I agree and wouldn’t want to undercut that. This was powdered chocolate jello pudding mix in a pie and heavily mixed with cool whip and she was only into it for moments. So definitely not good for her, like most of the human food that she adores trying to steal, but she is doing fine 24 hours later.

"very dangerous" is a stretch. It's mainly large quantities of dark chocolate we need to be concerned with. Milk chocolate won't give them much more than a touch of diarrhea. Incomplete list of things that are way worse for dogs than chocolate: onions, garlic, lavender, grapes (especially raisins), xilitol (commonly found in peanut butter), avocado, cooked bones (especially poultry but any bone can become brittle when cooked).

way worse for dogs than chocolate

we're talking about cats

also i have never heard of xylitol in peanut butter; is this some american thing? I have sometimes seen sweetened peanut butter but I don't eat it, it tastes bad. I suppose there would be demand for sugar free sweetened peanut butter

The post I replied to mentioned both dogs and cats. I don't know a ton about cats and can't comment on them but this "chocolate is the worst thing for dogs" trope is dangerous and I try to correct it whenever I can.

Just in case anyone didn't know, the way I didn't know, do NOT feed cats cheese. 1) they fucking LOVE cheese, and 2) they can't splice cheese, so they get super fat super quick, and also their poop turns semi liquid and gets stuck to things like that protoplasm goo from Aliens.

I'm guessing maybe an octo-coronation of autocorrect?

Maybe. How would a dog get fat if they couldn't digest cheese? Wouldn't it just pass through their body?

There isn't really much lactose left in cheese (actual cheese, can't say about random industrial stuff you have in the US).

i mean REALLY lactose intolerant. give a dachshund a small cheddar cube and then put it on you shoulder to use as a turdzooka

For real? Dogs are breaking into cheese cells, extracting the DNA and stealing cheese genes?

The captured picture is incredible.

Verdict: Extremely obviously guilty.

Sentence: One whole week of only dry food.

bad kitty!

Yes, but cats can't taste sweet so they don't normally bother with it.

I have the same SDRE tee from the Diary anniversary tour. Plus, you've got a cat and chocolate pie - good life choices all around.

SDRE is one of my all time bands and their song 8 is responsible for opening up my mind to a whole new style of music. The diary tour was amazing but a huge bonus was the opening their encore with 8. Instant tears.

You should have gone to the vet immediately, not waited to see if she died!
