Hi, every morning I have breakfast with unsweetened soy milk. My cats kill me if they can’t empty my bowl, but because I add stuff like raisins which include sugar, I give them some plain soy milk instead. The vet said it’s “probably fine”, but I want to know for certain. Does anyone know for certain soy milk is or isn’t bad for cats? Thanks!

    Wow, this is exactly the answer I was hoping for, thank you.

    I had vegan friends who fed their cat vegan food. I’m a vegan too, but humans are omnivores, cats are carnivores. Feeding cats vegan food is bad in my opinion, I see it as animal abuse. It comes with a lot of health risks which are similar to what I read in the articles you posted. It all makes sense.

    From now on, they will get a little bit of unsweetened soy milk once in a while, not every day. (I have to find a middle ground, otherwise they will kick me out)

    Thanks! I really appreciate it :)

      Your opinion is fact: feeding an obligate carnivore vegan food is actual animal abuse.

      Also please dont feed them (or anything or anyone else) raw food right now, kibble is safest until this bird flu shit is done with.
