Chocolate can be lethal for cats & Dogs. Although most cats won't eat it on their own, they can be coaxed to eat it by owners and others who think they are giving the cat a treat. The toxic agent in chocolate is theobromine. It's in all kinds of chocolate, even white chocolate.

Adult cats can technically drink milk. Just because cats can drink milk doesn't mean they should, though. Cats should only get milk as a rare treat as opposed to an everyday item. Adult cats are drawn to the creamy allure of milk, but only some can drink and digest it.

I've given him choco milk on at least 3 other occasions. He probably got less than 1 oz this time in a small Occupied Japan saucer.

Tut is a house cat now. I brought him in last night and spent the day here with him to bond some more. He was a little more uneasy about being inside this time but he likes the bed.

Especially when I'm in it so he can lay on me. We stayed in bed all day and he slept all day.

He can rest easy now. The Humane Society won't pick him up, he won't get hit by a car or have to be outside in the cold this winter. He was in a fight the other night and his face shows it a bit around his mouth.

B. F. Skinner, the Father of Behaviorism, taught pigeons to play ping pong. I've been a Behaviorist since 1975.
If my Dad can teach pigeons I can teach Tut to use the toilet. Here's how to do it.



Most importantly, always use copious Positive Reinforcement for appropriate behavior.
Don't draw attention to or use negative reinforcement for being a bad kitty.
