Cat's are lactose intolerant. Sure they will drink milk because it apparently tastes good to them but it often leads to soft stools and other digestion problems. Any decent vet will tell you not to give milk to a cat -- that is why they sell the fake stuff in the catfood aisle (and, of course, to make money). Kinda like dogs and chocolate -- if my dog finds a piece of chocolate he is in heaven, apparently it can actually send him there. Funny thing about cats and humans, they are the only two animals that will hunt for fun when there is no necessity.
