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.

My cats have never had a problem with milk, and so despite the rumor of lactose intolerance, I continue to give them it (in small quantities, of course). They also eat fruit, crackers, green peas, chips, potato in any form, lint, and bits of (fake) Christmas tree that shed onto the floor. They will not touch chocolate, which is good, because it can kill them as well.
