That’s funny. My friend’s cat used to try sneaking drinks from our beer if it was left out. We had to start using covered mugs. Really loved stouts and porters, no clue why.

My wife knows a corgi breeder, and he had a 14+ year old corgi that got his own beer every night.

Is a single beer for a corgi like a six pack for a gamer?

My cat literally makes this small digging movement when smelling on a cup of Coffee, just like when he was on the toilet.

Same, lol. Could be interpreted as an insult but I feel lucky that she won’t try to drink it herself.

What a sweet kitty trying to cover your poop for you since you were clearly never taught how.

My cat has a caution label on her medical records because she gets so aggressive at the vet.

Caffeine is toxic to cats.

Rocket is the only being that deserves decaf, then.

Decaf still has caffeine, just less. I have no idea on the safe level for cats, but don’t assume decaf is safe. (I know this is a joke, but it needed to be said anyway.)

That is good to know, thank you. I didnt know this, good to be careful. I looked it up. 36 to 68 mg is fatal. So a couple sips isnt bad, but, being in a coffee shop it probably wouldn’t be hard for Rocket to get enough to make him sick.

When you factor in weight, that’s not too far off from where people start dying

It’s all about the degree of toxicity. Like chocolate and dogs, it takes a lot more than you’d think to be lethal.

Not wrong, but on the other hand, two of the Guinness verified longest living cats were said to drink a small bit of coffee with cream regularly.

Both were owned by the same guy and a 38 year old cat is a bit controversial, but: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creme_Puff_(cat)
