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!

    No milk is good for cats.

    They cannot digest it properly.

      They cannot digest milk for the same reason as humans that are lactose intolerant. Non-dairy milk is a whole other thing, with their own concerns for health effects on cats.

      I know cats are lactose intolerant, yes. That’s why we’re talking about soy milk instead. Thanks anyway.

      Learn the difference between what actual milk is and what soy “milk” is. They are not the same.
