Wtf? First, isn't milk bad for cats? Also, I don't get the raw milk shit (unless you're a farmer and it's literally coming from your cows and you haven't gotten around to boiling it yet). Hell, I don't get why people are so obsessed with drinking animal milk at all. What's wrong with people?

raw milk issues aside, milk isn't necessarily bad for cats but it has to be watered down, they don't do well with it "straight'.
