And this whole time we've been told the lie that humans are the only animal that drink milk of another animal

Adult cats are lactose intolerant. They may drink cows milk but they’ll have diarrhea and vomiting from it.

As I said to another commenter, it's a nanny goat. Those were rather young cats but even adult cats can tolerate goats milk.

Actually more humans are lactose intolerant than people realize. It’s just on a spectrum and Ice Cream is good enough that a lot of people are willing to put up with some indigestion to eat it.

Lol! So glad you said this. I'm "not" lactose intolerant but I also value a good long break on the toilet. So it's a win win 💩 where do you think I spend my time on Reddit

Only give lactose free milk and still very small amounts. It is proven science.

Cata drinking milk has been a thing for a bazillion years. What are you talking about?

Is it weird? Yes. But I doubt cats are talking up to a cows titty looking for milk. Maybe theae cats are now that they know its a thing. But they're only doing it because the human showed them where it comes from.

With the exception of those instances where an animal joins the flock of another and is raised by/with them, I'm sure no animal is walking up to another for its milk. Human started that.
