I got to clean up kitty barf last night.
My own fault. A few days ago when I finished some cereal, I put the bowl down and it was immediately filled by two kitty heads who licked the nearly-dry bowl clean. It didn't seem to affect D.J. at all, so last night when they were both pestering me, I left a little milk in the bowl when I set it down.
Big mistake.
About 5 to 10 minutes later, I heard that sound which is unmistakable to anyone who has ever lived with cats. Repeatedly. So I sighed, grabbed a roll of paper towels, and followed the trail of barf spots through the house until I reached the one where he had apparently gotten it all out of his system.
Half an hour or less later, of course. he was playing and eating again like normal.
I'm pretty certain he must be lactose-intolerant. I've heard of cats having that condition, but he is the first one I've ever "owned" who seems to consistently barf whenever he has regular milk. I once tried giving him some of that "kitty milk product" you can buy in the pet food section at the store, which among other things is supposed to be lactose-free, and he seemed to have no problem with it. I guess I'll just have to keep that on hand and give them some of that whenever I get milk for myself.
Can you say "s-p-o-i-l-e-d"?
