NaMeCaFsays...It's like kitty crack... well, the other kitty crack.

xxovercastxxNo, really, never feed your cat dairy. It's not good for them.
AeroMechanicalsays...Also, you probably don't want them licking on the nozzle of the can. All three of those cats had probably spent at least a solid half hour that day wholly engrossed in licking their butts and probably also eating vomit if the opportunity happened to present itself.
deathcow> you probably don't want them licking on the nozzle
Actually I worked as a barista for years and this was the fastest way to clean things when customers were lined up back to back.

Thumpersays...I would have given them a little less. Dairy may be bad but it's more about the calorie intake. Most animals are lactose intolerant, but in that there are still many individuals of each species that handle milk fine. After that it's about the calorie intake. Our cats love milk, so occasionally I take a shot glass and fill it 1/4 of the way and let them paw the milk out. Never noticed any Diarrhea and I know the calories are around 8-10. Which is fine for them.
Retroboysays...I BUY MY CATS AND ENGLISH MASTIFF A TWELVE POUND BLOCK OF CHEESE FROM COSTCO AND FEED IT TO THEM JUST BEFORE THE INLAWS COME OVER
okay, no I don't, but you have to admit it's one hell of an idea.
deathcowon a side note, my cat loves grilled Alaskan salmon
noimsThe thing I love most about that is calling a cat Minion. Nice.
SeesThruYouActually, there's no scientific basis for that statement. Cats CAN eat dairy, but the rule is, you shouldn't feed it to them REGULARLY. A treat like this once in a while, and in small amounts, is perfectly fine. Any properly trained and reputable veterinarian will tell you the same.
I grew up on a dairy farm where the cats (dozens of them) were always finding some milk spilled somewhere in the milk parlor, and they never became ill. I'm talking about UNPASTEURIZED milk, no less. Hell, they used to eat the flesh of dead cows and pigs without any issues either, so trust me when I say that a lousy dab of whipped cream isn't doing any harm.

xxovercastxxThere is. Lactose intolerance is the norm for adult mammals. Humans who come from dairy-heavy cultural backgrounds are an exception.
This study focuses on humans, but it tells you this right in the abstract.
You're right that a tiny squirt of whipped cream isn't going to hurt, but I don't see the point in getting them interested in it in the first place. I wouldn't want to train them to seek out something that's going to make them sick if I'm not there to control portions.
