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!

Have you tried offering them any of the milk products specifically designed for cats? I've seen a powdered goat milk with added probiotics at my local pet store, there's formula replacement for nursing kittens, and at least one other that I've seen.

Edit: Chewy seems to have quite a few "milk" products that are intended for cats: https://www.chewy.com/s?query=Milk&rh=PetType%3ACat
