[AT] Restriction on selling raw milk...JD "B"

[charlie hill]

Yep,  I told Steve he needed to get an urgent message out to all the dairy 
barn cats out in the country because they surely weren't aware of the danger 
they are in.   He owns a pet store in suburban MD.  What can I say.

Oh, wow... what a crock! Cats are lactose intolerant? Ha! I had a cat get
trapped in my shop (didn't know he was there when I locked it up). After a
couple days he lapped up some antifreeze. I gave him milk as the poison
antidote but we thought he was a goner. He's still here 7 years later... I
credit the milk with saving him.

I'd have to say that a little knowledge is dangerous for some folks. :)
