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!
how about oat milk instead for the kitties (i personally like it better then soy milk anyway)

I just gave them some of mine. Since I’m a vegan, I need a replacement for regular milk. Only soy milk is a real substitute as it’s the only plant based milk with protein, all the others are basically tasty water nutrician wise, plus whatever vitamins they added. For my cats, I think it’s better to just buy something made for cats instead.
Pea milk has a similar amount of protein to soya and dairy. It doesn’t have the beany flavour of soya (it’s the closest to dairy in terms of flavour IMHO) and works well in hot drinks.
I have no idea if it’s safe for cats though; it’s typically made from yellow split peas.
