I know cats will drink cow milk from the teat. Granted, I've only seen cats lap milk from a cow teat being expressed by a human, not saunter up to the udder and latch on.
Many animals will accept the milk of another if offered.0 -

Oh! You know him? Wow! Small World!
He actually isn't overweight...he struggled to gain weight in a way very similar to how some are to lose weight...What happened is his gut came back and and his face is as puffy as I have ever seen it. But he still has all his muscle. I ran into him at the gym, he actually said he hadn't changed much of his food...still used the muscle prep meals but he drinks milk now... so for breakfast and post workout and a glass with dinner.

I know that in order to gain fat you must be in a calorie surplus because you know laws od thermodynamics
You think something magical happened and he gained fat out of nowhere?7 -

Can anyone name an animal that cooks its food prior to eating it?2 -

Do you cook your food? Since no other animal does that you shouldn't because it is unnatural3

Okay so one article about a few stray cats and a bird in one particular region...only observed once. So its not natural in nature...its a anomaly?0 -

Specifically speaking about animal species. Ants eat pretty much anything....kinda like flys, roaches, maggots....so on and so forth. You are giving Google its workout today. Thumbs up for doing research!!! Yaaas Girl!!0 -

Oh good. I assumed I was on ignore. Don't forget the ants. Wading through google for more has been an annoying sea of vegan propoganda sites. I'm not an expert on the animal kingdom and can't say whether it's natural or an anomaly. You asked if it happened in a single other animal and I got curious and happened to find a few examples. If you're moving the goalposts then it's no fun playing the research game.6 -

How dare you "thumbs up" me. You asked a question. I got curious and you poo-poohed everything I posted. Don't condescend to me now.9 -

You claimed it was unnatural/wrong for humans to drink milk because no other animal drinks another animal's milk. By that logic, cooking food is unnatural/wrong because no other animal cooks their food.
Or does your logic only apply to situations that you benefit from?5 -
I'm sure if more animals had thumbs and our level of intelligence, more animals would drink milk "in nature."
I for one do not understand this argument, considering we are animals ourselves, and I don't understand the idea that just because humans make/do something makes it "unnatural" for whatever reason. Excuse us for being naturally smarter than other animals.
And yes, you need a calorie surplus to gain weight. Dairy alone will not make anyone gain weight.6 -

Wait what? Condensed you? I was being sincere. I am thrilled when people do their own research....I think its great. I do understand how tone of voice can be taken wrong over a forum with so much misplaced aggression. Sorry I didn't phrase my wording better. Have a good night Diannethegeek. Best wishes.0 -
My mistake, I thought this was planet based nutrition, as in getting in enough calories for bench pressing planets.
Instead I find you humans arguing about if animals weaker than you get to keep their sustenance and life energies to themselves.
Look, if the cows don't want you taking their milk, maybe they'll evolve some hands to keep you from it. Until then, aren't you just disrespecting the work of the farmer who risks his life milking those cows - the are one of the more dangerous animals on your planet by injuries to people after all.
A little research on what happens to the dairy cows to get their milk might explain why they might be a little agressive. *IN My Opinion* Have a good evening.0 -

You ignored my posts for an hour while still demanding others produce these anomalous animals. When you do reply to me, you move the goalposts, call me a "girl," and congratulate me on doing research as though I haven't been in the 4 years I've been active here. Yes, I find all of that condescending.8
