Back story. My cat is crazy. He likes vape fog. He will stare at it until it completely dissipates. He will watch it waft across the floor. He will even walk in it, raising his paws as if he were walking in snow. BUT.. the funniest thing I ever saw him do was....

I was blowing smoke rings.. the cat, being nosy and liking vape fog, trotted over and sniffed one of the rings... Ever heard of a vape trick called bull ring? Where the vaper blows a ring and french inhales it, so it looks like a ring in a bulls nose..the cat did that! It was hilarious!

Just another fear mongering blurb to keep folks scared :facepalm:

^^^^^^^^ From that article: ^^^^^^^^

For an ordinary cat (weighing around 4 kg), the lower dose used in the study would be 6.4 grams (or around 12 percent of their diet), which is a hell of a lot in comparison to the amounts you could realistically expect a cat to inhale by being in the room with somebody who’s vaping. If you’re mixing e-liquid and allow your cat to literally drink or roll around in your PG (which would require so many omissions of common sense it’s hard to even comprehend), then obviously there would be some cause for concern, but if you’re just using an e-cig there’s very little to worry about.

The best advice is to just exercise some caution about where you blow the vapor, as in, don’t blow it directly into your cat’s face (even if it’s funny), and don’t vape all over their food or water. The aim of the game is to minimize your cat’s exposure, but as long as you avoid these more obvious forms of exposure vaporized PG isn’t anything to be concerned about. Vapers who’ve asked vets whether PG from vaping is anything to worry about have received this same response.

Naw, nothing like blowing it in the cats face.. I blew a ring and the cat chased it, and sniffed it. It was nearly dissipated by the time he got to it. And he just likes to watch the vape fog settle and drift. He's far to lazy to actually get up to do it, but he did like that ring.

and they say the same about dogs and chocolate. My dog ate a chocolate bar once a week for nearly every week of his life, and he got hit by a car at age 14. I doubt the chocolate had much to do with that.
Depends on the chocolate. Milk chocolate has a low amount of cocoa and a chocolate bar probably won't hurt him. However, dark chocolate with a very high amount of cocoa may be a different story.

Also depends on the size of the dog. I had a pup who, when I left the room, ate a pack of cigarettes and drank my whole cup of coffee I had left on the coffee table. He was fine. I made sure to never leave my Scotch unattended after that.

Well I'll have to scratch that one off my reasons to continue vaping.

My cat just usually makes really weird faces at my clouds. The dogs don't really seem to care.

Depends on the chocolate. Milk chocolate has a low amount of cocoa and a chocolate bar probably won't hurt him. However, dark chocolate with a very high amount of cocoa may be a different story.

Years ago, one of my dogs jumped on the coffee table and ate most of a package of Fudge Stripe cookies while we were out of the room. My late wife lost her mind, calling the vet in a panic, and the vet told her that unless it was baker's chocolate, she shouldn't worry.

Well, get this... The dog would share with my sister or myself, so we could have a bite of his bar.. but if either of my parents took a bite, he wouldn't eat it, he would throw himself down in a corner and wouldnt eat the bar. They had to go out on a special trip and buy him a new bar. He used to vape cocoa flavored juice too... *innocent look* (that was just to keep the post on topic :evil:) lol

I've had to call the vet for a number of dog dining woes. Not dining on dogs...but things that dogs have dined on. The other day, I took my dog to the park and she never really pants. I've only had here for about a year. She was panting and I noticed the back of her tongue was black.
I called like 3 urgent dog care places only to discover that that's just what her tongue looks like :p

This is hilarious! I am seriously laughing out loud here at my desk.

Your cat is now my personal hero!

My cats constantly have to sniff my drip tips. They'll even grab my arm and pull it to them to get a whiff. My dachshund mix, on the other hand, is terrified by the sight of my mod. If I pick it up she whale eyes at it, sinks to the ground and scampers off.
Ever try eating cake when the cat has a sweet tooth? Little monster.. Jumped up on the arm of the chair, reached over and grabbed my wrist, that was holding a fork full of cake, and literally.. took the food right out of my mouth.. held my wrist and ate the cake right off the fork.

Yes, I once had an alcoholic cat who was particularly fond of vodka martinis. I learned to never let a martini out of my sight.
Speaking of Scotch, our Scottish Terrier (22 lbs.) ate a whole box of Russell Stover chocolates and it didn't faze him in the least. However, several of the 18 lava rocks he ate required surgical removal. He did poop out most of them, but re-ate a few before he could be stopped.
