The fourth thing is milk.
Never give cats milk, it's bad for them.
My cat is a very bad eater (doesn't hate his food, just doesn't eat enough). The other day he was s c r e a m i n g at me while I ate a piece of cheddar cheese*. I bit off the tiniest corner (like 2-3 mm wide, seriously tiny) and gave it him. Never seen him go so wild at a piece of food. I fear I have created a cheese monster and will never know another moment of peace while eating cheese.
*Low-lactose cheese is okay as an infrequent treat. It's the lactose in milk that's bad for cats.
