You haven't tried xylitol, have you?

As a strict aside, please note that veterinarians have determined that xylitol is a powerful poison to dogs (perhaps cats, too, I just don't remember whether they are included). Don't let them sip it.

“perhaps cats, too, I just don’t remember whether they are included”

I googled it: equally toxic for cats, probably more so since the LD50 dose would so much smaller cats.
