Dave, was there research involved in that answer, or is it something you "just sorta knew"?

I saw something about it on the news last year, I think from the UK. A shop was selling cups of the coffee for some outlandish amount, like $100 a cup, with the proceeds going to charity. Sorry, I wouldn't buy or drink cat poop coffee even for a worthy charity.

It's a civet cat, which really isn't a cat. I don't think there are civet cats in Ohio outside of zoos. And there's that little matter of growing Sumatran coffee in your climate.

OTOH if your cat eats coffee berries and only partially digests them, maybe you should put on some rubber gloves and start picking them out of the litter box. Then when you take your business plan to an investment banker, be sure to record the conversation for us. ;)

Ends with their ashes jointly in tin boxes on the top of some mountain they always wanted to climb. Cute flic.

"You're shitting me?" "Cats beat me to it!" ;D :mrgreen:

I'd give it a try if I had a chance to. I eat bee puke (= honey) and lobster with the guts intact, so why bother about that cat? I've seen stuff more gross than this in most sausage factories:

No thanks, I'll just stick to my Eight O'Clock Coffee. And ~~bee poop~~ honey on my cereal.
