The amount of chocolate that can be lethal to a human varies based on factors like body weight and individual sensitivity. Generally, it is estimated that the toxic dose of theobromine, a compound found in chocolate, is around 1000 mg per kilogram of body weight. This means that a person weighing 70 kg (about 154 lbs) could potentially experience severe toxicity from consuming around 7 kg (15.4 lbs) of Dark Chocolate. However, it's important to note that such large amounts are impractical to consume, and symptoms of chocolate toxicity can occur at much lower doses.

Can three licks of chocolate pudding kill your cat?

Three licks would not kill your cat if they are small licks, if it ate too much then it may die yes, if it did eat alot then you should take it to a vet. Otherwise I do not think that three licks would kill your cat no.


Is chocolate toxic to dogs?

Yes, the theobromine in chocolate is extremely toxic to dogs and can cause fatal heart arrhythmias as well as liver damage. The larger the dog and the smaller the amount of chocolate, the less likely your dog is to die from eating chocolate, although it doesn't take much chocolate to kill even a Great Dane. Also, there are toxicity differences between the different types of chocolate: milk chocolate has slightly less risk than semi-sweet baking chocolate or dark chocolate.
