What about wild cats/felids, do they ever indulge in fermented rotting fruit that becomes alcoholic?
Fermented rotting fruit are usually wine, not beer.
i dont think beer is so common in nature tho. I’ve only heard of rotting fruit that various animals actuvely seek
That’s why I’m saying that it’s wine …
I’ve definitely heard of cats drinking someone’s unattended beer. Or like if it’s spilled on the floor, licking some. It’s an immediate vet visit kind of situation. I think it’s just curiosity from the smell.

Alcohol poisoning from beer, wine, and liquor is rare in cats, since they typically find these beverages distasteful. However, it still can occur.
I guess most wouldn’t go for it but some are curious and even a lick can poison them pretty badly. I think some cats like the smell of yeast a lot, so they’re probably extra susceptible.
