OK, so it's not just my loony cat

Wondering if maybe my cat shouldn't have been eating cookie dough, I googled "cat eating dough" and came across the following cute picture.  I love how the cat's face clearly says, "hmm.  Perhaps I shall partake of your offering" while the dog is wilded eyed and a-quiver, "oh jeebus om nom nom thank you thaaaank you om nom".

Other googling results seem to indicate that only raw yeast dough is a problem - butter, cream cheese and flour dough should be fine (if awfully rich).  So that's a relief.
