I’m actually not too sure how right you are here, my last cat was a chunky boy at 7kg, let’s say that the upper end 68mg is the LD50, I’m roughly 70kg, 680mg of coffee would be very uncomfortable and unpleasant, but I don’t think I’d be hitting the LD50.
LD50 in humans is probably around 100mg/kg, fatal doses are 150-200mg/kg
When you factor in weight, that’s not too far off from where people start dying
Yeah, it really doesn’t take much caffeine to kill a person. Plants literally started using it as a pest deterrent.
Roughly about 10g of caffeine for a 70kg human is where it’s starts to generally be recognised as lethal
