Yes, cats should only have dry food.
Dairy products are actually bad for them as well, adult cats that is, 
kittens I understand it's OK, so the milk, ice cream, cheese thing is not 
good.

I let my cats taste just about everything I eat, but I eat lots of spicy 
stuff, they have learned that it's better to not bug me ;-)
