Would you do this?

[Charliesmommy]

So last night I was sitting on the couch eating dinner with a big glass of milk sitting on the coffee table. I needed some salt from the kitchen so I went to get it and when I came back, half of my milk was gone, and there sits Charlie all innocent looking with a milk moustache!

Seeing as how this was the last of the milk, and I really really wanted a glass of milk, I drank the rest anyway. Then I heard my mother's voice in my head. YOU DRANK AFTER THE DOG???????? GO BRUSH YOUR TEETH!!!!

So, would you drink after your dog?

 

[mjb]

No, I don't drink after anyone who has backwash.

 

[Charliesmommy]

Hee Hee. I didn't really think of it that way. I was just thinking about germs. Oh well, Charlie is not a drooly dog.

 

[Laurelin]

Done that before. I figure if I'm going to get germs, I'd have already gotten them.

I came in the living room to find Beau ON TOP of the table once with his head stuck all the way inside a peanut butter jar, licking the sides of it.

 

[corgipower]

i wouldn't, but that's mainly because of the fur that would have been floating on top

CM...my dogs eat poop...so no...LOL.

:lol-sign: Do you let them lick your face?

Our cat will brazenly go over to any glass of water and stick his face in it and take a drink. You could have it sitting next to you or even holding it in your hand, he doesn't care. He just wants you water.

The other night, my wife handed me her cup and said "the cat drank it, can you get me a fresh cup?" (she was heading out onto the deck to pollute her lungs). I was standing there watching the last few minutes of my show and started drinking it. My wife came in and said, "did you just drink the cat water?" I said, "Yes, other than a couple of wiskers, it tasted fine".

I refuse to answer this on the grounds that it may incriminate me.

 

[PoodleMommy]

Ive dont it lots of times.

They always stick their head in my drinks (little heads allow them to get all the way in... lol).

I figure if I let them lick my face its no different really.

(^and dont anyone burst my bubble on that one, it is NO different, lol)

If I avoided all food the cats touched, I think I'd starve!

 

[Fruit bat]

First off let me just say , I wouldn't have had the milk EEWWW. And you are NASTAY!!!( I've had to get Dennis out of my coffee. Just what I need, a hyper chi all jacked up on coffee. And besides , I refuse to share .)

Translation: TM drinks after her dog.

 

[squirtsmom]

I;m sorry to say it wouldn't bother me a bit. Now from a stranger, I wouldn't.

 

[HoundedByHounds]

:lol-sign: Do you let them lick your face?

Deityofyourchoice, no! No licking above the knee is the rule here...easy because they're small. Mine actually aren't licky dogs tho...come to think of it!

 

[PoodleMommy]

haha... you sound just like me.. whenever anyone says anything about my animals touching my food/ drink.. I say Id rather eat/drink from them, then from half the people in the world.
:lol-sign:

 

[Sadie'smama]

I've never caught Sadie drinking out of my glass, but my cats do it all the time and yep I drink right on up

My husband says I'm going to get "feline madness"

 

[PoodleMommy]

I have three cats... I totally know where your coming from, lol.

Cats get themselves into everything and anything they want.

My one cat will leap up on the table and eat right off my plate while I am still sitting there!:yikes:

 

[Charliesmommy]

My husband says I'm going to get "feline madness"

Is that sort of like mad cow disease? LOL!

 

[mjb]

I've already said I wouldn't do it and why.

I'll add that I poured my son a cup of milk, put the milk carton in the fridge and turned around just in time to see the cat's head lowering into the cup. I shooed the cat away and gave the cup to my son. I, on the other hand, would not have drank it......but I didn't tell my son!

My rationalization is that I didn't see the cat actually touch the milk. I think I stopped him before contact was made!
