Disgusting or Not Disgusting?

I also have to confess, whatever I am eating, my cats share with me. They get drink from my cups, and food from my plates. I let them do what they want, those sad eyes always get me! Call me nasty, I am gonna finish my pepsi, cat slobber and all :eek: and for ice cream, I let them lick all they want and for cake I let them stick their paws all in it, hehe=) (It grosses out my husband when I let them drink my drinks, because afterwards I have to pick out kitty hair before I continue.) I would rather drink after my kitties than 1/2 the people I know=) haha Have a good day all! :D

Well I guess I am disgusting:p No I am even worse because not only do I let them eat from our dishes, I share my food and keep on eating. THIS grosses my hubby out though. He will give up his cereal when he is finished but won't let them have any while he is eating.

We are the same way. Justin and I both will share with the cats and birds off of our plates, no problem, it doesen't bother us one bit. We don't share with the dogs as often tho, but if they steel a taste it doesen't bother us. :)

My cats eat off of my plate, drink out of my glass. The thing that bothers me, though, is when Dakky sticks his whole paw down into the glass. I sometimes inspect it to make sure nothing is in there. He he he.

In the am, I put cottage cheese and fruit into a bowl, and put the bowl on the table while I go about feeding Tex and the others. Dakky knows to jump up there and eat the cottage cheese. I don't care. I figure he is helping me with my diet. Tex, Georgie, Monte and Dakky know to wait their turn and drink the milk from my cereal in the am, if I am having that. I let them drink some right away, then I eat, and then, I hold the bowl for them.

Tex will eat off my plate, and he knows that when I make small cuts with the knife, it is 'his' food. It goes on the corner edge..and we eat in companionable silence. Course, the other day, he did have a huge piece of chicken in his mouth, looking up at me with eyes that said something between, "What? What?" and "Was this for Me?" I hadn't had a chance to cut it into small pieces yet. HE was just going to take the whole wing.

As for either cats or dogs mouths being cleaner than ours...that isn't so. That is just an old tale. I don't care, however.

When I got married there was a rule imposed by my husband that no pets were to eat off the plates. Well that all went down the drain when we got Ripley. He would beg for ice cream and my husband would to get a paper plate to feed him a little and that lasted about two times then he started letting Ripley lick his bowl.

He holds firm on Disney not licking our plates.:confused: To me cat, dog, whats the difference? I've seen them all lick the dark side of the moon.

:eek:

I always "share" with the FurKids...
sometimes UN-knowingly :rolleyes:

Former (RB :( ) Shepherd/Husky Shadow became a bit of an
opportunist after her adoption off the streets -
she'd apparently learned to never pass up a meal when opportunity
presented itself...

I'd whipped up TWO giant Dagwood-style sammiches -
LOADED with meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mustard.
Shadow lay on the floor in the kitchen, *watching* intently...

Sammich Construction complete, I had a Major Brane F@rt and
decided I just HAD to do ?something? in the basement -
grabbed a quick *byte* of Sammich #1 and returned it to the
plate - sitting on the kitchen counter.

Returning, I grabbed the plate and moved to the dining room -
*wondering* why Shadow wasn't in sight and *begging* for her *taste*.
Hmmmmmmm... :confused:
I MADE TWO - did I eat one ALREADY???
Finished off Sammich #2, saving a smidgen for Shadow -
who ignored my call of "Wanna Byte?" ... *strange*

As I was rinsing off the plate, (*womdering* WHY I was still HUNgree
after eating TWO giant sammiches)...
I :eek: stepped in sumpin *squisshy* under the counter... :eek:

A Close examination revealed ~~~
..One Tomato Slice,
..One Lettuce Leaf,
..Three Pickles,
..and a small smttering of Bread Crumz -
all piled up under the kitchen cabinet overhang...
:mad:

"Oh SHADOW, Dear - please come HERE!!" (NO response!)

She was located - UNDER the BigBed - frantically *thumping* her tail
and *licking her chops*. :rolleyes:

We marched back into the kitchen and sat down to *discuss* my
findings of what she apparently didn't care for on the sammich menue...

I swear I head a distinct Dawggie *BuRRp* mid-way through
our *discussion*!

:D

We don't let ours eat off of our plates, but I don't think it is disgusting. Saphirah and Samson are a bit on the fluffy side, so they don't need people food. As someone said, that's what dishwashers are for.

LOL LOL Interesting question. I don't make it a habit, but I sometimes let the kids lick our plates or bowls clean when we are finished. I don't think it's disgusting. I guess it would be if the plate looked so clean, that it went back in the cabinet! :eek: LOL

Scooter loves to lick the condensation off of water glasses! Does that count? LOL

Here it is especially one kitty who thinks he is human and who is treated like one. He is called Filou which means Rascal in English and he lives up to his name!

This kitty has wrapped his PawPaw around his paw and so they can be seen sharing some icecream :D

I can tell I have plenty of disgusting company around here!!;)

I let my cats have a taste of what I'm eating, but only safe food (chicken, lamb, cheese; pork ribs and chocolate are RIGHT OUT!)

Not too long after I adopted her, Bosun did a mega nawtee. None of my cats had ever bothered food left on the counter. Well, I had this chicken grinder cut in half. I ate half and left half on the counter for later. I went to get it, and on the floor were a bun, lettuce, tomatoes and a VERY smug looking Bosun. Leftovers go behind cat proof doors now!:D

Mishka and I share cereal every morning - it is our ritual.
I have a few spoonfuls and he has one. And so on.

For dinner his favorite is sushi - and he always gets some - once he ate a big chunk of wasabe. Poor thing - you should have seen the look of surprise on his face! (he drank lots of water and was fine - thank goodness)

So I guess I too, am disgusting. But hey - I figure I kiss him on the lips all the time - so what is the difference?

Boots, da Kat, tries that first;
after he's elbow'd off a couple times -
he tries it from the arm of the kliner chair...
And is finally elbow'd from that spot...

Mad Dash around behind the kliner,
a mighty Leap to the back of the kliner chair;
and then he crouches off to the side of my head -
(successfully preventing my head-butting him off)
and begins puRRRRing in my ear...

He'll *watch* for a few spoons - *timing* his move...

Klawz OUT, the Mighty Ize Kreme Hunter LUNGES at
his quary ~ the Rising Spoon ~

And :eek: *PLOP* ~
"Dad" has a glob of ice creme melting on his shoulder :mad: ~
wiffa KAT happily *licking it up*! :rolleyes:

All these are hilarous! Gotta love it!:D

OK...ok.....so I am REALLY disgusting.....just last night I was eating a piece of pizza and Vegas and Reno were both sitting on my lap....it went something like this:

-I take a bite, Vegas and Reno take a bite, I take a bite.....Vegas and Reno take a bite.....

I even got a pawsie or two on the pizza slice and STILL took a bite!!! Oh the shame!!! Whatever will I do?!?

*faints*

:rolleyes:
