I HAD a new Siamese cat cup for my water

Hadn't thought of it like that before

I'm afraid if I got a cup with my own face on it, I'd scare myself every time I picked it up!

I dread to think how many times I have drunk from it without realising that secret cat drinking, gargling, playing and tootsie washing sessions have occurred. A few bacteria make the body grow stronger I guess

LOL Great pics.

Tabasco is so cute.

LOL Nicole - those pics., are the best! If I threw out every cup that Bagel had stuck her head in - only if it contains tea though, she hates coffee - I'd be buying cups on a weekly basis!!

If you had a dishwasher - it kills all the germies!! But whats the odd germ between friends? Dare I admit that the three musketeers even lick plates that have contained something yummy?

The saying here is - no need to wash it the cats have cleaned it!

I remember first time when my mom saw that WE GIVE THE PLATE TO THE CAT TO LICK IT!!!

She was Shocked! She got used to it, still doesn't like it, but there is nothing she can do. When she's visiting us, she washes every plate before she uses it. Why???
Nicole, they are sweet, as always

It's probably safer to drink out of a cup your cat has used than one another human has used. Different germs!

Bosun has this water tower in the bathroom. Lately she tries to play with the bubbles as it refills the bowl. Then she puts her paws in the bowl. That's why there's so much hair in there every time I refill it. Silly kitties!

I have read one day that our germs can be more dangerous for cats than theirs for us. But with cats that share our lives like ours do how can you tell where our germs end and theirs begin?
I am from a generation in which children ate dirt outside and had less allergies etc. than today's children.
