I used one of those foot peel masks & was peeling the skin off. My beagle ran in & ate it all! 🤢

He also rolls in fox shit. And knocked over bathroom bin & took out tampon applicator & ... cleaned it 🤢

My staffy, when she was a puppy, ate the arses out of my DS' pants.

My lab loves snuffling about in cat poo in the garden, he often comes back in the house with a few nuggets stashed under his collar.

He also loves to rummage through the dirty washing for my worn pants and lick/chew the crotch. Especially if I'm on my period, in which case he has fished my used pads out of the bathroom bin.

He also eats his own sick, and has been known to try and eat his own shit.

Still wouldn't change him for the world. Creepy little bastard.

My dog found a full condom in a bush when we were out for a walk in the park. He ate it before I could stop him (not that I really wanted to touch it). It came out intact the other end in a couple of days. It was just gross.

Brilliant thread, thanks @QueenOfOversharing
2 stand outs for me are when my staffie dug something up on a park field, which he wouldn't let go of. It was some creature's rotting skull. He ate it all.
Then another time I was walking my 2 and a friend's dog, all on lead, all desperate to, I thought, smell some wee under a bush. Staffie managed to beat the other 2 to a hankie with shit in it. Obviously human. I couldn't get it off him and had a walk of shame on the high street with said shitty hankie hanging out of dog's mouth.

My late, great, Staffie, Jasper was quite legendary for various reasons.

He used to play 'Bullseye' in stage productions of Oliver! and, in his biggest and most prestigious one, he waited until press night to execute a perfectly-timed bottom-shuffle-wipe onstage.

One of his favourite things whilst out was to drink deeply from a large puddle WHILE simultaneously weeing into it.

Our lovely little pooch ate horseshit whilst walking in the hills.

We came home and half an hour later she done her usual 'let me out the back door' look.

I let her out and she promptly puked up all the horseshit she ate. Just pure shit, coming out of her mouth.

I was gagging washing it up and almost puked myself.

It is THE single most disgusting thing o have ever seen on my life.

Our long-departed labrador ate literally anything. She once ate a plastic smurf (macdonalds toy) and I found a dog poo with eyes looking at me in the garden. She also ate a tub of glitter and we had sparkly poos for. days.

While I was getting passionate on the sofa with a boyfriend my cat hopped onto the back of the sofa and emptied the contents of a burst abscess all over the back of the sofa and up the wall behind us - it smelt absolutely vile. The only thing I was passionate about for the rest of that evening was trying to get the stench out of the sofa!

bucketofcoffee · 17/09/2020 16:14

Not disgusting as such, but DCat is a kleptomaniac, he brings home random bits of barbecue. We've had chicken wings, a chicken breast, a large lump of ham, a sausage...all still warm. His latest find has been packets of dog biscuits. Twice now he's sat in the front garden looking pleased with his find. I've no idea where the biscuits are coming from as there aren't many houses round here with dogs. I just follow my nose for where the meat has come from!

DDog has to be shut out of the room when the other cats (not the klepto one) needs the little tray. He can sit there with his mouth to their bums as they poo. We cottoned on quickly to that trick.

MrsCat1 · 17/09/2020 15:55

While I was in bed my lovely cat jumped on the bed and headed under the duvet. He started rubbing against my legs and I was just starting to think how lovely and soft his fur was when he peed on my legs! Lovely! Confused

@Bridewel1

My cat used to catch maybugs. For those that don’t know they start as chafer grubs living in soil for 3 years eating decaying plant material or plant roots then emerge in may/June for about 6 weeks as huge flying beetles called maybugs. My cat kept bringing them into the house and one time crept right up to my husbands face with one in her mouth whilst he was in bed. Ugh!
Omg I almost cried reading this. Maybugs are horrific.
JorisBonson · 17/09/2020 15:43

The same cat also walked in his own poo then walked all over me and the bed while I was asleep.

There's a theme here.

JorisBonson · 17/09/2020 15:42

My cat dropped half a dead mouse into my hair when I was asleep. I sleep with my hair tied up now.

ReginaPhalangee · 17/09/2020 15:41

My whippet ate my other dog's shit as she was doing it. It didn't even touch the floor Envy

thisstooshallpass · 10/09/2020 21:05

Shits and turns round to eat it.

BlessedBeTheFruitCake · 11/07/2020 17:13

Our cat ate the string from a beef joint he found in the bin. I had to pull it out of his bum when he went for a poo🤢

bouncydog · 11/07/2020 17:11

Just found this thread and found it very funny so here goes:

My afghan hound took a shower under a Heifer when it was having a poo - and I had to walk it home on the lead!!

My cocker spaniel appeared to be losing it's bowel via it's bottom. On closer investigation DH discovered it had stolen something wrapped in plastic, eaten it and the "bowel" was in fact the plastic filling up each time the dog farted!!!!

aidelmaidel · 06/04/2020 03:19

DDog loves to wear poopreferably humanbut also likes to eat it, including fresh out of the potty. DDog also likes snot and bloodnosebleeds or periods, she isn't choosyand once ate a used tampon, which came slithering out intact a few angst-ridden days later. She will enthusiastically lick up the contents of her anal glands after we squeeze them. When we get up for a post-sex wee, DDog will clean up the wet patch. She has form for knocking over the toddler in her enthusiasm to excavate child's nose.

That's just dogs, though. The nastiest one was my first rabbit, who had not been fixed and who was decidedly territorial. He lived inside and he used to hump people's feet. This was just sort of awkward and cute till he'd spaff all over their ankles.

Howzaboutye · 29/03/2020 22:53

Omg I can't believe I've read this whole thread! Gross so gross!
I didn't like dogs before reading this, and I definitely don't now!!!

OLP2019 · 25/03/2020 11:53

My dog has raised the bathroom bin and eaten used tampons and then done poo with string attached !

QueenOfOversharing · 01/03/2020 22:54

Animals are really grim.

i missed a few of the last posts and m lying in bed, next to my 2 dogs, chuckling and gagging in equal measure...

But I was most impressed at the local vets when an embarrassed owner brought in beagle who had managed to snatch and lodge a menstrual cup in it's throat..

honestly, why do people put up with beagles?

My cat has carried the baby's bellybutton cord stump AND a mooncup over the fence and abandoned them in some poor neighbours' garden.

More mooncup shenanigans. Ughhhhh...

None of them mine, but:

Dog - ate cowpats. Whole cowpats.

Cat - killed BABY RABBITS, brought them in and disembowelled on the best rug.

Dog which belonged to my DM as a child - once bit the tail/fleshy back end off a tortoise. Poor tortoise had to be put down.

Rainbowbrite11 · 04/02/2020 19:36

I've got two dogs when one has a poo the other one licks his arse hole after.
He licks the glass in the park, the other day he licked all round the poo bin in the park.
He sticks his head right in the kitchen bin if he get a chance.

habibihabibi · 03/02/2020 15:16

My gross dog ate the poop out of the potty while I was wiping my toddlers bot.

I used to have a cat who liked elastic bands; she had great fun with them. Then she was allowed outside, into the big wide world and she discovered that she really really liked WORMS!

You haven't lived if you haven's got out of bed into a lovely cold pile of live worms..

She was very generous with them [boak]
