To think animals are just disgusting?

[Stinkyminkymoo]

I'm house sitting for my parents and am sitting on the sofa bf the baby and the cat has shot across the room back & forth because she has a shit stuck in her bum. Got DH to pull it out but luckily for both him & the cat it fell out before he did.

He then left to go home and the dog was sick. Then ate it. Boak.

This is why I love my horses, no arse-then-face licking, no eating-shit/vom and no rolling in stinky dead animals.

Anyone else got rank animals?

Ooops meant to go at cheesy dong not smile at it!

[Chottie]

I can't laugh at all..... I keep saying OMG, OMG, OMG. And now I realise why I do not have any animals at all. I don't think I could do all any of this stuff >

You must really, really love your animals.....

Have just sprayed wine all over laptop- hilarious!!!
Although it's not just animals who are disgusting. I watched a person on the till in Tescos yesterday (during a lull - was 2 tills down from said person) excavate her nose, examine at length her treasured find (with an all-consuming interest), roll it around her finger and thumb for quite a considerable time then stick it under her till. Oblivious to the fact she was in public. I will not be going to till number 5 ever . Revolting.

Ok, I was going to gloss over the delights of cleaning my horses willy. It is utterly rank, when you have to dig about finding The Bean. Espesh when you pick the bits off (with gloves I hasten to add!) and drop them on the floor and then the yard dog eats them.

It's also delightful when you are grooming their back legs, they lift their tail and pffftt. In your face. BigHorse is an expert at this.

[TheOriginalLadyFT]

jewelledsky that is why one should nevair go to tesco, such horrid people

[OxfordBags]

I don't want to know what The Bean s, and yet I feel compelled to demand that you tell me, OP

I want a t-shirt made up with "Have you ever cleaned out a male guinea pigs's anal sack?" on the front

I also, for some reason, had a vision of a Jehovah's Witness asking that as his opener on people's doorsteps...

[Clarabell78]

How do wild horses clean their willies without humans to do it for them??

[KeepingCalmAndPostingNicely]

Oh God. I just read that about the cheesy dong as I ate my last delicate morsel of Sainbury's Taste the Difference cheddar. I feel a bit ackkkk now.

[eatyouwithaspoon]

I had no idea people cleaned their horses knobs everyday is a school day!

[Beamur]

Yup, animals are disgusting.
My dog likes to roll in dead things and when she goes for her next round of jabs I will be asking the vet to check and see if her anal glands needs emptying.
The gerbils are small hairy thugs who will eat each other when one of them pops their clogs - they are fine while alive but seem to become a snack on dying...
The fish is the least revolting but has to swim around in his/her own poo - I do change the water and have a filter, but still....

Waitrose from now on

[SucksToBeMe]

I can understand why my Irish grandma thinks we're awful having pets in the house. All family pers lived outside in her day. But I do think horses are slightly less gross. Mine poo in their water buckets, pfft in my face when I'm plaiting/putting on tail bandages, and snort snot in my face. But what wins me over us the fact there poo is just chopped up vegetarian bulk,many a time I've scooped poo up with my bare hands. But dog poo makes me gag EVERY time.

[TheOriginalLadyFT]

Could never understand my nephew having a gerbil in a cage in his bedroom. It stank like a public bog, did feck all and bit you at the slightest provocation

[SanityClause]

Cats aren't clean, they're just covered in cat spit!

[MrsMushroom]

My Siamese cat is ALWAYS getting poo stuck half out of his bottom. He just walks up to me and presents it! He stands there with his arse to my face looking all when I look grossed out.

[jewelledsky]

Have seen friend's dog drag its arse across her carpet and then sniff-at length-the enormous skidmark it left in her cream pile. Truly rank.

[Stinkyminkymoo]

Oh The Bean... It's a firm lump of smegma that has collected and hardened inside the horse's penis. It can become so large that the horse can no longer urinate...which may also cause other problems due to blockage.

I think wild horses don't have a willy cleaning because they move more.

I had a friend at school who had a male lop rabbit who used to spunk through his cage loads, walking past was hazardous to say the least. Not nice when you'd get it in your hair aged 12!

[Naysa]

Apparently stallions are less prone to beans because they use their dongs so they aren't as cheesey. Not sure how true that is but it makes sense in my head

[TheOriginalLadyFT]

Well mrsmushroom that's pedigree cats for you. Rude, arrogant little buggers ha ha

[confusteling]

I did once walk on my cat, pre-neutering, with his legs wide apart, huge erection, licking away.. Backed out of the kitchen and left him to it!! Since being neutered he doesn't do that anymore, but every time the eldest cat , Jim, comes in from the garden, he makes a beeline for his bum and sniffs/licks it for as long as he can, even following him through the house with his nose up the poor Jim's arse..

The other one quite often lies in bed with me. He breathes with his mouth open sometimes, blowing hot fishy air on to me. He quite often lets off farts that smell strongly of rotten eggs. And he's squirted "poo juice" everywhere, before then licking it up.

They also sniff their own shit after depositing...

[CheckpointCharlie]

Oh BLEURRRGGGHHHHHH!!! The Bean

OP surely The Bean is far worse than a poo stuck in a cats bum?

[pjmama]

It's just jealousy. If humans could lick their own bits, we'd probably never get anything done.

[andubelievedthat]

you got it pjmama> humans in the "throes of passion" put their tongues/lips mouths were animals wouldn"t figure out how to ? do animals (apart from humans )do anal? just wondering?

[ThatVikRinA22]

we have and have had them all.....dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats and hamsters.

i also yearn for my own horse, i help at the stables a couple of days a week where im learning to ride.

i mucked out a stable of a horse that also shits in its water bucket.....i love horses but thats not so pleasant! it sort of dissolves.....why why why would an animal do this!!

the worst thing was when my cat was sick down the back of the radiator. every time the heating came on i could smell cat vom....had to pour jugs of water down the back of it to dislodge it...

she also drinks out of my glass of water every morning.

the dog seems less hassle. good job i love em all. (and i let my riding school pony kiss me on the lips....i dont tell DH!)
