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?

Years ago 3 of us were out on 3 mares (late summer/autumn time). There was a loose, escaped horse in a barley field , an amazing little dapple grey (like a Thelwell pony all mane and tail and hormones)

The mares just stood there, puddling , alternating between "Leg it girls, he's after us"
and "Oooh talent "
to "Cheeky bugger will need a step ladder"

Luckily for me, my mare decided to pick up her skirts, turn 180 degrees and run for home
I didn't fancy being the middle of a horse sandwich.

DS (age 4) thinks he would like to be a giraffe vet one day, except he is kind of scared and disgusted by all animals, especially their poo and drool.

He is right. I had no idea. God, imagine what giraffe get up to if even little fuzzy guinea pigs are this gross.

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

A nugget of stuck guinea-pig pooh (because it's only mashed up vegetable after all) pales into insignificance compared to dogs anal glands and the emptying of.

I've never been near a dogs anal gland thank you very much.
But my little fuzzy guinea-pig can't help it if his tiny rodent bottom gets too tired and flabby to push (awwww)

We have a rabbit because I thought they were reasonably clean however I've discovered (and it turns out everyone I know already knew) they eat their own poo!

crying laughing at your animal stories.

My kitten gets in the litter tray then sticks its arse over the side, shits on the floor then spends 5 minutes digging through the litter trying to cover a poo thats not even in the tray.

I thought that was bad, but it just doesnt even compare to horses cheesy dongs...

I've just woken dh up, I'm laughing so much at this thread......brilliant.

Visions of madcap 's dog sitting with a pile of shite on it's head will see me through work tomorrow

Has your horse ever had to have an enema? I can assure you, That's disgusting.

And embarrassing when a small child walks by going "DADDY!!! Why is that horsey weeing out of his bum?" As you stand therre wanting to ground to swallow you, trying not to get splattered by shit.

[DizzyZebra]

Oh and my horse mounted my mum. She felt that was disgusting, And was not impressed when he presented her with his knob every time she went near him after that. The joys of adolescent colts.

[M0naLisa]

Yes animals are disgusting creatures.

Mum has a dog and I dread going because he always licks me eurghhh

[monsterchild]

The pooch is not allowed to lick my face. I refuse to be a butt-licker-by-proxy.

[50BalesOfHay]

Also, just about every horse I know sees having its back feet lifted as the equine equivalent of 'pull my finger'

[Twattybollocks]

50bales, too right, mine likes to wait until I'm doing a tail bandage and then lets rip for about 30 seconds right in my face. He also shit on the farriers shoulder last summer

OP
Humans are animals too, and we are certainly disgusting. Just look at the way we treat each other, and other animals.

Let the lighthearted thread stay lighthearted, that's what I say!

[LangenFlugelHappleHoff]

Keep em coming!

Not my pooch but mothers used to love eating out of bait tins when on a canal walk. Cheeky bugger once jumped into a lorry cab and stole a blokes sandwich. Poor mortified mother had to pop home mid walk and make him a new one.

I once had a dog give me a golden shower while he was led on the back of the sofa....

[catladycourtney1]

meddie haha, my cat does that too, or sometimes she manages to shit actually on the edge of the tray, so if it's a bit loose it goes down both sides and underneath. She also refuses to clean her arse, which is good in a way because she likes to share my food, but it means I have to chase her around with a baby wipe after she craps.

[Stinkyminkymoo]

Sally, I know people are disgusting, but this is supposed to be lighthearted and a bit silly!

I love my animals to bits, just hoping that mine aren't the only disgusting ones!

Took parents dog out to the high street with the pram and she had to do a massive shit right in the middle if the pavement. Awkward. Couldn't have possibly done it in the gutter because then no one would be staring at me. Thank god for nappy bags!

I had absolutely no idea about the geldings or the mares cocking their tails.

SMEG on horse dicks. Jesus christ. They don't mention that in the Pullein-Thompson novels do they?

[acceptableinthe80s]

This thread should go in classics, hilarious.
I had the misfortune of working with animals for many years and cleaned up shit/vomit you name it day in day out.
One that sticks in my mind was a white English Bull terrier puppy that had just had braces fitted eating it's own shit right before the owners turned up. I remember it because I vomited whilst picking shit out it's teeth.

A word of warning re emptying dog anal sacs. If you don't cover the 'operative area' properly with wadding or whatever the liquid can squirt straight into your eye - lurrvvly - gets all gunged into your eye lashes. Plays havoc with your contact lenses also - the voice of bitter experience!!

"Sharing the house with animals" would be my contribution to those occasional threads you get on here with titles like "Stuff people seem to love which you just don't get." My children make enough mess. I never, ever, ever want animals in this house. Luckily, DW feels the same. (Neither of us had pets when growing up - that probably makes a difference.)

[Naysa]

This may out me to people who were there, but it so has to go into this thread.

I used to do work experience in a boarding kennels - which is basically where you leave your dog when you go to work or on holiday-- and one week we had two Pointers in "Kennel 2". These two weren't handling the kennel situation very well and were both having liquid poo, and if we weren't fast enough getting them out and hosing the kennel down, they would lick it up.

That lunch time we were all in the staff room and someone was eating Chilli con carne. Everyone who watched him eat it felt sick and he had no idea why until someone pointed out, it looked like "kennel 2"

Posted too soon!

One of my earliest memories is of the family cat shuffling across the kitchen floor on his bum as he had worms.

YADNBU.
