Bit tenous but arse dog once ate his own shite then threw up on DH's shoe, which he threw at the wall in temper. It was everywhere and will feature heavily in my divorce petition.

Cat sick in tights, which is arguably worse as it means a change of tights as well as washing feet!

shoelaces · 10/08/2018 17:08

Arse dog Winklike it!

Cat sick in the tights? And then you stuck your leg in to find it? Or stepped on sick wearing tights? Given the choice, I think I'd prefer to have had tights on, but that's cow I wear 80 denier!

I can empathise about the cat sick OP! My late DM had 4 cats at one point,and you could guarantee that at least twice a week there would be a little pile of puke deposited somewhere in the house for unsuspecting bare feet to tread in. The problem was made worse by the fact that the carpet in the living room was a cat puke pale pink colour,so the sick was camouflaged on it! They never seemed to do it where a) it was easily visible or b) where it was easy to clear up,like on the tiled kitchen floor. My DM always wore slippers around the house,so she avoided getting it on her bare feet. But she would be unaware that she'd trodden in it and be blithely walking it all around the house! Envy (not envy).
With regard to the worst thing I have trodden in,or rather on,it must be a slug. Urgh. That was vile.

A slug with bare feet 🤢 I was running out in the dark in the midst of a horrible storm to shut my shed door which was threatening to blow off. Didn’t see sluggy and it exploded between my toes. Was not a pleasant experience.

BlooBagoo · 10/08/2018 17:18

Toss up between a slug that went between my toes and dog shit. I'd walked downstairs in the dark and there was something on the hallway floor, which I assumed was a leather glove which had fallen off a shelf so I kicked it. I had assumed very wrongly. Envy

A dead mouse that the cat had caught and taken back outside, which I couldn't find until I went out to the bins in my bare feet.........

shoelaces · 10/08/2018 17:18

Slugs! Yuck!

Slug

GoneWishing · 10/08/2018 17:20

Eeeeewwww... I stepped on cat sick yesterday, too! (Well, more like slimy cat drool, as I hadn't seen it when cleaning the offending hair ball). I just stood there trying to distance myself from my own foot and cried at DH to get kitchen roll... It was cold, it was slimy, it was gross...

Slug was worse, though. Oh god.

GoneWishing · 10/08/2018 17:23

I once found a big fat slug on my frying pan on the hob though. A clean one, that I would have innocently used to cook with the next day. That was my grossest ever slug experience - even worse than stepping on one.

mikeyssister · 10/08/2018 17:23

Dog Poo, a particularly slimy smelly one. I love DDog, but not that day.

Skyejuly · 10/08/2018 17:27

Dog shit on rug in night. Stepped in it. Threw rug away

Takfujimoto · 10/08/2018 17:27

That is really very grim.

My husband vomits if he sees hears,thinks,getsanyhint someone sick up, once DC1 threw up on him, baby was chucked to me (quite literally) and then he managed to bump into us in his haste to the toilet and was sick in between DC1 and myself, creating a horrifically sloppy vomit waterfall affect.

fdgdfgdfgdfg · 10/08/2018 17:30

Could be worse, I once popped into the back garden in bare feet after not going out there for weeks due to crap weather and stepped in dead cat. And it was definately "in" rather than "on", it'd been there a while.

Sorry but I'm laughing out loud at this and snorting. Perfectly worded. And just what I needed as a cheer up.

KittyLover91 · 10/08/2018 17:45

A slug bare foot!

KittyLover91 · 10/08/2018 17:46

@BlooBagoo 😂😂😂😂

EssentialHummus · 10/08/2018 17:46

A frog, in espadrilles. This morning Envy.

ScreamingValenta · 10/08/2018 17:50

Or stepped on sick wearing tights?

That's it! Thankfully they haven't thought of throwing up into my tights yet, but give them time Grin.

It invariably happens when I've spent too long getting dressed and am in a rush to get to work, and the last thing I need is a foot washing session and having to put new tights on.

DontCallMeBaby · 10/08/2018 18:01

I put my hand in a dead bird once. It wasn’t a bare hand, as I insist on gloves for gardening, but I was on my hands and knees so it was nearer my face than I would have liked.

elephantoverthehill · 10/08/2018 18:04

Shoelaces was the cat sick still warm? Maybe I speak from experience Grin

TooTrueToBeGood · 10/08/2018 18:11

Not in but on, a 6 inch nail sticking through a plank of wood. Went through the sole of my trainers and right through my foot. Had to go to hospital complete with the plank still attached.
