Close family member has a gorgeous British blue cat (indoors only). The cat has free reign of the house downstairs and is allowed on kitchen surfaces such as the counter and table. Each to their own I guess, but I think this next bit is pushing it. I was invited for coffee today and was sitting chatting at the breakfast bar when all of a sudden I saw something move out of the corner of my eye and then I realized it was the cat snuggled up in the fruit bowl on the counter and he was yawning and adjusting his head. To say I was shocked was an understatement as I could just about see some apples underneath him. Relative could see I was taken aback and said that cat usually snuggles in the bowl when the fruit in about to run out as there's more room in it and that there were only a few apples in it anyway! I said you're not going to eat them surely and she said of course they will as the cat has no germs as he's an indoor cat! I don't care how clean and cute he is but he's still an animal at the end of the day. I hope she at least will wash them! We have pets who are a big part of our family so it's not that I'm not used to cats and dogs etc AIBU?
