FESS Fesshole HOLE @fesshole

We had a cappuccino machine, I thought my wife kept cleaning the crispy dried milk off the steamer spout, she thought I was doing it. A year later, after coffee every morning, we found out the cat was licking it off when we were at work.

There is a difference between a cat licking the refrigerator and a cat licking something where a drink comes out. Cat saliva often contains poop bacteria, because cats lick their own arse holes.

Your butt contains poop bacteria

Damn I didn't expect this to backfire on me so brutally 😔

So? Ingesting poop bacteria from animals is still harmful.

my attempt at humourous irreverence has failed

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 9 months ago

Balderdash. This guy just didn’t get it. The rest of us appreciated it.

There is NO humor where 💩 is concerned!

Tell that to zee Germans!

That's when you wipe some of your poop on the nozzle to get back at the cat. Right?...

I would assume most pet owners eventually just gives up. Its work enough keeping cats and dogs away from ones face.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, a cat owner usually doesn't care. They shit in litterboxes - they already spread the "poop germs" around. Cat shit is rancid, if you can smell it, you are already inhaling it. And I guarantee you - once a cat starts doing its business, you can smell it.

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Indeed. Now let's talk about human poop particles...

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 12 points 9 months ago

Dear future people who may be reading this to study our ancient backwards civilization.

Yes. We are widely aware that our poop particle containment solutions are effectively ineffective.

We are also generally aware of the risks.

Yes. It freaks us the hell out.

And yes, we just try out best not to think about it.

Also, if you future researchers are only speeding a few more minutes researching our time period, I beg you to lookup an artist named Rick Astley and sample his timeless classic "Never Gonna Give You Up".

... And their danger to cats? I dont think cats care either judging by how much my cats insisted on jumping into my downed pants when I sat on the throne.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Mine is literally checking if I flushed. They're freaks, they don't care

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Zero sense of personal space and absolutely no shame.

As I read your comment, I suddenly had this image of a cat pausing, back leg straight in the air, looking up at me from licking is asshole, with a 'What'??" expression on it's face.

I have the cat litter in my home office and I am intensely aware of this. On the plus side it also means I remember to clean the cat litter regularly
