Looks all sweet and cuddly, but then again, you didn't see him eating from your cats litter box 5 minutes ago. |
USA Today - Sleeping alongside your pets can make you sick. It's rare, but it happens. That's why good hygiene means keeping Fluffy and Spot next to the bed, not on it, two experts in animal-human disease transmission say in a forthcoming paper. More than 60% of American households have a pet, and depending on the survey, 14% to 62% let their dogs and cats sleep with them.
Umm, thanks for that. I've seen my dog eat poo in my yard, catch and maul a rabbit, lick every square inch of his body,and I'm fairly certain he can't distinguish between yellow snow and white snow when he's rolling around during play time. I'm pretty sure a study wasn't needed to figure out that sleeping with your pets may lead to health problems. They're disgusting. What other obvious health related items have you researched? Vitamins are good? Eating sugary junk food bad? Should I have gotten you to scientifically research my hand washing blog from yesterday?
I'm sure a government grant was used to fund this study, just another waste of money.
