One time my dog threw up and my other dog ate it, threw up and ate it again. He’s not smart.

Lol yeah I even gave you the reference in my post.

[–] clubb@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

So it's not even a modern problem, huh

[–] johnthedoe@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It’s incredible to think they don’t mind given that people say how good dog’s sense of smell (and taste?) is.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 26 points 2 years ago

Maybe we're the ones really missing out.

[–] Pinklink@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It’s probably more complicated than that. They eat cat turds because of high nitrates, which are actually fairly nutritious for dogs

In my house, the other cat ate it. They can be just as stupid

Nature's dumbest, most disgusting and loveable vacuum cleaner.

Back when I had two cats this was never a problem because one cat would always eat the other cat's puke. Now that only my little girl is left, it's usually one of my socks that finds it now.

Random irrelevant fun fact about my cats: my boy cat weighed 18 pounds and my girl cat weighs 6, and I always saw huge poops and tiny poops in their litter box and naturally assumed that my big boy was responsible for the big poop. But after he died I was left with just the huge poops in the box. Quite a surprise.

Big boy got big by keeping the calories in.

Physical trainers hate this one trick!

Dennis is doing "hummingbirds" right now

[–] hoch@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Is he? They must be imperceptible to the human eye

Sometimes it's just dry heaving

[–] Jimmyeatsausage@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The only way to be certain is to walk around barefoot in the dark...if it exists, you'll find it...

[–] Imgonnatrythis 5 points 2 years ago

You need to add that you should not do this if you have kids that use Legos otherwise your comment may be considered a human rights violation.

Don't worry, you'll find it when you step in it

[–] instamat@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And chances are high that you’ll be wearing a sock and it will be in a very dark room when you do

[–] crashoverride@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That's a good thing, can just discard the sock and deal with cleanup later, but if it barefoot, you have to clean yourself up now

[–] uservoid1@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (3 children)

You start your morning playing mine-field, doing the round squinting for suspicious marks, watching your steps, clearing one room at a time. Today it was the hallway

[–] crashoverride@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Or one of your other animals cleaned it up. Had this happen many times with my cat/dog and dog/dog vomit

[–] PsychedSy 3 points 2 years ago

I have to watch my dog like a hawk, but he'll find it for me.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

"Area rug in front of the litter box, CLEAR..."

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

You don't find it. It finds you.

[–] newIdentity 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I sometimes have very vivid auditory hallucinations when I go to sleep so that wouldn't be surprising.

Like I sometimes hear music, which doesn't exist and I can understand the lyrics. It actually is there. Or sometimes I think someone is talking, but nobody is there, even though I could understand the conversation.

[–] evanuggetpi@lemmy.nz 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ah, the hypnagogic state. I find myself staring at complex 3D patterns, when I become aware and focus on them they slowly fade out.

[–] Sabata11792@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

I occasionally get sleep paralysis, don't actually bother me. I get the most boring hallucinations, but cat throwing up one is the worst. Never quite sure if it was real or not.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

hork hork hork hork hork

...check on bed then check under the bed...

[–] Arfman@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah I've found the little house of hairball horror under the guest bed...

[–] beccaboben@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I too join in the under-the-bed club. So hard to clean, why not any of the many hard floors?!

[–] BoxerDevil@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Probably the dog ate it

[–] sneezymrmilo@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

My God this happened to me just the other day. Except when I went to look for it I walked out of my room into the hall and immediately stepped in it 🙃

[–] kaput@jlai.lu 5 points 2 years ago

It was in my shoe, the right one. Masterfully puked into the shoe, not a drop anywhere but in it. Cat puked Bacon fat is a great lubricant...

[–] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

It's never a dream. Trust me. ITS NEVER A DREAM.

[–] limelight79@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (6 children)

We have 3 cats. I definitely feel this one.

My first concern is that they aren't vomiting on the bed, but that does happen (very rarely, fortunately).

I never have to worry about not finding it. My foot has a knack for finding cat barf.

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

You'll find it in a week or two.

[–] Cihta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I know this all too well. Grain-free food seems to really help.

Sometimes Fluffy urps in the corner. Fluffy knows better than that.

Cats are fun I like them
