There's sometimes a problem with the other end too, canine "wind" always seems to smell of eggs! When I had dogs I was a bit obsessive about possible smells and always had air-fresheners around, used Febreeze a lot too.

Cats don't usually smell but their litter trays do. You have to clean them out every day, otherwise.......phhhhhhhworrrr!

yeah thats their problem they dont clean their trays .........and they're in the kitchen

She had a thing about cats for years & o.k i tolerated it but when one got very ill & had to be put down who ha to take it to the vets to be put to sleep?Not her.No more pets in our house.Plus the weekly outgoings are less without one,less to clean,less to fork out if your going on holiday.No as far as i'm concerned pets are a no-no in our gaff.Unless i lived abroad,i might adopt a lizard

Pets are wonderfull additions to any family

We have two dogs and 2 rats.

Main smell come from the dogs behind.

Dogs are wonderfull for companionship and would help children maybe take on some responsability, plus you are never alone when you have a dog.

What a burglar alarm to.

Having owned dogs for over 10 years I will now probably own a dog/dogs for the rest of my life.

I have had up to 4 cats at any one time.......two of my own, and two strays,but alas Monty my Maine Coon cat died in February(lovely boy)......and recently one of the timid strays has disappeared. He always used to come to sleep in a cat box in the garage, and would have a good scoff every morning...but haven't seen him now for something like 10 days. I do have a little black cat with white socks. She was a stray who turned up some 8 years ago. Hubby had just had a stroke and was very 'down'........she was a kitten then and made him smile.....and then made him laugh, and would drape herself round his shoulders like a big furry collar.
Once she became a member of the family, my hubby began to get better.
She is called Pashmina...Pasha for short.
We also have a stray white male cat visiting us for food and a comfy sleep on the sofa.......I'm not allowed to give him a name because he isn't 'mine'.
So now only two cats. My house would not feel like home without them.

We have 2 cats, 'Toffee', & 'Harwood'. Love them to bits, & will probably have another couple before the year is out!

Rabbits can make good house pets. We had one, years ago, called Snoopy. We got him when he was tiny and trained him to use a litter box. He used to go to sleep on my shoulder, would sit up and beg for Smarties and cheese sandwiches and used to lie on the rug by the fire with the cat and the dog.

my dog does all mannor of secretions all over the place, poo, pee, slaver, blood, snot, spit, sweat etc, and farts constantly too. he snores loudly, weezes, grunts, has nightmares etc, her gets filthy, constantly licks his balls, ass n all, then trys to kiss you! Yet throughout all this he provides total loyalty, would lay down his life for me, is well behaved, patient, persistant, funny, idiotic, stubburn etc

i hate most all the dog hairs that get just about everywhere, but hey, all this is still worth owning him for
