A while backed I figured that if I like eating from clean dishes my pets would too. So I got some cheap enamel metal bowls and use clean ones for my dog and cat.

Anybody else do this?

ETA: I’m not weird and I’m happy all your pets get clean dishes. It was weird for me growing up.

    Yeah, man. The cats bowl is cleaned for every meal. I wouldn’t eat off of yesterday’s food remnants so why should she?

      Cats can also eat raw meat without much concern for bacteria. Their digestive tract is much smaller than a humans, and it processes much faster, leaving little time for bacteria to infect their gut. That’s why wild animals survive without cooking their food. Humans and cats are too different to compare when it comes to diet
