I am renting a room from a couple who have two cats. I am not keen on cats but the problem is not with them but the roommates who leave the cat food plates sit in the sink. That really grosses me out. They are sloppy housekeepers, but that is disgusting.
Fortunately I signed a six month lease. Please don't suggest that I express my concerns. I tried that on a lesser issue and they blew up, the husband especially. I fear diabetes fuels his anger.
I just remove plates from sink and leave them for the roommates to clean. I am sure I can bide my time until the lease is up. I am posting this issue to see what the consensus is about leaving dirty animal plates in the sink.
I, personally, hate any dishes in the sink; period. But cat dishes wouldn't be anymore annoying to me than other dishes. What grosses me out about cats is that they are constantly walking on the countertops and sink. Now, that is gross!
ive been a guest at a house, where the homeowners set the plates on the floor and the hungry dogs would lap them clean,,,, and then they tell me they haven't had hot water for a while,,,,and im eating off plates that have been lapped clean by dogs,,,im sure they washed them,,,but not with hot water
Where would you rather they put the dirty cat plates? Leave them on the floor? Set them on the counter?
Just put a squirt of dish soap on them, run some water while you are rinsing your dish, and call it good until they wash them. No biggie.
I just pop open a can of food and set the can out for my girls. They nicely share, often leaving a bit at the bottom for the dog to lick out later. Would that work better for you?
I'm a cat person. Cats are awesome. Cat dishes are gross. You have a valid gripe.
I don't use cat dishes. I just pop the can of food open, set it down for the girls, and toss it when it's empty. One can in the morning and one at night.
