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 11 months ago

So it's not even a modern problem, huh

[-] johnthedoe@lemmy.ml 20 points 11 months ago

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 27 points 11 months ago

Maybe we're the ones really missing out.

[-] mrchuckles@beehaw.org 9 points 11 months ago

i’ll be the fun fact guy: they have incredible senses of smell but way less taste buds than us hoomans so that correlates into “does it have a STRONK ODOR? ok i eat dat” so it’s almost like flavor isn’t part of the equation with dogs (or at least obviously not the first priority.)

[-] Pinklink@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

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

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!

Is he? They must be imperceptible to the human eye

Sometimes it's just dry heaving

[-] Jimmyeatsausage@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

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

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months 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.

Sometimes it’s just liquid that dries up pretty quickly.

[-] JCreazy@midwest.social 22 points 11 months ago

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

[-] instamat@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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 11 months ago

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

[-] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

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

The dog found it. EDIT: Darn it lol someone beat me to it.

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

You don't find it. It finds you.

[-] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 10 points 11 months ago

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 11 months ago

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 11 months 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 10 points 11 months ago

hork hork hork hork hork

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

[-] Arfman@aussie.zone 5 points 11 months ago

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

[-] beccaboben@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

Probably the dog ate it

[-] sneezymrmilo@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months 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 🙃

[-] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

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

[-] kaput@jlai.lu 5 points 11 months 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...

[-] limelight79@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

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).

[-] nameisnotimportant@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

Do they puke often? Mine does maybe 4 times a week and I've been wondering if I should worry :/

[-] limelight79@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

Four per week seems like it might be a lot for one cat.

Every cat is going to do it now and then - if nothing else, they get fur in their throats and have to cough that up.

But I had a cat that had food allergies and inflammatory bowel disease (that cat has passed away, but now we have another cat that also developed IBD...sigh). That cat did a lot of throwing up. We have three cats now, and I'm cleaning up fewer messes than he generated alone. I miss him a ton, but I don't miss cleaning up the messes.

But, my suggestion is that you note what's in the vomit - are you seeing fur? Undigested food? Digested food? Or just bile? And note the frequency. And then talk to your vet.

They didnt actually throw up this time. It was trauma induced auditory hallucinations.

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

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

[-] ohlaph@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

You'll find it in a week or two.

[-] Cihta@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months 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
