NEW STUDY: Feeding your pet can make you sick

I was first aware of this when I was watching The Early Show yesterday, and I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct forum. In the article they talk about dog food but the same information also applies to cat food.

Well if it hasn't killed me yet in feeding pets and not washing my hands right after, I'm not really sure I totally believe this story!

I know what you mean. I've always kept cat food in the kitchen and fed the various cats I had over the years in the kitchen. I've never had any problems either, but thought I should pass the information along.

I have bowls ON the counter for the cats to eat in peace and the dog to stay away:S I also hand fed kittens when I first got them and a few ferals. Interesting topic tho

If I'm going to feed a food to my cats that isn't safe enough for me to handle with my own hands, I'm not a very good mama am I? If I can't handle it, they're not eating it. Period.

This is nonsense. I feed my cats (the wildcats) an all raw meat diet. I handle the meat without gloves and there had been times when I forgot to wash my hands and had something to eat. I have not been sick once from feeding my cats.
