Hmm I dont know. I usually keep them away from my food. I let them drink out of my water glass.

I'd eat it. As sneaky as Tailer and Harvey are, if I refused to eat anything they'd licked I'd probably starve to death.

I'd share food with my cats. Mostly because I'd never have a moments peace if I didn't, and because I don't feel it's any grosser then sharing food with your baby.

Eat it, of course!


Davidson loves coming up to us while we're eating, to get a litlte sniff and lick, and he's on his way... Harley has no interest

I'd eat it.

My husband will share his milk (just a couple of licks) with Oliver, but not with me.


Our neighbor, Mousersdad, will share dried anchovies with Tripod. They take turns biting into them.

I'd eat it. (Those frozen tater tots would be pretty much germ-free after cooking anyway - no big deal.)

The only food Lukas tries to eat are muffins & donuts-I usually give him a small bit of his own to leave me alone-I let him drink out of my water glass I keep by the computer & on th bedstand-

Eat it. A little cat spit won't kill me. Although I do draw the line at cat sneezes. One of my kitties loves to sneeze right in my coffee if I'm not careful about keeping her away from it. Have to dump the cup everytime.

i'd eat it...but Wonton rarely licks my food. he's really finicky, and the only human food he likes is beef jerky. if he licked a piece of jerky and then didn't want it, i'd eat it

Yeah, that's what I told my BIL, but he said, nope, he still wouldn't eat them. Anyway, it's not just the tater tots that I've eaten after they've licked it...I'm partially blind in my right eye and so Nathan sneaks up on me a lot and licks whatever I'm eating before I notice he's there (he loves oil and vinegar dressing on sandwiches
). Like some other people have said, if I threw out everything he licked, I'd starve.

I'd chow down.
Tiger and I share cheetos and doritos all the time. Reilly and I have shared cereal... I might as well share it with them because if I turn my head they'll sneek it anyways
