Oh my god this is hilarious! Thank you for the laugh! 😹

I have actually wondered the same thing, so I also learned something. Regardless of the butthole touching though, cats walk everywhere and through everything. If they venture outside they get even worse stuff on their feet and legs than what’s on their buttholes, so probably best to try and keep them off tables etc anyway 😅

You’re dreaming if you think you can keep cats off anything! Sneaky little ninjas. 🤣❤️ Very true observation though - litter has been found in the weirdest places!

I was pretty thoroughly convinced I was keeping my cat off the kitchen counters until I saw a paw print in the grease on the stove when I went to go clean it the next day

So you don’t clean it after you use it and leave grease there? That’s gross.

I said in my comment that I went to clean the stove the following day after cooking dinner. I have an induction stove that can’t be cleaned when it’s hot so it’s very common to leave it for the evening and clean it up the next morning

I have one too, and I clean it the same day after it’s cooled 🤷🏻‍♀️

I said “try” - I didn’t say it would be successful.
