Rat to human disease??

Question

I was eating Raspberry Soy Yogurt and let my rats l**k the spoon before I realized I wasn't completely done. I got a different spoon just in case but...Would anything bad happen if I let them l**k the spoon and then kept eating with it? I know that sounds gross to some people but my ratties are really clean and I figure I kiss them all the time...I probably would have caught something by now. I don't think I can catch anything from them but I thought I'd check. Thanks!

Answer 1

Not that I know of.

Rats and humans don't share any disesases, although it has been known that a rat can catch a cold from a human. Humans, however, don't catch colds from rats.

So go ahead! As long as your rat doesn't have p**p on his face, or any other disgusting thing, then I believe it's fine :)

Answer 4

Rats poo a lot.

Traces of E.Coli can be found in f***s.

Rats nest in the bedding which also contains f***s.

If you wake up the next morning with a bad stomach ache, you might have caught some e.coli.
