I wouldn't have invited them inside if I knew about that fun fact.

1. Cats do too.
When my cat was a half-starved kitten, he'd eat and eat and eat.

Then, if we moved him even slightly, he'd fart. It was not a pleasant smell.

But then, I didn't know cats sneezed until mine did it.

2. Oh, they certainly do.

I once knew a Siberian husky who could clear a room in no time. And a few cats of my acquaintance have been known to produce prodigious gas, too -- they can cause the wallpaper to peel and gin to curdle.

4. They don't even try to hide it, do they?


That was a pretty gassy day in the old bedroom. You would think they would go to a remote area to release like us humans.

6. That's about how my bed looks...
one dog, four cats -- all sort of curled up together. Sometimes they even make room for me!

7. Looks like the dog at the top of the photo is enjoying the phenomenon
Edited on Fri Feb-03-06 09:00 PM by ocelot
since his nose is in the optimum location relative to the adjacent cat -- who is also well-situated to enjoy whatever the other dog produces.

<pbbbbbt> "Hey, who cut the cheese?"

His name is Bratwurst, but OMG can he fart!

5. It's why they are always to blame.
(Brrp) "The dog did it."

8. I remember the All Creatures Great and Small episode
where this lady had a bulldog(?) that could clear a room in 2 seconds flat.
I think she finally gave the dog to a man in the village that couldn't smell.
One of the funniest episodes. :D

21. My Boston gets horrible gas, too.
She's totally unaware she's passing "silent killers," and they take me by surprise, too. The worst is when we're in bed and she sleeps with her butt up by my head. I've actually had to move her while she was sleeping because her farts were making my eyes water.

The smell could peel the paint off the walls . . . .

11. Out 7 month old...
Whippet has horrible farts. When he lets one go everyone in the family leaves the room, except the cat.

13. Cat must be a psycho masochistic cat or likes the smell
No tweeners here. Dog farts ugh, maybe the cat will drop one on the dog when he's sleeping?

12. I had a cat
who would put her tail in your hand so you could play the kitty version of "pull my finger." No joke!

This isn't the first dog fart thread.

15. Try 2 Bouviers after a meal of liver.
We still have the gas masks.

But, take heart, gas CAN be lessened and even prevented. A little cottage cheese, full culture yogurt or buttermilk 2 or 3 times a week with their food cleans up the air beautifully.

17. A friend of mine used to have a black lab that would intentionally
go stand in front of the fan in the living room before he did it.

Then he'd run behind the fan and lay down and grin.

18. My sister's lab will "poot", look surprised, and then run away as if
he was trying to get as far away as possible so that nobody will blame him. It's kind of cute Labs are so funny!

19. Yup. They're great dogs.
About as goofy as a dog can get, but they're loads of fun.
