| Cat poop While I was getting ready to take off my shoes, Titus runs down to where the kitty litter is and starts eating the cat poop. I was so disgusted I quickly picked him up and made him open his mouth to get rid of it. I'm afraid of Titus going down there so I have a gate set up where the cats can jump over but Titus won't be able to go down there to eat cat poop again. Does anyone else have this problem and what did you do to make them stop? |

| Joel will "get" any poo from any animal from anywhere he can(except his own, lol) and won't leave it unless I just keep it away from him, it drives me crazy! I was trying to break him from getting roscos poo by puting vinigar on it and even that barely stopped him but I think to most yorkies its like treats to them! |

| Yes pretty much all dogs love to eat cat poop. Something to watch out for is if your dogs go potty in the yard, and neighbor cats poop in your landscaping, the dogs will find it and eat it. Years ago our golden had worms which the vet said was gotten from eating cat poop. She said it didnt come from our cat's poop, because ours didn't have worms. That's when we switched from plain heartworm meds to interceptor, which also kills parasites like worm eggs. We always have our eye on Columbo in the yard, but occasionally I know he eats some because we can smell it on his breath. YUK! This year we have to be extra vigilant on the cat poop watch outside because since he was diagnosed with PLE & IBD, we don't want him accidentally eating anything.
