Mabel ate a worm! EEEWWW! Mabel ate a slimy brown worm! And the worst part is it was on my kitchen floor! How did a live worm get in my kitchen?! What unseen hole did it slither thru? And what else could slime in?! Does anybody know if worms are poisionous? Probably not. I'm calling the vet anyway. Bugs usually don't bother me...but worms gross me out!:eek: |
I would say she brought it in or it got in some other way. I don't think it probably crawled in unless you have a door to the outside in your kitchen. It won't hurt her. It's just extra protein.:D |
I agree it's gross! Just a little added protein for Mabel today I guess. I have not heard of worms being poinsonous. Better check with the vet to be sure. Buddy being on the larger side detests bugs and worms. He actually jumps aside when he sees one in the grass. He's big but he's a wimp. |

Yes gross not harmful, as someone said just some extra protein. Shayna eats them and plays withthem. Now imagine if it was a snail. Now that's gross and I get those in the house thanks to Shayna. Just last week I found on in my couch. Lovely! I keep offering to cook them for her. I hate it, they make her breath stink and sometimes she gets the runs, and wherever she drops them a slime trail developes. So during snail season, you can find me out back with the salt shaker, salting snails to death (of course I can't use conventional snail bait). Sorry to offend any snail lovers. You can hear me saying " Eeeyooo, yuckie, gross, snails, bad girl, snails stay outside" |
With all of this rain that we've had, there have been 100s of worms in our driveway, YUK! Hot Rod has eaten his share of worms when he was pup. Maggie has managed to eat a few in the last few days, YUK! One thing that they've learned is "drop it" and "leave it" but with the 100s of worms...it's hard to get her to pass up every one. did I say YUK! lol I would think that maybe it was either brought in by your little one or on her fur. |
Fish eat worms, we eat fish. Chickens LOVE worms, we eat chickens. We just get our worms another way :D: As you've already found out, they're not bad, even if they DO have a huge gross-out factor. Mabel may have even brought it in herself with a mind towards future play (or snack). Worms like nice, moist earth ... your house has nothing to entice a worm inside of its own accord. So it got brought into the house, one way or another. |

Glad to know that are not poisonous. I don't think they have a skeletal structure so I guess they can squeeze and worm:p their way in anywhere. Thanks for your sweet comment on Bud. |
Bandit loves rolling in worms after it rains and they all come out of the ground... eww!! I'm glad they're not poisonous! |

Twinkie does the same thing! She has tried to sneak a few in after our daily walks. Ooooh! :p |
Lucky seems to consider them a treat I believe......If it's alive when he finds it he will play around with it then eat it and if it's dead...welllll....he rill roll around in it like it's sugar or something!! It's soooo gross! |
No mommy kisses for Mabel today! Yuck! Glad your worm was non-toxic:exclaim: |
