Do you have a pet?  Does Fido or Fluffy sleep on the bed with you?  YOU ARE GONNA DIE!  well, not today but they have found some really strange stuff……

Sleeping alongside your pets can make you sick.

There’s plague (yes, bubonic plague, i.e. the Black Death); chagas disease, which can cause life-threatening heart and digestive system disorders; and cat-scratch disease, which can also come from being licked by infected cats.

Though many people love getting licked or planting a kiss on a pet, it may not be such a good idea, the authors say.

The researchers found several cases of various infections transmitted this way.

“The risk is rare, but when it occurs it can be very nasty, and especially in immuno-compromised people and the very young,” says Chomel, who specializes in zoonoses, the study of disease transmission between animals and humans.

To me I have but two words for these “scientists”…..BITE ME!
