You will not believe what I caught hitching a ride on Rizzo tonight...a SLUG!!!

Bleh! I pick him up, at first thought it may have been poo but couldn't figure out a. how it got on his back

, and b. why it was cold

... so after some investigating I pull said gooey wad off his back with a tissue and find the creepy critter.

I cleaned up the gross slimy stuff it left behind, do you know if it poses any danger to him? Should I give him a full bath? I just used warm water on a washcloth to get it off, and he's not messing with the spot the thing was on him so I think it all came off.

*shudder* I hate gross slimy creatures, and the slugs and snails around here are doing some moving around.
