We've been helping one of our neighbors clean her house and it has been going very well. It's very satisfying cleaning it because it is very messy. It's not so satisfying when Mom tells us to clean up our room and we find it to be perfectly satisfactory already.
"What have you guys been doing? It doesn't look any cleaner!" Mom would say coming in.
"Well, yeah. That's because it was already clean," I would think.
Our neighbors on the other hand keep cats, which like all animals make a disgusting mess of your house and don't really care. Mom's told us to pitch any clothes/bedsheets/shoes that the cats used as a litterbox because there would be no cleaning them. On the other hand, cleaning up after their disgusting mess leaves the house looking sparkly clean and a lot less cluttered. When I left I was satisfied to know that we had left their house cleaner than we had found it. (Of course it helps having a maniacally clean mother.)

All animals do not make a disgusting mess of your house. It really depends on the animal, but more than that on the owner. If the owner house-trains their animal, then the animal won't use clothes or bedsheets, etc., as a litterbox. Although, cats are generally brain-dead and untrainable anyway, so training doesn't work in their case. That's why dogs are so awesome.
ReplyDeleteYeah, cats tend to be very messy.
