I have two large dogs. When I was investigating the possibility of composting their waste, I ran across several sources that said even composted dog waste should only be used for ornamentals, not food plants. This may be out of an abundance of caution, but the idea is that plants drawing up nutrients and water from the soil can become contaminated with viable bacteria as well.
- seunosewa 11y agoThere is no evidence of the existence of cat/human diseases that can infect plants or plant diseases that can infect cats/humans. Plants and animals are enormously different biologically. A pathogen that has evolved to infect one is very unlikely to to be capable of infecting the other. It's just as likely as the existence of a nobel prize winning physicist who is also the heavyweight boxing champion of the world.
