But I live in the country and her paws never touch concrete - or other man contaminated surfaces. The yard and woods do have some germs, but for the most part, the rains and sun washes them away or disinfects them.
Besides, I have a cat that would never, but never, set paw on that. She would hop over or never go out...or once out, never come in. (and I have the world's most skittish cat - she had a really hard life before coming here and so, even though she's all over my lap and keyboard and snuggles up close as she can at night...there's no way I could get a hold on her near the door, knowing what I intended to do.
