What we all knew...
A friend sent me this link this morning, so thought I'd put it out there for those who have any concerns (although I suspect I am preaching to the converted!).

My favourite part of the article, which discusses the potential risks associated with sharing your bed with your pet, is this:
"Keeping these concerns in context maintains the practical message this paper delivers: that risks exist but are easily preventable. “I can’t think of any close relationship that doesn’t involve some risk of catching something,” Fudin said. “Do you stay away from human companions because you might catch the flu?”"
Indeed.
