He does scoop water out of his bowl then drink it off the floor but he does scoop tea out of my cup and drink that from where ever it lands or licks it off his paws. For as long as your furbaby is eating I wouldn't worry, same as kids using fingers or forks.

Knickers We call them britches over here which is the same thing, that's where Samantha always got mats, they must be sensitive because even when they were cut short she didn't like me combing then, if I pulled the hair with the comb she'd take a swat at me, hiss then run off.
She'd usually come back a few minutes later ad I'd tell her Papa was sorry he hurt his Princess, she was a sweet heart and never held a grudge.
