It has it's risks, yes. They can pick up bug from outside that they simply cannot fight off on their own. One of the worst is a bug that I can't remember the name, that can come from cat wee.
But saying that, i'm sure that there is still an awful lot of bugs in general on carpets/sofas. Especially if you're a regular public transport user.  |
