Pee and poo are very unsanitary, I don't know how some furries have fetish for it :|

Urine is usually considered sterile to yourself unless you have a UTI. The kidneys are very good at filtering things and only the smallest molecules (water, salts, etc.) get through; it's as if your blood was sent through 100 coffee filters at high pressure, bacteria is simply too large to end up in urine this way even if present (yes, it can happen—see septic infection). Protein molecules are large in comparison, and having a lot of protein in your urine is a very reliable indicator that your kidney filters are damaged. Bacteria/fungus/etc. that causes UTIs are almost always going to come from upstream (i.e., travel up the urethra).

Poop doesn't have this type of filter. In a technical sense, the contents inside the GI tract from mouth to anus are considered outside of the body as it's all one long tube. The bacteria in there are generally safe (and indeed beneficial) as long as it stays in that area (e.g., doesn't end up in the blood, muscle, etc.). There are a lot of exceptions to this, part of which is the bacteria in there is fairly unique to you and disrupting it with unfamiliar bacteria can cause some problems. Your own poop is likely safer to you than the poop of someone you live with, which is likely safer than someone you've never met before. The other exceptions is if you have disruptive bacteria in there (e.g., C.diff, E.coli 0157:H7, Salmonella, etc.).

But for all practical purposes, treating poop as generally "toxic" when it is not in your own colon is generally a good way to handle it.

Also, they have found that people who have recurrent C.diff or have taken enough broad spectrum antibiotics to destroy the natural bacteria that reside there seriously benefit from fecal transplants from healthy donors (yes, this means exactly what you think it means).

1. kinda close... but kidney Does not remove bacteria from body... at all.

Provided they were working, if bacteria was present in the blood that enters the kidneys, the kidneys would actually prevent it from leaving the body. :V

Urine is not particularly unsanitary, because your body doesn't use urine to extract bacteria that much, it's more about expelling excess liquids and vitamins, it's also slightly acidic. Your poop is really toxic on the other hand, it's a whole different story.

Correct. pH is usually ~6-7 if I remember right. It can be higher with kidney damage and lower with DKA, but "slightly acidic" is where it normally sits. It's more acidic in the morning than later in the day when it is less concentrated.

This probably is 100% one of those creepy posts that are against commenting guidelines, but I still have my fingers crossed for legalization of bestiality.

(expecting to get a completely unironic neutral warning for this on furry porn-site e621)
