I posted this same question a couple of months ago, some people said yes others said no. But just to be safe, wash you're hands before and after coming in contact with them.

Yup, what he said!

I doubt they'll catch a cold from you---I don't think the germs would survive in them, since they're internal temp is so different. You'd want to wash your hands before and after handling them even if you weren't sick.
