My cat's litter box is in the bathroom so she has to walk a good ways to get to the kitchen. I wipe down the counter with a bleach solution before cooking and I don't prepare food directly on the counter anyway.
I dont think there is anything wrong with it. First off I DONT put food on the counter i will set it on something like a plate or a cookie pan of somesort. I dont have any cats in the house but a counter is still dirty unless it was just cleaned. Rule of thumb for me is to clean anything before I put food on it. It was said that dogs lick there buts sad thing is there mouth is still cleaner then ours if I remember right. They have something in there saliva that kinda kills bacteria dont quote me on this though.
