Apparently there were cases in the past where good manners caused
someone to burst a bladder.
Most people don't do this on purpose, so in that case, it's not rude.
And I doubt she did it on purpose the first time either.

WIWAL we had a dog. To the best of my memory it never smelled unpleasantly.

My experience is that you can always control a fart long enough to let
it go away from others.

by surprise though it's usually controlable.
Drifting a bit...When going to someone's dwelling, if the person owns
dogs there is seldom an unpleasant odor. If the person owns cats,
there is often an unpleasant odor. Why is cat urine so different?

I am not sure where farting would be considered polite, but one
normally doesn't have a choice to defer a fart; sometimes one has a
bit warning, and can clamp down enough to lower the windspeed, but rescheduling a fart isn't a practical thing AFAIK.
Apparently there were cases in the past where good manners caused
someone to burst a bladder. I don't know what would happen if one successfully held on to a fart, but it probably wouldn't be good.

It's not a question of the urine but of the training.
Cats are more difficult
to train.
My eldest daughter is on her second cat, and there's no trace of
cat smell in the house.

One cat at a time?-a That's easier than multiple cats.

This story will make sense only to those who understand French.
A man was at a formal dinner when he felt the pressure at his rear exit,
so he went to another (empty) room and let it rip. As he was flapping
the tails of his coat to get rid of the small, a waiter came in and saw
him apparently doing a dance.
"Ah, monsieur, quelle p|-tulance!" said the waiter.
The man replied "Monsieur! Il ne faut pas me tutoyer."
I assume it's the same ancestry that makes them hate rain.

Once in school I watched a tractor with a snow fan removing the
sludge snow from the school yard. The watery sludge was sent in a
high arc to the side. A little cat ran precisely where the sludge
fell down following the advance of the tractor while dancing and
apparently enjoying the bath.

The second cat is quite new, and that's probably the reason that I
forgot to mention my youngest daughter who has had two cats for many
years (the same two). There's no unpleasant smell in her apartment either.
I have to admit, though, that my smell sense is not what it used to be,
but I think that cat smell is able to overcome that obstacle.

The one thing I would like to know is why Box hedges smell like tomcat
pee?
