That's not exactly how OCD works.
We have intrusive thoughts based around themes that cause us distress and anxiety. To prevent something bad from happening or to ease anxiety we engage in compulsions.
Not all of us have obsessions about germs.
I have OCD, and I'd never kick a partner or pet out. That said my obsessions are centered around germs and disease.
