34 Times Cats Acted So Audacious That Their Owners Put Up A Sign To Warn Others About Their Ways
Odds are, if you’ve made it here, you’re a big fan of cats, giant floofs, and those of the feline persuasion. Congratulations—and welcome to the club. Here’s your complimentary badge and cat list. Cats can be incredibly adorable and they’re bound to attract the attention of passersby, whether they’re strutting their stuff outside or showing off their shiny coats through the window.
However, this constant attention (however meowgnificent) can be exhausting. So some owners write up fun notes and put up lighthearted warnings for other people to read, so they know what (not) to do with their cats. Our feline-loving team at Bored Panda has collected some of the most engaging cat notes from all over the net, so we invite you to enjoy this list and have a scroll.
Pssst—upvote the photos you liked the most. And if you’ve seen any great notes about pets out in the wild with your own two eyes, tell us all about them in the comments! In the mood for some more fluffy content? Check out Bored Panda’s recent wholesome post about a postman cat right here.
Ingrid Johnson, a certified cat behavior consultant and the founder of Fundamentally Feline, went into detail with Bored Panda about the relationship between cats and strangers, the issues this sometimes causes, how best to circumvent them, and how strangers might react to friendly notes. Read on for our full insightful interview with Johnson.

My mother asked me to run her country garage sale for a while. A sign became necessary due to his misleadingly cuddly appearance.
My neighbor left some notes for the maintenance guy
My cat just snuck out and introduced herself to our upstairs neighbor yesterday by running in her apartment and loudly mewling for help... I'm currently making "I'm sorry my cat is psycho and it will probably happen again" baked treats as an apology
I have to put a chair in front of my fridge every night as my 2 cats know how to open the door!
that's fair warning. if earth was flat, cats would have knocked s**t off it
My local Publix has a cat that hangs out in the parking lot that has been named Moose. The store bought him his very own sign to make drivers aware of him.
This cat was on a fruit market today (the sign says "don't disturb the kitten, she's not here to amuse the customers, she's the boss).
I was surprised to see a cat at the doctor's waiting room. Then I noticed the sign.
"I will never leave." 😂 We once fell for a cat like that. That little ass sat in our courtyard meowing like it was completely lost. It was 2:30 a.m.... He woke another neighbor too and we went to look for him. Cat started to purr like hell and immediately followed me like a dog so I tried to take him in for the night. Turned out my cats didn't like the idea a lot. So I gave the neighbor some cat stuff so she could take care of him until the next morning. She had to get up very early so I told her to let him out when she had to leave for work. I also wrote a couple of notes (at 3 a.m.) asking the other neighbors if the cat belonged to someone leaving my number to call me. When I went to look for him the next morning I got a call from lady in the shop next door who told me she found my cat. I told her it wasn't mine but I would come to pick him up for the vet to check if he was microchipped. Then got a call from my mom who was laughing hysterically. t.b.c.
I need one of these to get my nextdoor neighbor to stop staring at me when I leave my apartment.
I had a cat that liked to attack peoples ankles as they went up and down
The sign says “Attention. Cat’s sleeping. Do not disturb!”
Once long ago I saw my cat on the way to school. About 3 kilometers from home.
It's a bit hard toread but for those who struggled: "George just had his 17th Birthday! He has health issues and is on strong medication, but is doing well for his age. He meows a lot but is not hungry or lost - he just wants to greet people and have fuss (aka, be petted). Please do not feed him anything, if you are worried about him please talk to us (knock or leave a note at no 24) " Congrats to George, hope he's still doing well :)
I like the one sign that said "Please stop dropping your cigarette butts on the ground. the cat crawls out at night to smoke them and we are trying to get him to quit."
Jen, not sure why people are downvoting you. It's common sense, but we always have those that say "but they like going out in the fresh air". Open a window, build a "catio", as you said. I like eating burgers and fries, but I don't do it all the time, because it's not healthy.
