30 Tales Of Cats Being Absolute Hooligans, As Shared By Netizens
Article created by: Denis Krotovas
Cats are notoriously known as evil masterminds because of the mischief they get up to while also knowing how to tug on their human’s heartstrings. That’s why every feline owner knows they’re in for trouble when they get a pet kitty, but they still can’t resist the charms of these wonderful creatures.
Some cat lovers who truly trust their feline buddy feel that even if they do destructive things, they’ll try to show how sorry they are. This idea is debatable among pet owners, and the stories in this list show exactly why.

I have a stuffed squirrel that I've had since I was 3 years old. My favorite aunt gave it to me, and she died when I was 10, so even though it has no real value, it has sentimental value to me. My cat stole it. She has little hiding spots all over the house and we don't even know where they all are. I checked all of them I know and couldn't find it and cried because this little stuffed animal means the world to me. She saw me crying tried to cuddle to make me feel better (which didn't work) and a little while later, she returned the squirrel, my missing hair brush (that I gave up on finding, and which she apparently drags along by the bristles), a tube of neosporine that disappeared off my bathroom sink, and my missing sock that I gave up trying to find 6 months ago. Who knows what else she has stashed away 😂.

Maybe not the type of destruction you'd think about when it comes to cats but I think it fits here...
My cat texted "😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘" from my husband's phone to a potential high dollar customer. My husband apologized and tried to explain that it was the cat but we never heard from the guy again. It is/was of course hilarious but we do fully believe we lost the customer solely because he was creeped out. It would've been a $500k+ job😬
Our cat looked very proud, we laughed so hard we had tears in our eyes, we still laugh years later. What else can you do🤷.

My boy got the zoomies and I happened to be in his path. He used my face as a jump pad with his claws out trying to get to a shelf above my head and gave me a gash across my nose. Alot of blood. Would not stop making biscuits on me afterward.

She sat on my laptop - it woke up, started beeping because of the password being wrong.
Her response was to bite the corner of the screen (cracking the lcd) and start peeling keys off.
$1200 damage.

Cost my ex his dignity. Got out and ran down the street, forcing my ex to search for him. The cats name was Hemorrhoid and my ex was a big, tall bearded man.

Many years ago someone put yarn on a wall shelf above a TV. Based on what I saw when I came into the room in the aftermath two of the cats tried to get to the yarn, the shelf could not hold their weight, and it crashed down into the TV, putting a hole in it. It was an old CRT TV I had put off replacing until the cats left me no choice.
The cats were unharmed and one of them is still with us and about to turn 19 years old.

Puck was about 1 at the time, he knocked over one of my photography light tripods and all four LARGE bulbs shattered. I shouted at him, mostly out of fear he'd walk on the broken glass.
Little guy meeped and ran away, but immediately returned to stand outside the door of the room, looking hang dog and guilty. Big eyes looking at me with a furrowed brow, tucking into himself.
I cuddled him and told him it was OK, but FFS don't do that, and cleaned up the area.
He was so careful around my photo equipment after that, really dainty and kept his distance.
He's such an intuitive sweet guy. Unless it's past feeding time. Then all bets are off.

My Hollie broke 3 flat screen tellies
She almost caused a fire by pulling a tablecloth that had a cake with candles
And every birthday for the blessed 5 years we had her, my kid didn't have a cake that wasn't molested.
But we couldn't be angry and now she's gone we laugh about her
She was a wickedly bad cat, full of chaos and mayhem A menace.

Had a very sweet young Siamese boy named Boomer; he was chasing a fly in the kitchen and somehow managed to bring down an open shelf with a lot of antique porcelain and ceramics on it. Everything got destroyed. The other two cats came running to see what had happened; he knew what he had done and hid. But I couldn't be mad at him, he was just too cute.

Our cat climbed on our hanging light fixture and swung on it like Tarzan until it got disconnected from the ceiling and was only hanging by wires. We didn't actually witness this, but we heard a loud sound and saw one very terrified looking cat and insulation everywhere lol we live in an apartment, so maintenance came to fix it pretty quick and we asked them to hang the light up higher where he can't reach. No issues since then.

I took Treacle to the vet, where she behaved APPALLINGLY. She's my rescue who gets stressed very easily and going to the vets is not fun. We've now got pills to give her before we go, to calm her down a bit.
This time though, she really scratched up my arm, making me bleed and burst out in bruises where she punctured the skin. I had to get antibiotics. As soon as we got home Treacle purred and purred and rubbed up against me, as if she was saying "sorry mum". I couldn't be mad at her, but boy did it hurt!

She was under the influence when she was purring. Whatever you gave her didn't kick-in soon enough.

My cat pee'd on my homework. My mother wrote me a letter but the teacher looked appalled. Sorry, I had an elderly cat?
She didn't care 😄.

It’s not monetarily destructive, but my cat has figured out that if she head bonks/rubs the upper corners of my touchscreen Chromebook exaaaaactly right from behind, random tabs will close and my data will disappear. Jumping on the keyboard also sometimes makes strange and terrible things happen, but she prefers the sneak attack from behind the screen. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been almost done entering grades just to have them all disappear.

I had my sons cat while he was deployed. Young cat, very active and curious - chewed multiple charging cords, so we slowly replaced all of them to the kind wrapped in fabric. He got in the garage and knocked over a bottle of fuel stabilizer, thankfully not on himself. He missed a jump to a windowsill, fell into the kitchen garbage can, which then shut, trapping him inside. While exploring a shelf, he knocked over a coffee can filled with screws right into the baseboard heater. I wanted to keep him, but he really loves my son, who got him as a tiny kitten.

In the middle of the night they knocked the TV off the dresser but not all the way... the cord got stuck halfway out of the outlet... and they knocked the change jar over... one penny landed perfectly on the plug that was half in the outlet. The whole house lost power, thankfully my dad's an electrician he came over the next morning.. none of them tried to apologize also thankfully none were hurt either.

My husbands cat has chewed through a many cords, his favorite has been his brand new PS VR headset.

My void reached up and began playing with the stove knobs. Turned the burner on and set a box of soup mix on fire at midnight. Thank the gods I was awake and heard the gas still clicking over (the flame was HUGE when I got down there) and bolted downstairs to the kitchen before the house went up in flames.
They now sleep locked in my bedroom with me and I make sure to never have knobs attached. They get out in a drawer when not in use.

The most destructive thing any cat ever done in my life was chew the lamp cord. Over and over, I said “NO” and even covered the cords.
One day when I was out of the house, my Baby Boy chewed the cord again.
He didn’t live long enough to be apologetic. I miss him and cry for him almost every day, 20+ years later. I’ve never cared one bit about anything they broke.

My cat knocked down all the contents of our kitchen top that were in his reach and caused chaos in the kitchen. In the same sitting he also ripped open a packet of his cat food and it spilt everywhere. He will do it again!
#23
My cats didn’t care. One has a major attitude and the other one is dumb as a rock (we love her though). They destroyed my couch.
#24
After I had my son, my Filthy Queen decided that she needed to "help" me during pumping time. She ate through 4 sets of breast pump tubing in 3 days. By the time I was done, I had one functional set left and she was to be in a separate room from me as to leave the dang hoses alone.
#26
Not very destructive, but one of the ONLY things he's ever broken is my favorite hand made ceramic mug that he knocked off of the counter. It's been five years and I still can't forgive him..
#27
One cat ruined my record collection. Another chomped the corner of a monitor so hard she broke it.
#28
Mine left a huge scar on my face. It was partly my fault as well . I should have been careful.
#29
My one cats pees on anything soft that is on the floor - or my bed. Or a shelf. Clean clothes and blanket are his favorite thing to pee on. I wish I knew why he does this. He shows no signs of being sick and I’ve changed the type of litter plus the boxes.

Given the number of examples of them pushing things onto the floor, consider the flat earth theory.
