Even the most graceful cat can and will do something pretty silly and dogs are rarely graceful in the first place. However, every once in a while, an animal you keep in your house can get up to the sort of shenanigans that most people would find hard to believe.

Someone asked “Pet owners, what is the worst thing your pet has done?” and people shared their examples. Be warned, these range from hilarious to downright dark in some cases. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to add your own thoughts and stories in the comments below.

If you know your cat, this should not have come as a surprise. For mine, if it dangles or jangles, they will attack it.

    A curious black dog with tilted head, illustrating a pet's mischievous behavior. We have the world's stupidest dachshund.

    One time he sneezed next to a kitchen cabinet and hit his head on the door. He barked at the cabinet for hitting him.

    Ten year old cat finally discovers his own tail and gets mad at the tail for always chasing him. So he slaps at the tail and finally bites it. That hurts. So, he growls and hisses at himself for biting his own tail. Sadly, this is not a single occurrence.

    Close-up of a gray and white rabbit, fitting with stories of pets' bad behavior. I was peeing with the door open (dude) and my bunny came hopping in the room. I said hello and such. Bunny looked at my pee stream and before i knew it she jumped into the toilet bowl. Such horror as she was sitting in there chest deep in gross toilet pee water and getting splattered with fresh pee still as i didnt have enough time to stop the hose without hitting her stupid dumb face with my stupid dumb wiener pee.

    White cat with heterochromia gazing out a window, reflecting the theme of unusual pet behavior stories. My cat would frequently come home with a dead mouse in his mouth. We couldn't figure out where he was getting all these mice til the neighbour came by and told us Mr Chips (the cat) was climbing into the neighbours Python glass enclosure and taking the snakes food (I.e. The mice).

    If the python is small enough that it's food is mice, it's small enough that the cat is much more likely to kill & eat the python.

    A curious dog sitting on a patterned rug, gazing up near a washing machine. Not worst, but definitely stupidest. My one dog follows me everywhere like Mary's little lamb. One evening I gave the dogs baths and left their jingly collars off while they dried, which put them in stealth mode. Went to set the towels in the laundry room and then shut the door to the room on the way out. Fast forward an hour later, I see one dog walking around and realize that I haven't seen the other one in a while. Search all over the house, last place I look is of course laundry room. My stupid dog was just sitting there. Never occurred to him to bark or anything, he just had this look on his face that said "this is my life now. I live in the laundry room.".

    I have one like that. Sometimes when I bring them in from the yard she manages to get left in the mudroom and she just waits quietly until we realize she's missing and go looking for her. She barks at almost every noise from the street, so its not as if she doesn't know how to tell us she thinks there's something we should know.

    Dog's paws on sand with a dirty tennis ball, illustrating disturbing pet behavior. My dog bit through some leashes when he was a puppy. One day he got loose on a walk, stole the baseball that was in play at a high school game, and ran victory laps around the diamond with the ball in his mouth until someone caught him.

    White cockatoo with a yellow crest perched indoors, illustrating pet behavior. Had a sulfur crested cockatoo rescue in the house for a few months. Awesome bird, MASSIVE and so f*****g loud.

    Made a shepherds pie, took forever to make and was my pride and joy I was going to live off for the week (it was massive). Left it in the kitchen to cool until I heard excited squawking.

    The cockatoo flew into it and was treating it like a bird bath, dunking his head and flapping his wings in the gravy. Then s**t in it.

    The pie was a total loss.

    Cat chewing on plant leaves, playfully showing the worst thing pets do indoors. We had this plant that had fake, long, thin leaves on it and my stupid cat would not stop eating the leaves, which resulted in him puking bits back up twice. So I took the plant and put it up in my closet. He was so pissed off about it, followed me the whole way right around my ankles, trying to trip me. he stood at my closet door for twenty minutes meowing, wouldn't let me touch him. So a week later I was running late for work and I left my closet door open without thinking about it. I come home to find the plant dragged into the living room, leaving bits of fake dirt and rocks all over the carpet, cat p**s all over my closet and the stupid plant, and like eight piles of cat vomit with little thin pieces of green leaves in it. Little f****r waited for me to slip up once so he could do it, too.

    Had a cat when I was little who was dumber than a box of rocks. One Christmas she started climbing up the fake Christmas tree and grabbing those tinsel icicles. Then she would eat them. Then she would barf them up. Then she would eat another one. At one point we were gone for a couple hours and there were 8 barf piles, each with an icicle in them. My brother and I had to pick off every single icicle. Cat was a moron.

    People With Impossibly Dumb Pets Share Their Stories, Here Are 45 Of The Most Unhinged Ones We made the mistake of taking our normally very calm Labrador through the automatic car wash. The kind where you put your car in neutral and roll along the tracks. We didn't think anything of it. Doorbells, fireworks, lightning, other dogs; our dog doesn't react to anything. That day we learned that car washes makes her flip her s**t. Once the brushes started hitting the car our dog started running laps inside the car s******g the whole way. It first started as solid turds but quickly devolved into the squirts. Worst 90 seconds ever. It took hours to clean up that crime scene. In hindsight I was an idiot for taking her through it... I wasn't even angry. I felt horrible for literally scaring the s**t out of my dog.

    I took my dog for a walk the other day cause it was unseasonably nice out .. suddenly the wind picked up and was like 90 mph gusts. He went ballistic. 120 pounds of crazy. He might as well have been a kite blowing in the wind the way he lost his s**t. Worst walk ever.

    Close-up of a hawk with piercing yellow eyes, representing the wild side of pets. My cat once caught a falcon, but didn't k**l him. He dragged the bird into the house and set him free. Great, thanks Carlos for this. I always wanted a nearly unharmed predatory bird in my house to s**t all over my place, while you are just lying there on the couch watching the show how I am trying to get the bird out of the house. Next time, just k**l the stuff you hunt, okay!?

    Once watched the neighbors cat s-l-o-w-l-y stalk into our field from their house. Took it like 10 minutes. Once it got within 10 yards of the turkey, the look of confusion and terror on that cat's face was classic "Holy S^^^! that thing is HUGE" s-l-o-w-l-y stalked back home

    I used to know a cat that regularly took down fully-grown buck rabbits. And he wasn't even an especially large cat; he was just your average everyday tabby. My nana took care of him for a year, and decades later her gardener would still occasionally comment about her 'fish head fertilizer' after digging up another bunny skull.

    Many falcons are quite small, actually. The Peregrine falcon can be as small as only being about a foot long and weighing at 12-35 ounces, which is generally around the size of an American crow. The kestrel is even smaller at about 8 inches long and weighing 3-6 ounces (about the size and weight of a blue jay.) Even the largest falcon, the gyrfalcon, only clocks in at weighing around 2-3lbs (on average.) So your average 10-lb housecat could, in theory, catch a smaller falcon. The real question is how the cat caught it without getting beaked or clawed in the process XD Maybe the falcon had just stooped on prey and was still on the ground.

    My cat used to catch a mouse then bring it in to my room and let it go. She'd do that multiple times during the night. Then in the morning I'd find the poor little carcass laid out right outside the bedroom door.

    Labrador retriever looking pensive in a garden, symbolizing the unpredictable nature of pets. The next door neighbour's kid was terrified of dogs. We had a big labrador, and whenever he came near, the kid would cross his arms and freeze. The dog just p*ssed on his leg as he stood there frozen.

    My ex had a negative childhood experience with a large dog (which was actually just the dog knocking him over in exuberant play, not attacking him, but it scared my ex who was quite young at the time.) I had a 90-pound German Shepherd when we met. I'm a package deal with my pets and I wasn't going to get rid of or hide Ember OR my cat Wintressia (which he was allergic to.) My ex had to take some time getting used to Ember, and I helped by making it a really safe environment/she was always in my strict control when they interacted. Over time she helped him overcome his phobia/fear. It helped that she was the sweetest girl XD He also eventually developed a tolerance to cat dander too! When I left in October after 23 years, we had two dogs and two cats together. I left my tuxedo boy Preacher with him, because while he is MY cat technically, he truly loves my ex more than he loves me XD

    A startled cat with wide eyes on a bed, possibly caught in mischief, illustrating worst pet moments. My cat wanted pets at some random time in the middle of the night. After waking up both of us, my wife shoved him off the bed. So he jumped back up and proceeded to teabag her. Literally rubbed his little cat sack across her face.

    A snake with its mouth open wide, showcasing fangs in a dark, eerie setting, related to disturbing pet behaviors. I was feeding my snake (live mice) and the mice dodged his attacked. He ended up biting himself and tried to eat himself. I had to pry his mouth open with a butter knife to get himself off himself.

    The main reason that you don't feed live mice to snakes is that, if the snake isn't hungry and is a bit cold, the mouse will start eating the snake. Rats are far worse.

    Orange and white cat looking calm in a softly lit room, illustrating pet behavior. This little s**t has eaten $200+ in phone chargers and ethernet cables in the year I've had him.

    I've tried buying him more toys to offset boredom. I've tried rubbing the cords down with apple bitter, apple vinegar, lemon juice, and even hot sauce (the only result is the funny face he makes while chewing). I have tried spraying him with water or distracting by throwing toys/treats across the room. Nothing!
    For clarification, I am indeed talking about an a*****e cat.

    People With Impossibly Dumb Pets Share Their Stories, Here Are 45 Of The Most Unhinged Ones Birds. They're like flying toddlers. In the past few years I've had:

    Wicker lamps fall apart from being chewed,
    multiple rescues from mugs or glasses,
    poo on my TV,
    pages torn from a book I was trying to read,
    guests being 'scouted' and eventually dive-bombed,
    unsuccessful attempts to perch on people's noses,
    attempts to get food from people's mouths mid-chew,
    pooing in guests' hair,
    ripping the buttons off the TV remote,
    sitting on my laptop/phone/tablet and attempting to pull it apart,
    Splashing about in whatever liquid is available (think thrashing wings and imagine the mess),
    Competitions to see if they can be louder than TV / Vacuum cleaner / sneezing.

    You might think they are badly behaved, but I can assure you they know what they are doing and even watch for my reaction. If I'm not paying attention they shout at me until I do. They know not to sit on the TV but as soon as my back is turned they are there. I get up to move them and they fly off 'laughing'. The rest of the time, little cuddly angels.



    I love them though.

    They are ridiculously clever and yes, toddlers. You cannot leave them unattended. My umbrella cockatoo ate a painting, a rare book, a purse and my drapes. NO I was not the one that left him unattended.. My Moluccan cockatoo found a way of escaping his cage the first week I had him.. he would unlock his cage, go walkies, free the cockatiels, steal their toys, eat my painters' easel, go back to his cage, LOCK THE EFFIN DOOR, and sit all innocent looking. When I put a clamp on the lock he unscrewed the hinges. My crow left a trail of destruction worse than any parrot though.

    People With Impossibly Dumb Pets Share Their Stories, Here Are 45 Of The Most Unhinged Ones I once pretended to die in front of my dog to see how he would react. The whole shebang, walking around the yard, clutched my chest, became a crumpled heap on the floor. He ran over (success!..?), sniffed my carcass, stepped on my boob (he's 30kg), and then ran a metre away and peed whilst staring at my dead body.

    White dog on a leash crossing the street, related to disturbing pet behavior stories. Oh my god.

    When my little Tater was just a puppy, he got off of his leash and ran all over the yard. Then he made his way out into the street.

    A car was coming.

    He didn't get out of the way.

    The car went right over him.

    I cried so hard.

    But thankfully, he was so tiny then that all the car did was literally go above him.

    But he's learned his lesson about the streets.

    I'm lucky my puppy has never been ran over, she likes to squeeze past us into the front and runs around the neighborhood, one night she got out of the neighborhood at like 11:00 pm, on a school night, I'm just lucky she stays away from cars and the only time she left the neighborhood was at night so not to many cars around, I'm also lucky we have an awesome set of neighbors in the house on the corner who always gets her for us, they are so nice

    Growing up we had a cat that would lie down in the middle of the road, and make cars drive around him. We lived on a very quiet cul de sac. Then we moved to a busy road. The cat unfortunately did not adjust his expectations for the faster and more frequent cars, and the predictable outcome resulted.

    Red Betta fish with flowing fins on a black background, showcasing pet behavior for SEO. I have a pet betta (fighting fish). He's an adorable grumpy little bastard.

    He likes to pluck snails off the side of the tank with his mouth and spit them onto the gravel.

    He also chases the ember tetras he lives with but he's much too slow to catch them so most of the time he just flares his fins and grumpily stares at them as they dart away.

    Gray cat with white chest sitting in a wicker basket. Broke and couldn't get the usual wet food flavour that my cat loves. He ended up peeing in the basket of freshly laundered clothes just before I have an interview the next day. Had to go to self service laundry at 2am at night so I have clothes to wear to the interview the next morning. Fun time :/.

    It could be that your (male I assume) cat has urinary issues and some diets will make his urine alkaline and can lead to bladder stones and eventually a blocked urethra which will kill him without treatment. You might ask your vet about a urine test and keep him on diets that won't make his urine alkaline. Its not known why some cats do this. Just a thought.

It's not like my dog would jump up or get in the way. You put her bowl down and she started to eat. Well my sister was all a out alpha Human bla bla bla. My dog peed and crapped on her bed.

    A black dog swimming in a calm body of water, only its head visible above the surface, showcasing pet behavior. I guess not the worst thing she's done, but the most exasperating: my Labrador jumped into a canal, swam around for a while, then realised she couldn't get out again.

    My mum tried to pull her out by grabbing her collar, but it broke, which commenced in mild panic. Luckily we managed to drag her out without having to jump in.

    She also eats cat poo.

    My Hamster once ate through a pair of brand new jeans that I'd left way too close to her cage. She must have reached through the bars to pull them through.

    My horse is the worst. He's grey, but insists on rolling in the mud every day. He's stood on my foot. He's chucked me off five times in the past six months. Other than that, he's GREAT.

    All horses roll in the mud. Usually right after you give them a bath. Right before a show. Except my mare, she was fussy as all get out, jump a puddle as long as she was to avoid getting her little feet wet. Yes, her name was Princess, no, she had that name when I bought her.

    No, you just neglected to care for your hamster properly. Take it as a learning lesson if you ever get another small prey animal and try not to anthropomorphize them, it leads to making serious errors in judgement. Please don't hate cats over this, it was a normal and natural reaction.

    When a fog is eating poop, either it's because the dog watched his mother do the same (in order to keep the nest clean), or because the dog's diet is deficient in certain nutrients. It's a good idea to check with a vet to be sure.

    Had the exact same springboard situation with a 4 month old kitten. Claws were still actual needles at that point. The closest gashes were less than 5mm from my eye. The claws certainly would had gone through my eyelid like it was nothing and into the eye. My wife and I enacted the no cats in the bedroom while sleeping rule at that point. Edited to 5mm. Thanks Sandra. Though I have lived in a metric country for 19 years, I still get confused if you can't measure something in a random manner.

    Not autistic, just a pit bull! They are adorable goofballs & I love them, but my personal experience has shown me that brainpower isn't their strong point. We had one that would consistently run into the wall that was a good 6 feet from the bottom of the stairs. For 15 years, she was always surprised that there was a wall there! She was a gorgeous, loyal, beautiful, loving dog but thick as a brick.😂 RIP Sasha, I'll see you at the Rainbow Bridge. 💜

    I have a pitbull. I used to have a T-shirt with a life size print of Edward Cullen's face on it. Noticed some days that my dog was barking his a*s off at me. After the 4th or 5th time, I realized it was the shirt. So maybe I'm the dumb one. He barks at any kind of scary face- pumpkins, smiley faces, Halloween stuff and especially clothing with faces on it

    People With Impossibly Dumb Pets Share Their Stories, Here Are 45 Of The Most Unhinged Ones We have a super fluffy, super large Leonberger dog named Baloo, who is about 2 1/2. We live in a tiny town in the mountains where there is often wildlife present. He is so furry and soft that we just love to scratch and kiss his face. One time, we let him out to do his business and when he came back, I gave him face kisses and found out the hard way that he just rubbed his face in carnivorous animal s**t. Another time, I was giving him kisses and a bug jumped on me, then back onto his face where it burrowed deep in his fur. Apparently, he rubbed his face in deer s**t and got fleas, double whammy.

    We also have a little Parrotlet that we love to death, even though he is a little bastard. One day, I got box wine drunk and passed out on the couch after cleaning the house. I left his cage open, as we usually did. When my SO got home from work that night, he woke me up, freaking out because Kit wasn't in his cage and we couldn't hear his chirpy self, or locate him. We searched all night, in our 2 bedroom apartment, and my SO even went through the couch thinking I may have accidently squished him or something. Our only conclusion, that our sweet, wouldn't hurt a soul, fluffy dog must have ate him. My SO went to work the next day completely heartbroken, and I tried to go back to sleep since I was exhausted from crying all night. As I was falling asleep, I could swear I heard him chirp a few times, so I ran into the living room, whistling like a crazy woman, and nothing. I decided my mind was playing tricks, cried some more, and tried to go back to sleep. This happened two more times. The third time, I really started hearing him go crazy. I ran back into the living room, certai this was no trick, and here he comes from underneath the couch. He must have crawled inside it and fell asleep because it was dark. Bonus b******e points, I called my SO's boss and asked that he tell him asap so he wouldnt be depressed all day, boss forgets until later in the afternoon until they finally ask him what's wrong.

    TL;DR Dog likes to rub his fluffy face in poo before I give him kisses, resulting in fleas at one point. Lost bird, searched all night with broken hearts, ultimately blamed dog. Bird chirps up the next morning and comes out of the sofa.

    The first time we moved my husband and I each stood at a door so that none of our 5 cats got out. after thing but a hutch cabinet was gone we went to get all of them. 2 were missing. We screamed around the neighborhood, neither one had every been outside, went to the new house to see if they had got moved in something. I'm crying swearing we should never have moved, etc.. My husband saw something black poking out from under the hutch and moved it. they were both under it sound asleep.

    People With Impossibly Dumb Pets Share Their Stories, Here Are 45 Of The Most Unhinged Ones My rude-and-stubborn-a*s beagle hates my mom. To be fair, she doesn't like him much either. One day, after he was scolded by her (probably because he went through the trash again) he creeped upstairs (he never goes to the second floor), jumped on her bed and pooped on HER side of the bed.

    He has done this more than once.

    I had a uncle that had a Chihuahua , it hated everyone. You couldn't even twitch without it being at your feet ready to bite someone. I hated that dog. I don't doubt that my brothers and sisters and my cousins also hated that dog.

    Studies have shown that chihuahuas are one of the most aggressive dogs breeds. The others being the daschund and the jack russell. Except a friend of mine has a way with chi's, they are the nicest dogs.

    A small dog with a pink bow sits on grass, looking playful. This was when I was about 12. I'd say around 7 years ago. My mom just bought her dream dog this adorable little s**t head Yorkie, who was 2 lbs at the time, named monster. My mom was out of the house shopping leaving me in charge if the dog. Somehow he managed to climb on top of our kitchen counter, take a look of hatred into my very soul and then took this leap of faith onto our hardwood floors. He hit hard, yelped and then seized up for about 20 mins while I was on the phone with my mom balling my f*****g eyes out because I just witnessed a puppy s*icide attempt.

    He's still alive and he's 4 lb fur ball of a*****e.

    My family bought a Yorkie when I was around 14 from a puppy mill. Brother wanted a small dog so my mom picked a Yorkie. Sick, full of worms etc. I had fed him and gave him water while deworming him. He only listened to me which my family hated (he was food agressive with them, not me), the one time I was gone on a week-long school trip he refused to eat for three days and kept looking at the door when they said my name. And when my little brother jokingly tried to punch me, he actually attacked (didn't bite, but threatened) standing between us. So not all of them are a******s, but you do have to respect the fact that they're small with a big heart.

    People With Impossibly Dumb Pets Share Their Stories, Here Are 45 Of The Most Unhinged Ones My cat was an evil hunter. When my brother got a pet mouse we were aware that we always have to keep the door to the room it was kept shot, otherwise the mouse would end very fast as a cat snack.
    My cat, the evil genius she was, figured pretty fast out that we were keeping her away from some delicious meal and while we were very careful keeping the door shut she figured out how to enter the room ninja style. Since the ‘mouse room’ was under the roof with a skylight she basically left the house over the skylight of the living room and entered over the skylight of the ‘mouse room’ on the other side of the house. My brother had this mouse for whole 3 days. RIP Jerry. Before and after this day- cat was never seen on the roof.

    When I got mice for the first time I bought a bad cage for them and they escaped the first night. Intuition or something woke me up and I saw my old cat staring in fascination at the two escape artists (who we just caught in the act). I don't want to know what would have happened if I hadn't woken up at that point.

    Generally speaking a fox will not attack a cat. The cat has weapons that cn seriously harm a fox, is much bigger than a fox would view as prey, and has the agility to avoid if cornered. I've witnessed a cornered cat (not one of mine). facing down two adult foxes in my garden - they were big and bold, didn't even run away when I shooed them off, but they were smart enough not to try and tackle the cat.

    I had two cats that didn't get along (i didn't introduce them properly). One day, they decided to fight behind the sofa that was against the wall. Otter(one of my cat) being scared shitless, literally sprayed diarrhea all over the wall and the sofa. To make it worse she was squirming to get out backwards, covering herself with her own feces and decided to run all over the house. I almost cried cleaning that mess up.

    When my dude was a kitten he got violent liquid diarrhea from something. Every time he pooped it scared him and he'd pinball over the entire apartment spraying liquid s**t like it was spray paint. Lasted 3 days and by the end I was nearly broken from chasing him and cleaning. I'd have kept him in a single room but he'll straight up shoulder charge doors non stop till he gets let out.

    A black and white dog with a curious expression sitting on a wooden floor. Dog took massive dump in my apartment. Then the roomba scheduled to run mid-day did its job. Spread poop f*****g EVERYWHERE!

    Technically the dog just pooped in the house and didn't drag that filth around by himself so I decided against punishing him. I did however start a new "no poop in the house" training regiment the next day.

    As a kid we had a Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) named Boris. He would eat anything. He once chewed up our cordless phone and swallowed the battery from it, which began leaking acid in his stomach. I think my parents had to pay around $700 to have it removed. Another time he somehow broke into the pantry and ate an entire bag of prunes. Then the prunes did what prunes do, and he s**t all over the house.

    Hardly. A quick ddg tells me the average dog insurance in the USA is about $60 per month. Just put it into a savings account and keep a better eye on your dog, would only take a year os so before you're in profit even if you do have to face a bill of this size.

    My Rosie (cat) has a bowel hernia so we essentially have to keep her poo as close to liquid as possible. She gets fed laxatives and other meds most meals. She wipes her bum all over the place. We've put down bathroom mats on the way out of her litter box which she uses to wipe her bum. Though the past few days she's sprinted out of the litter box and then wiped her poo all over the master bed. Lots of laundry. But... can't really get angry at her. I'm literally feeding her laxatives.

    Our overly hyper hell-dog Spitz named Warlock once ate $250 in 50 dollar bills that fell out of a friends pocket while he was crashing on our couch... We followed the dog around for a couple of days to get enough and large enough pieces for the bank to give us replacement bills, ended up getting $150 back (and the bank manager was NOT pleased with what he got in trade...)

    Turns out you need like 51% of the bill and a majority of the serial numbers visible to get a damage replacement. Friend wanted the dog's hide... but didn't get it.

    Chocolate is very dangerous for dogs. My friend had a dumb Labrador who was really motivated by food. During Xmas, they left a candy dish on the living room table,thinking (despite all evidence to the contrary) that he would leave it alone. When they came back, he ad eaten all the chocolate cookies and the wrapped liquor chocolates, foil and all. They got ahold of the vet and were instructed how to get him to throw up. Plus they had to monitor his poo, which was diarrhea with sparkly foil in it. He looked so happy. “Best day ever!”

    A dog lying on a brown couch, looking tired, with sunlight illuminating its face, representing pets in everyday situations. Ate a bunch of used aquarium sand. Cost me about $1700 at 3am at the emergency vet. It hardened in his intestine, if it would've hardened in the small intestine I could be out $3000+. It's cool though he's my bro. If I owned a CD drive I would upload the xrays for delicious karma.

    Also one time him and my toddler stepsister ate a bunch of anti-depressants after being unsupervised for about 2.5 minutes. They used to get up to a lot of mishchief together but that was probably the worst. She went to the hospital and he generally seemed to not give a s**t.

    Oh yeah and the time he knocked over the trashcan and crawled in it and rolled around and then meticulously spread each piece all over the floor and shredded it. Like 100 times.

    Or maybe the about 500 times he has stolen my entire plate of food including whole chickens.

    Or maybe the time I went to smoke a cigarette around midnight and came back to find him suffocating inside a bag of tortilla chips, slowly losing consciousness while violently eating the chips. And the PTSD he had from the event for about 6 months where he would act annoying and weird every night at midnight and bark at me and wake everyone up. Every night.

    Or maybe the time he bit my finger hard enough to chip the bone.

    Or that time he dug a hole through the bathroom door.

    Or when he released all the other dogs and relaxed in the front yard while they went swimming in a pond a mile away.

    Stupid little f*ckbag is my best friend.

    Edit: Yesterday my girlfriend got a package from lush, opened it, and took it in the bathroom to rub it all over her body or whatever the hell girls do with that stuff, leaving the package on the floor. He casually walks over and is like "oh you ordered me some biscuits, thanks" and starts calmly eating the packing peanuts. (luckily lush uses biodegradeable plant-based packaging, I stopped him obviously but he ate 2).

    One time I was hella drunk sitting at my computer. I knocked a glass over and it broke. I'm like "man I'm not getting down on the floor drunk and picking up shards of glass and vacuuming, ill just do it tomorrow" and threw a blanket over it. He promptly walks over and curls up on it very comfily, and gives me this "life is pain" look.

    Forbid in her food can help. Its called coprophagia which sounds a lot better when you are telling Grandma what the cat is doing.

    Silhouette of a running cat with its shadow against a textured background, related to disturbing pet behaviors. In our old apartment the en suite for the master bedroom had a few problems. Mainly being the toilet would slowly fill back up with waste.


    This wasn't a huge issue to us as we actually preferred the main bathroom and positioning of the other bedroom so we used the main bedroom as a spare room, and the en suite was only used to house the kitty litter tray.


    I also got ready for work in the mornings in the bedroom. This particular morning I was already running late, I was just getting ready to run out the door for the latest bus I could get to still be at work on time, however that was when things also went to s**t. Literally.


    I could see it all happen in my mind seconds before it even occurred, but there was nothing I could do.


    My weirdo of a cat decided it was time to rocket from room to room in an almost kitty d**g fueled rage (as he usually does...) he races into the master bedroom, stops in his tracks, stares at me and then does this ridiculous backflip and ran into the en suite and jumped straight onto the sink.
    I see him getting ready to jump down onto the toilet seat to then jump onto the ground, but this is where my gut knew things were about to go very wrong.


    My boyfriend was in the master bathroom at the time taking care of morning business, and as he often tells the story all he could hear was a very abrupt "no! Jeffery! Don't... *thump* oh god.. OH NO! OH F**K! NO! STOP!! OH GOD!!!!"


    Rather than landing on the seat like he obviously intended, the clumsy f**k had slipped into the bowl that I unfortunately had not flushed (as I hadn't cleared his tray that day yet) and stupidly left open. As soon as he hit the water I knew I had to run in there to grab him because all I could see was him running around everywhere, tracking poop all over the carpet. Nope.. I was too late. He torpedoes out of the shitter does about 2 or 3 laps around the bedroom as I'm chasing him around screaming and cursing, runs out of the bedroom and then down the hallway where i finally caught the little bugger in the loungeroom.


    Needless to say it was quite an awkward phone call to my boss having to explain why I had to stay home and steam clean the carpets and bath my cat...


    We never left the lid open in there after that again.


    **TL:DR** cat painted the carpet with his liquid s**t.

    Do not scoop the litter box and put it in a toilet. You will mess up the plumbing and if you have a septic tank you will have to replace it and maybe the septic lines.

    No wonder you had plumbing issues. Never flush cat litter down the toilet. Sheesh!
