Some of us are lucky enough to share our home with a cat. But sooner or later, we have to deal with situations we weren’t prepared for. Maybe it’s dealing with a fluffy food thief or a sleepy furball that enjoys snoozing inside the washing machine. The people from today’s compilation have experienced both, but they still love their mischievous little kitties.
We at Bright Side recognized ourselves in almost every single situation. We recommend you read this with your furry feline friend on your lap.
You can’t beat cat logic.
“I’m pretty convinced that I have the world’s clingiest cat. He loves to be picked up, kissed, held, and above all, he loves taking naps on my lap. This is what happens when I tell him he can’t sit on my lap while I’m trying to work.”
“She stole my bacon and then didn’t eat it...”
“Wash your hands elsewhere...”
“Hmmm, I wonder if she’s still sleeping...”
“Her new favorite nap spot. We can’t close the door when we’re on the toilet.”
No regrets
“2 minutes after turning on the iron...”
“Oh. Were your towels clean?”
“Should I drink store-bought spring water from my bowl? Nope!”
“Trying to slap my phone out of my hand because I had to use the bathroom before I fed him.”
We all wish we spoke cat language
“I bought my bunny a new house and the cat immediately took over.”
Every single day
“Within 5 minutes of setting our pizza on the table...”
Dogs aren’t the only pets who like going on walks.
“He has been officially diagnosed as a rascal after I paid over $200 to try to find out if there was something wrong with him.”
“It turned out he’s just learned how to manipulate people so he can get more attention.”
Never introduce robot vacuums to cats.
“Look what magically fell from the cupboard, ma!”
Unfortunately, birthdays are only once a year
What habits do your pets have?
