Cats a dickhead 🤣

Anyone else got a cat that’s a complete dickhead.

I have one very well behaved older cat and we recently decided to add another one to the mix.

He is an absolute terror 🤣. We leave for holiday tomorrow and I finished deep cleaning the house for the house sitter. Put everything away.

Walk back into the kitchen and he has somehow found (I have no idea how as they are kept in an enclosed glass jar) a tea bag.

Hes ripped it open and dragged it across three rooms leaving a trail of it everywhere. Got an emergency appointment at the vet incase he’d ingested it.

He’s fine.

Every day something 🤣🤣 picture of the culprit attached

He’s a very cute cat I have to say so can understand why he gets away with stuff ha

This is Suki - she has decided to drape herself across Noggin who was having a lovely sleep. She looks like your cat - the "butter wouldn't melt" look and total innocence. Love 'em

😂 I always say mines and arsehole. Someone at work said that was horrible, went to someone else with a cat and first thing she said was hers is an arsehole 😂.
(When it uploads) I have attached a photo of said arsehole being an arsehole. I had just cleaned up 🤦‍♀️

Look at his face! He knows he's an arsehole 🤣🤣

Mine’s a dickhead. She’s an orange long hair with absolutely zero brains. I have a magnetic fly curtain on the back door and she can’t work it out at all. I have to open it for her. You just have to walk into it and it opens. The other day she got out through it then sat there crying because she couldn’t get in. Mate. Just do whatever you did to get out there!
She also spreads her dry food far and wide and tries to take you out on the stairs by running down between your legs.
She yells for dinner from about 2 pm (dinner is at 4ish).
Good job she’s gorgeous.

❤️ Please more stories and pics.

From you and everyone.

Do any of your cats so the innocence thing then?

Lemonade2011 · 31/08/2025 22:08

yes!!!! Penny!! Just over a year old. Absolute nut job climbs on the curtain poles then can’t get down, winds up the dog by chastising her sister into play fighting round the house at 100 miles an hour whilst partner is trying to work in office so he’s on calls and dogs going his nut cause Penny is charging about mad. She climbs in cupboards, she carries balls like a dog, sits on the fridge the list of madness is endless!! She’s original that’s for sure, beautiful and Tabby!!!

The court finds him innocent of all charges.. there’s just no way a kitty with that angelic little sleeping pose could possibly do such a thing!

One of my cats steals a tomato each night and eats part of it before rolling it on floor.
Another one came in carrying a baby hare and stashed it in the playroom.
The third one is generally well behaved but I can’t give him any medicine or spot ons. But he will happily be carried around the house and cuddled by his 6 year old owner all day.

Wait - please explain the baby hare thing…..

Love this thread. Cats really are absolute twats 😻😻😻

Me too. They are a species constantly evolving and they fascinate me.

I tried playing a video but keep being asked to sign in….why! It’s just a cat video. Anyway, all I can do is attach a screenshot of the videos, hope it helps!

We’d be in trouble wouldn’t we! I continue to be amazed at them observing and copying us. You know how we try to cover up an embarrassment, they do too. Have you seen them pretending to not do something?

I haven’t explained it very well, I’ll try to put up a video.

I know exactly what you mean but they do it with far more aplomb than we do!

If I could be as fluffily gorgeous as my cats I wouldn't need to work for a living!

They have it all sorted don’t they. The little cheats.

When cats were invented the mad scientist decided that, in order for them to get away with their psychopathic behaviour, they had to be made absolutely beautiful and with guile.

And here we are.

Both mine are dickheads but they're mine and I wouldn't change them for the world. Even if they do wake me up at 4am, don't come home until midnight, ignore what I'm saying. Oh and stick their bums in my face when I'm minding my own business.

My flat would feel very empty without them.

All cats are dickheads. Their contrarian nature, self importance and complete refusal to do what we want them to do is what makes them so awesome.

They are benefit scroungers with the demeanour of aristocrats. And with such elegance.

I wish I could carry it off.

He may be a dickhead but he's an utterly gorgeous one so he can get away with it!!
