I've put privacy film on the front room windows and he can't watch the world go by any more. He's sulking.

I think your cat’s broken 🐈‍⬛

Everything is WRONG today

How have you devastated your cat today?
Furries · 31/03/2021 10:25

I visited a friend yesterday who I haven’t seen for ages. This meant I had the scent of her dog and horses on me when I got home. Which resulted in both the cat AND the dog being pissed off with me. Double trouble, definitely not good!

Silkiescat · 31/03/2021 03:49

It's 3.48am and now Silkiecat is furious that no-one has made her breakfast yet and she's eaten her midnight meal already. Angry

I wore a striped t-shirt. This was visually displeasing to him.

popspops · 31/03/2021 02:44

It rained when he slept in the unused fireplace and he got wet. I failed to solve this unacceptable state of affairs.

Toddlerteaplease · 31/03/2021 02:10

I shaved Magics tummy as she had som really bad matts. (Thought is is still speaking to
Me)

Craftgirlx · 31/03/2021 01:38

I had a phonecall with my tutor today so naturally she had to meow the entire duration of the call because I wasn’t giving her any attention. When the call ended so did the crying, she no longer wanted my attention 🙃

Silkiescat · 31/03/2021 01:34

Silkiecat is 16 and yesterday she was sad that we put 3 out of 4 of our old dining chairs out for council collection and she sat on the fourth quickly - we were always keeping that one for her.

Then DD went to the bathroom at 1am and didn't also rush downstairs to give the cat a cuddle so she howled and then DD went down and cuddled her.

HarleyQuinn Our cat loved our baby for until she could crawl and grew and she was horrified. It took her until DD was about 10 and capable of feeding the cat to be forgiven.

MsPeterPan · 31/03/2021 01:34

We put our big tough tom cat in a babygro because he has licked his back raw. I think he might kill me in my sleep tonight.

Ffs2020 · 31/03/2021 01:27

Dcat 1 is annoyed because I couldn't see him through a wall. Also I washed the blanket his granny made him and obviously it might not be his blanket anymore.

Dcat 3 is annoyed that I wouldn't let her eat the hamster.

Dcat 2 is an angel. Dcat 4 is a little mental but always happy. They don't get annoyed.

caringcarer · 31/03/2021 01:24

I am expecting my 5 cats to get very angry with me as I am turning off the underfloor heating in the kitchen. It has been on since September and somehow they will guess it was me so I will Probably not get cuddles over weekend from all of them.

caringcarer · 31/03/2021 01:14

3 of my 5 cats had to go for their annual vaccine booster today. They were not happy especially as vet was running late due to some emergency. They had to be in cat cages for 40 mins waiting for vacation.

Kittensat36 · 31/03/2021 01:11

Oh I forgot the hairdryer incident the other week. HM Cat was on the bed, I came in, sat on the bed and started to dry my hair. I must have passed the blast over her because she leaped to her feet, glared at me, then stomped off to the living room.

She wouldn't sit in the 'sweet spot' for 3 days after that. Mea Maxima culpa.

HopingForOurRainbowBaby · 31/03/2021 00:06

Cut his head fur because he'd somehow managed to get something icky stuck to his head. Of course you can't even tell where I've cut the offending item out but in Felix's Kitty mind I've chopped a great big whopping chunk of his fur off and left him with a big bald patch 😹

@ifonly4

We've got roofers here. One went off outside growling, the other retreated to the back of the settee growling!
I have visions of a growling roofer hiding behind your settee Grin in my defence it's been a long day!

@GloriousGoosebumps

Ours seems to have recovered but she was extremely unhappy that three adults had decided to wrap her in a towel and hold her down while forcing a syringe full of pain killer into her mouth. I'd love to know how the vet manages single handedly. In any event, she ran out of the room but returned pretty quickly and is now asleep on the footstool. All seems to have been forgiven.
Ha!! This made me snort - I manage my two on my own but it's not pretty - and every single time I consider paying my neighbour to come and help with all the 8352 paws and claws that appear out of nowhere 😂

Today I fed them the wrong flavour pouch. They're both disgusted (they ate it fine yesterday, my crystal ball is broken)

heymammy · 30/03/2021 23:11

I made him wait by the backdoor before letting him out.

I made him wait on the windowsill before letting him back in.

Later on

I made him wait on the driveway before letting him in.

I am a constant disappointment.

margotsdevil · 30/03/2021 23:07

Rearranged the front room. Before Christmas. She still won't forgive us because she can no longer sit and watch the birds from a particular seat. Instead she sits next to where that seat was and looks at us indignantly waiting for us to move the seat back for her...

SakuraEdenSwan1 · 30/03/2021 23:06

@Newkitty

I let her out. Then I let her in again. Then I let her out again. Then she had to wait a millisecond or two before I let her in again. Outrageous.
Hahaha, cats just do this because they know it will annoy us. I leave my patio door open for this reason because my cat loves pissing both the dogs off on either garden next to us, runs in acting all innocent just to go straight back to do more of the same Grin
SakuraEdenSwan1 · 30/03/2021 23:04

By stopping her pinching Chicken from my sons plate when he went to the toilet, she was persistent I will give her that!

Walesrecommendations · 30/03/2021 23:01

Opened a tin of spaghetti and she came haring in from the garden thinking it was tuna time Sad felt so bad I had to accidentally pour a generous amount of dreamies out in front of her.

KikoMiko · 30/03/2021 22:53

Let her Ladyship out of the front door as she requested. She then promptly jumped up on the lounge window sill and meowed to be let back in less than 30 seconds later. I ignored her for an hour until it was her dinner time and then opened the front door. She wouldn't come in.

I should point out that had she walked around to the back of the house, she could have got in through the car flap at any point, but that wouldn't have inconvenienced me though would it?

UnderHisAye · 30/03/2021 22:40

I touched a carrier bag while he was eating.

He stalked off in protest and is probably hungry under a bush somewhere.

He's a furry idiot.

ILikeTheWineNotTheLabel · 30/03/2021 22:35

He meowed at me TWICE and I didn’t pet him. So now I am not allowed to pet him as I obviously cannot be trusted.
