@Mydogisagentleman

That is so gross but hilarious.
How flattered were you?! Grin

@TabithaTowers
I used to have a half Maine Coon, so we called him a Caine Moon.
I'd love a pedigree one but ouch, they are expensive and still cause carnage, so my three wee moggy girls will do for now.

Too many things!

Dog 1
Ate a whole babyel cheese with the wax on. Had no idea until I had to pull the wax out of his bum.
Was so desperate for some spaghetti bolognaise one night he did a weird launch type jump directly into DHs bowl
Used to have a thing for stealing DTs bottles, I'd put one down for a second and it would be gone and he be chewing on the teat.

Dog 2
Peed on a woman in the park. Full on peed not a quick cock of the leg.
His greeting to people that came round was to pee on them. Particularly my now DH.

@FannysSteadiedBuffs

You win this thread! Crying at this. Grin I would loved to have seen this. What a dog!!

Ex's dog once jumped into the river for a swim. Swam over to a small island in the river, ran up and down, refused to come back. Ex jumped in and swam to the island, only to get there and realise the dog was back on the riverbank. So he swam back. As did the dog- to the island. It took an hour and a half and the aid of a bystander to get them both on the same side of the riverbank at the same time.

Shat on teen DS's bed three times in one day. Three times! She was ill to be fair to her but Envy Envy He got home from college, found it, decided (as would I!) that it was beyond washing and trying to save so binned the whole duvet and case and called me to leave a voicemail saying "Mum don't worry, everything is ok but I REALLY need you buy me a new duvet before you come home please, trust me I need it today, you'll understand" I was strangely proud of how well he dealt with it on his own because I think it would have turned my stomach!

LlamaofDrama · 20/11/2020 10:25

Cat brought in and released a starling, which fled, it (bird) went into the grill section of the cooker and died there. I found it when I accidentally toasted it.

farawayplanet · 20/11/2020 10:28

My previous, now deceased, cat bit me on my hand and it swelled up, went purple and started to go up my arm. I had to have antibiotics and a tetanus jab.

BrigitsBigKnickers · 20/11/2020 10:29

Stole my knickers out of the washing basket, had a nice chew and then hid them outside behind my apple tree for the gardener to find. ( not delicate little lacey things either- ones that keep your kidneys warm!)

Jumped into the back of a van and got driven 20 miles away. I lived in the middle of Paris. I put posters up around the neighbourhood. My heart was broken. The next day, a man rang the number on the poster and said the cat had jumped out of his van on a delivery. He worked on my street. He could take me to the cat. So, I got the van with him (stupidly). He drove me 20 miles into the suburbs... and then down a back alley. He parked up. I thought maybe I was going to die. He pointed to a vent in the side of the building and told me the cat was in there. A sodding cellar. Right. This is it. Suddenly, my cat's head popped out of the vent... and the man drove us home. We became quite friendly after that and I gave his kid English lessons. The same cat also got stuck on the roof and I had to have the fire brigade out. This was when we'd moved to the countryside. The Parisian fire services wouldn't have come to save him. They had to go up on a crane to get him down. Such a cheeky cat.

ghostyslovesheets · 20/11/2020 11:03

How long have you got?

My lovely old cat died at 18 and was buried in the garden - 4 weeks later our dog dug her up and ran round the garden having enormous fun with her festering corpse

I have 5 cats now - cat 1 bring bread into the garden every day , 2 is no problem, 4 & 5 are a bit mad but both young

-cat 3 brings live prey in through my bedroom window most mornings at 4-5am, pees on everything (including an open suitcase full of clothes the day we where off on holiday, my work laptop bag, post, my bed) is good obsessed and takes anything he wants off your plate if you leave it for five seconds, ran off with half a Christmas chicken last year, climbs the tree and drives us mad - he’s my favourite 😻

steppemum · 20/11/2020 11:16

my mum's cat used to catch a shrew/mouse every night.

Then eat it on the kicthen floor.

On a good day you would walk into the kitchen turn on the light and find a whole dead mouse/shrew

On a bad day, you would come downstairs, forget to turn on the light, walk into the kitchen and step in a pile of mouse entrails and blood.

Last week I was teaching on zoom and looked up and saw a huge rat sitting on my indoor doormat by the front door. Fortunately it was dead. Cat nowhere to be seen.

Ladybird345 · 20/11/2020 11:22

Ate the curtains whilst in a crate that was the other side of the room (talented dog)
Smashed the oven
Broke the dryer
Broke the washing machine
Ate the sofa
Chewed the wall
Broke the dog crate

Catsick36 · 20/11/2020 11:30

My cat regularly used to shit on my pillow. Crawl under the duvet and wee. I'd get in from work about 330am straight into bed.

GeidiPrimes · 20/11/2020 11:36

Ran through the brambles and made his ears pour with blood, got covered in it. Bathed him to remove the blood and he rubbed himself all over the carpet, re-opening the cuts. He then runs through the house, shaking his head. Blood spatters everywhere, like a scene from American Psycho.

Brand new pair of Samsung wireless buds - he takes them out of the case, chews and thoughtfully leaves ruined earbuds side by side.

Cats on the other hand, v. well behaved apart from the little one who occasionally wakes me up by upending the glass of water next to my bed all over me. Not the best way to wake up.

MarmiteyCrumpets · 20/11/2020 12:01

My current little sod routinely digs for and snarfs down truffles, i.e. cat shit.

A now-departed collie cross once stole a family's picnic. Cringe!

Another now-departed collie bit a guy, who was playing beach volleyball, on the arse (the one and only time he ever did anything of the sort). Thankfully the guy accepted my profuse apologies.

Oh, and the picnic-stealer also had extremely runny diarrhea all over my car's back seat. Neither the smell nor the stains ever came out.

everyonesmama · 20/11/2020 12:08

apparently it was pissing on the carpet protector at 5 yesterday morning just before DH went downstairs in socks ....................... pmsl Halloween Grin

elliejjtiny · 20/11/2020 12:13

My cat brought in a rabbit and a pigeon that he had killed. Ate half of each and then left the remains under the dining table for later. I cleared up the mess while heaving as my 9 year old ds laughed hysterically at me and the cat glared.

Strokethefurrywall · 20/11/2020 12:14

Shit all over the house plenty of times,
barfed on the floor and then lick it up,
Eaten Oakley sunglasses and a pair of ASICS running shoes
Pissed all over the couch
Eaten the bottom stair in our home with very expensive bamboo wood floors.
Chewed the wood on the expensive blinds.
Eaten the kids LEGO
Eaten the kids dinner.

2 dogs. I don't have rugs for the same reason. Never getting another one!

picklemewalnuts · 20/11/2020 12:34

Mine was a chewer. He crunched through a tv remote, a phone and a chair leg. He'll still have a nice pencil, should he happen to find one.

Worst time was when he chewed a visitor's shoe. Blush

He was sneaky- he stopped for ages then had a brief relapse when we'd stopped paying attention.

Current bad behaviour- asking to go out, and when you get up to let him he steals your seat or warm space in the bed. It's mainly DH who falls for that, mind.

NoisyBrain · 20/11/2020 12:48

A few summers ago we noticed an unpleasant smell in the lounge but couldn't find the source and assumed it was the bins outside which weren't far from the open window.

After a few days of increasing pong, DP found a mouse corpse under the TV unit, courtesy of the cat.

Said cat also appears to purposely come into our cream-carpeted bedroom when he needs to barf up a furball.

Oh and he has also savaged my arm and DSS's leg on separate occasions when he got spooked by something. He's a lot more chilled these days thankfully, but we often joke that it's a good job we love him as he'd be pretty hard to rehome!

FannysSteadiedBuffs · 20/11/2020 12:52

@steppemum @IdblowJonSnow
The dog was a cocker spaniel with nothing between his ears. The ex wasn't exactly Mastermind material either.

And - it happened more than once Grin

Riv12345 · 20/11/2020 12:53

My cat shits on my bathroom floor. At least twice a day

Then come downstairs and stares at me as if to say

Can you smell it ?!

SeasonallySnowyPeasant · 20/11/2020 13:09

Hamster: chewed through the router cable the night before I started a new job in the middle of lockdown. I had to tether my laptop to my mobile for a week.

TheNationsFavourite · 20/11/2020 13:51

My DH's spaniel ran down to the beach at Lulworth Cove, joined a wedding party who were paddling in the shallow water, shat explosively into the waves and ran away just as the foul yellow miasma reached her veil...

TotallyUninspired · 20/11/2020 14:16

My cat is generally an angel but has twice consumed huge quantities of frog spawn from a neighbour's pond and barfed it up all over the carpet. Just disgusting.
