aibu to disown the cat

[meddie]

Finally getting double glazing done. Have saved for ages. Survey guy turns up to take measurements and hes pretty good looking.
While hes upstairs I am in the kitchen making a brew and as I walk back into the living room , just as he is coming down the stairs I am hit by a wave of the foulest cat shit smell ever.
Whats worse is I cant see anything in the litter tray. I am mortified, guy just made some lame excuse and left without his tea. I still havent found were the kitten hss dropped his bomb. I swear to god I have never smelled anything so bad its invaded the whole house . Kitten is sitting on the rug looking pleased with himself
I am dying with shame

heheheheheeee - maybe the cat was trying to tell you that the DG guy was a shiester and to go with another firm? which you pretty much have to do now as you will be described as stinky cat shit house lady

Cat guffs are the worst.

:(

But a real man would've stayed and brazened it out. She's done you a favour.

You have made a fatal (and typically human) error, OP.

You don't own the cat. The cat owns you!

Argh already signed the contract too. Found the offending item behind the sofa. Thankfully laminate floor. He,s now sitting there cleaning himself and licking his empty nut sack. I think it might be revenge.
I swear it came from the depths of hell

The cat clearly knew he was a wrong un, despite his good looks, and has saved you.

Cats always know best... or so my three tell me.

So he came downstairs and you smell overpowering shit? Are you sure it was the cat?

Not to put even more of a dampened on your already shit day OP (pun kind of intended), but if your cat is suddenly pooing outside of his litter tray he could be ill or stressed and might need to see a vet. It's a pretty classic sign that something is upsetting them.

I have a male cat who takes special care to poo NEXT to the litter tray ...he is a fury little bastard

Send him into exile with my cat, who vomited on the dining table this morning over all DH's business accounts. The table has slats so the puke also ran through onto the seat cushions and my shoes which were under the table. Furious. I feel your pain.

One of my cats climbs into the litter tray but never takes into account the sheer volume of his arse.

His arse overhangs and every time the poo ends up on the floor in front of the tray.

The look of confusion on his little face breaks your heart..!

:(

mogz if the cat has just had his nut sack emptied that might explain why he is feeling ill and stressed enough to do this?

Or litter tray isn't meticulously clean enough.

Not cat-shit related, but ... many years ago, the birthday party of one of my kids (aged 6). Little friends sitting round table, lovely birthday cake in shape of a boat (homemade) ... and bloody cat jumped up on table, ran across it, with dying robin in its mouth, knocked into cake destroying part of it.

Cue weeping kids. Not sure if it was the robin or the ruined cake.

my cat will not go out, the wind has died down now

maybe he is sensing something is on the way. my dads dog always acted strangely before an earthquake (he lives in california)

its a warning

originally posted this on wrong thread no one seemed to notice

Our cat went through a phase of climbing into the sink or bath and peeing directly down the plughole, no matter how clean his litter tray was. No health issues, It really was most strange, we ended up having to spray them with citrus spray, he's got over that but now will only drink water if its in his bowl in the bath, he then plays with it so ends up soaking wet. His current favourite passtime is to go tip it out at 3 am then walk over us with wet paws and bat us until we go refill it!

Beast, yes that could account for it, mine were both quite dopey after their ops. If it happens for more than 24 hours though, or a few times in the course of a week then it's probably something that needs checking, or something needs changing in the home environment.

Hegsy does your cat have any Bengal or Turkish Van in his breeding? My friends have a couple of cats that are half Bengal, half naughty Tom cat that snuck in to the breeding pens, and they insist on peeing in the bath if the door is open and the male always 'washes' his paws in the drinking water fountain.

I feel your pain my 3 are furry bastards too

I have six cats and when they start farting we all leave the room with tears streaming down our faces

OP - Felix gives mine evil farts and shits. Not the fancy sensations stuff, but the bog standard ones.

I've got one who shits over the edge of the litter tray onto the floor - doesn't bother her she just fucks a load of litter over it anyway Newspapers do nothing for that!

I don't know if I'm just a massive tramp, but if my cats started peeing over the bath plughole I think I'd be inclined to let them carry on , provided they had decent aim anyway. I was seriously considering toilet training them at one point. Floor shitter isn't phased by the flush at all and runs in to watch it whirl.

I have a bunny and she uses the litter tray perfectly. You are all being unreasonable for having cats and not lovely little bunnies.

I had a Snow Bengal,,, they're NOT normal. It didn't get in water but loved batting at any flowing from taps. It fetched things like a dog. It LIKED fireworks,, watching them from the windows and insisting on going out. Seemingly fearless, if I wasn't around to let it in it'd stay with any neighbours who'd let it. Slept on its back and would get IN bed rather than on top of it. It hoiked fish and especially frogs from neighbours ponds. I never knew frogs screamed until he took to playing with them by the front door. On the plus side, Bengals only have guard hairs, no undercoat so fleas don't like them. Mine took well to his litter tray,,, a small mercy.

Glad to hear I dont have the only evil furry bastard. Even febreze didnt cover the smell. Hes back in my good books now as hes lying on his back on my lap purring for a tummy tickle. Looking exceptionally fluffy and cute.

He can be disowned along with my bloody cat. I felt sorry for his little face at the window in the rain last night, and couldn't bare the thought of him being out in The Storm, so let him in for the night.

Normally if he wants out he will come and meow loudly at me. Not last night.

He came to the bedroom. And shat all over a pile of washing. Stinkiest, foulest ever smell. So at 2am I was up putting the washing machine on, clearing up shit and throwing the cat out to face The Storm.

At least I didn't have a hot bloke in the bedroom. Only DH.

I have a male and a female. Female has never "been" anywhere except in her litter tray including the two days when we first got her and she refused to come out from behind the sofa. Male cat will use the litter tray if it is clean enough for his liking and near enough... Otherwise he will go wherever is nearest and takes his fancy. This is on top of his many other annoying habits (8kg cat on your head at 3am anybody?).
