If pets were on 'Am I being unreasonable?'

[AmbiguousAlex]

I'm unable to understand why more of my dog treats haven't been bought and also why I haven't been the only one who has had them. I mean they're made for dogs so that means they're only for dogs, right? No other animals like Syrian hamsters for example can have them? I've had none since the beginning of this week, I've tried multiple times to let my owner know that I'd like some only to be shown an empty plastic Chinese takeaway carton more times than I can count and I'm beginning to get so fed up to the point where I'm just randomly going into the bedroom a few times per day to argue and throw my weight around.

Things blew up this evening though! I immediately sat down near the two Syrian hamster cages after I had barged in and before I knew I was in the midst of a breakdown. All I can remember was staring at my owner right in the eyes whilst shaking and letting out a continuous growl that got louder and louder to the point where I thought there was a bloomin' earthquake happening. All I wanted was to desperately get the attention of my horrible owner so that they could open the cage door and get the small bit of treat that was left so I could get my meaty fix.

So, was I being unreasonable to have a massive tantrum over my dog treats tonight? Please let me know. 🐶

My mum has absolutely no appreciation for my efforts to protect her from danger. A few nights ago there was ANOTHER DOG in the street outside OUR HOUSE and she just lay there fast asleep?? Of course I took it upon myself to jump on her pillow, stand up at the window and bellow at the interloper outside to scare them away. Yet mum went nuts?? Starting getting on at ME that it was the ‘middle of the fucking night’ and I was ‘standing on her hair’! And she had the cheek to complain that my bum hole was right in her face!

I don’t know why I bother. Bunch of ungrateful twats. Next time I’ll just let the strange dog sniff the fence

AIBU to choose my portal of entry into the food supply via the windows on the roof, especially at night?, I choose this way as obviously I want to be in ASAP to demand food so I can sniff and be not be impressed and leave via the next available exit ( there’s some hole in the door)
There is NEVER any appreciation for the furry presents I bring home ( I’m sure they’re not squeals of delight!!)
And what the hell is the big deal about fleas?its like a constant tickle rub 😹🙀😽

The humans finally left for the day giving me and the Maine coon free run of the place but they forgot to open the baby gates to the bathroom our litter tray and the kitchen so I crapped in the babies cot 🤗

AIBU to be pissed off that our humans can’t stick to a reasonable bloody schedule?

There we are, every morning, waiting for them to appear to give us our breakfast before changing our rugs, giving us a brush so we look our best and then taking us out to the field where we can spend all day stuffing our faces, snoozing and occasionally chasing one another around like idiots?

They know we like a sensible routine and to come in to nice clean stables with full haylage nets freshly filled water buckets and lots of nice apples and carrots to snack on. Not too bloody much to ask, is it? Instead, we are often left waiting at the field gate for the humans to bother to show up. We stamp our feet to let them know how pissed off the crappy standard of service, but it doesn’t improve.

So, are we being unreasonable?

So, when we're out in our run on the grass, we want to STAY out. Why can't she get it? Yeah, yeah, it's dark and cold and gets damp and we haven't got our cosy sleeping nests, hay rack and veggies like in our hutch, but we're rebel, cool teenage guinea pigs.....

AIBU to wait until my owner has picked my shite up and hosed the grass down before curling another one out immediately?
My owner calls me a mobile colostomy bag!!

I already know I'm not being unreasonable but must vent before I explode. The big human had the audacity to actually take me out of the field last night so the little humans could ride me around in circles. They both know that it bores me shitless but I had to remind them by firmly digging my heels into the freshly harrowed school surface and refusing to walk another step.

On top of that the big one told me TO MY FACE that I've gotten fat! Apparently my ribs have disappeared and if my arse gets any rounder my winter rugs won't fit....and that's a disaster dahling, she knows I shiver at the hint of rain but because I grew up on the Welsh mountains I'm expected to just cope. I am shocked that she doesn't realise that I have become accustomed to a certain standard of living and will not tolerate such shoddy treatment. I must show my displeasure by devising a cunning plan that results in an expensive emergency vet call out.

Any who, I can't chat all day as I have fan club of tourists small children waiting to adore me and a herd of pygmy goats to terrorise. Caio caio dahling..

OH MY GOD!! She's had my paws cut off!!!!

She took me to the groomer lady after the park, had to suffer the indignity of a bath and a bloody ridiculous haircut (she's just laughing and calling me Shaun, but it took WEEKS to build up that much fur matted round some rather lovely fox and cow shit) and I thought I'd pay her back. She'd put clean sheets on the bed today so I got home, went straight up to make sure the beautiful patterns my paws make were reinstated on the duvet cover AND SHE'S HAD MY PAWS CUT OFF: there were no paw marks!!!!

Oh....oh, hang on, I DO still have paws. Well that's a relief but I'm still fuming about being clean. I AM A DOG and I'm not supposed to smell like a tart's boudoir. AIBU???

My owner just moved her leg. She can see I’m leaning on it! How selfish can a person be? If she’s not careful I’ll jump off the sofa and she’ll be all alone. That’ll teach her!

SingingCat here. I want to go out. Then I want to come back in again. Then I want to repeat this process twenty times this evening.
My human thinks I'm being unreasonable, but I don't see the problem? 😼

Ye silly dogs can be wondering if they are unreasonable, they are the well known self-doubters, nothing without their master. Cats though? No way.
Ours are very confident individuals. I can't ever see them wondering that; in fact they are convinced that they are always reasonable, right and just. Infallible like the Pope if not more so. The younger cat I can see writing to the Labour party and saying that although he wasn't born when they published their Manifesto, now as he came of age, he'd want them to add a clause about taxing pedigree cats. He tried, you see, to be a good friend to our older [pedigree] cat but she in her sheer upper class snobbishness rejected him outright. And now he has a chip on his shoulder.
Older cat is an anarchist. She believes that "deportation is good for the nation" and wonders when her young "friend" is going back to where he came from.

I am most definitely NBU getting Hired up before 6am each morning so that she can watch me sleep until 8am. Nor am I BU planting a biscuit in a corner of the spare bedroom and then insisting Hired opens the door to the bedroom twenty times a day to check it's still there before I decide to eat it.

AIBU to expect my human to get off the sofa & retrieve my 'mousey' which i 'kill' & shove back underneath it 20times an hour. I'm so polite, I mean I tap her leg & look cute til she gets up, muttering darkly about 'FFS, can't even have my drool over Max Branning in peace any more...' Whatever a Max Branning is, it can't possibly be as much fun as my new mousey.

My slave got two bits of chicken from the fridge, I sat staring while the other cat ate his. I then went to check the empty space where his chicken had been and he then went and ate mine. My owner told me I was too stupid for my own good and laughed in my face. AIBU to think this is emotional abuse.

Cat 2

The slaves got their big box of goodies from Zooplus earlier. The food and heat mat are grudgingly appreciated but the big box is the best bit. The young slave left it open on the livingroom floor for me, I jumped in and out and had a great time. The mean old slave muttered about the fucking box getting in the way and that it was getting shredded and put in the recycling tomorrow. AIBU to think she is ruining my life?

I like to sit next to or on top of my human mother and watch her while she sleeps. I sometimes get overcome with love and start dribbling. If she sleeps with her mouth open what does she expect but that I will dribble into her open gob. I can hear her now screeching about filthy cats and making retching noises in the room with the white raised up litter tray.

I'm confused, I think I have two lady owners!
Yesterday my lady owner went upstairs with purple hair and then a couple of hours later, a woman who looks, smells and dressed exactly the same, came downstairs with blonde hair!!
Is she an imposter? What's she done with my proper owner?
I've even been upstairs and had a good look for her and she's nowhere to be seen!
The blonde haired one laughed at me and asked me if I liked her holiday hair. What is she on about? Has she sent my purple haired owner on holiday or something?
I asked my beloved Sam 🐕💘 next door and he didn't know either, but he says that his woman owner sometimes has a head transplant too.
AIBU to ask my owner to stop transplanting her head and confusing me?

I’ve been asking to go out all morning, I’ve been waiting by the door as much as possible, but my meanie owner decided to go out. She says I’m not allowed out when she’s not here, something about a road and not being able to get back in? Then she selfishly went out and left us on our own to stare longingly at the sunny garden with no way to get to it. I was very sad.

She’s just come home and opened the door for me. She thinks I’m the unreasonable one for just sitting in the door way and not actually going out! I wish she’d make up her mind!

have to have tablets every day and my human always puts them in pate, can't i have some mackerel fillet or salmon for a change, going to ring up Dogline ,see what they say

AIBU to think that my human isn't fun anymore. Human mum used to take me for long walks on the hills, we'd run together and she was great fun at playing fetch with me. She'd even play with me on the floor and I could curl up on her and have cuddles.
Now she's rubbish. We walk at snail pace, she doesn't chase me as much and now instead of playing fetch and tug I've got to have one of those ball throwers. Cuddles aren't the same either because there's a bump from her belly that stops me getting comfy.
So I lie next to her and snuggle in but I'd really quite like things to go back to normal.

UPDATE

I sat on the stairs for most of the afternoon, meowing every now and again so she knows I’m still here. She’s only gone and shut the back door again! She said something about doing the school run or something? I went and sat by the door again to show her I’m not interested in her excuses. I even tried to get past her when she went to empty the litter tray but she wasn’t having any of it! She says I’ve had all afternoon to go out if I wanted to but I didn’t. I didn’t want to then though did I? Stupid woman. So selfish.

My minder bought me tuna today! Was aibu to meow at her until she put it down in front of me?

It’s Friday so the weekend tomorrow. Mummy will be able to play with us all day, and stroke us until we nearly burst with purring, and give us Dreamies on the hour every hour, and watch us in the garden, and give us lots of cuddles, and kisses, and it’s all going to be just too too fabulous for words.

So today I went on a nice car ride and met some nice new people, but then so suddenly went woozy and woke up a while later with no balls! AIBU or is this abuse? I may have to rethink my cuddle strategy!

My owner is a mardy bugger.
I had an hour to kill while my owner went to the dentist.
An hour is a long time for a dog right? So even though she had left me a new chewy toy, I thought her Kindle, glasses and slippers were a better option, so I was chewing merrily away when she returned.
I've now been shouted at, smacked and confined to the kitchen!
AIBU to think that if she didn't want me to chew them, then she shouldn't have left them in temptations way?
I've tried to say sorry, but she keeps saying go away and pushing me back. 😭

It rained today. It rained heavy. So I told that rain exactly what I thought of it from the safety of the window seat. That'll show the stupid rain... Stupid clouds raining and being all watery. (Grumbles to self because mardy owner didn't see why this was such a big issue)
