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

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!!!

Do any of your cats so the innocence thing then?

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.

😂 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 🤣🤣

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

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

northernlightnights · 01/09/2025 06:51

I just knew this thread was going to be about a tabby - it’s always the tabby’s IME 😂

@OakleyStreetisnotinChelsea our many moons departed stray who came to us Siamese used to be sick occasionally on the kitchen floor . Cold cat sick between toes is not nice 🤢

Goofles · 01/09/2025 07:20

All I will say is it’s incredible how much floor space a squirrel, pigeon, rat, mouse, bat, frog, squirrel or chick from egg will cover once some or all of their skin has been removed.. and if cat hears us coming, she stops what she’s doing and pretends she’s been quietly staring out the patio doors like a Victorian poet looking for inspiration in the dark night. We round the corner and it’s like a scene from The Sculptress. So that is now her name.

Mine is an elegant thing of beauty and grace.

Thankfully the Cat is fairly normal. It’s the dog that’s a complete dickhead. This morning she got hold of a used sanitary towel and ran round the garden like an absolute loon before eating the flaming thing 🤢

Speechless-but also I did have a Labrador that would have done the same, given half a chance.

They had a couple, there's another where all the cats with thumbs kidnap all the milkman.

PlacidPenelope · 01/09/2025 09:45

I'll have a look for them! Thanks Sideshow.

I had 2 and neither were thick and nuts... One prim, proper and elegant, one too clever we think he might have been a person in his previous life. Then we got a third and there we go. Collection complete. We call him "the idiot son". Lucky for him he's pretty!

He was beautiful. Maybe if I get a 3rd ill get the genius and complete the set

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.

So well put ... and then we consider ourselves honoured when they sit on us and purr like the furry emotional terrorists they are

My cat has very dexterous paws and can open things....if he wants too.
I've just bought him a stimulation toy that has flaps that he has to lift to get some biscuits.
Now I know that he's perfectly capable of lifting the little flaps and moving a slider to get the treats but he's refusing to.
I know that he can lift the flaps because he's a devil for getting into the neighbours food waste bins if they're not locked and will come home with all sorts of tasty food treats like half a pizza. He knows how to lift things with a paw, nose or his head so I thought that something that would make him work for his food but nope he won't touch it.
He can smell the Dreamies but is refusing to engage because the toy is.....yellow
