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

My toast popped up while he was inspecting the spices and frightened him.

He's gone out in a huff!

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.

IrenetheQuaint · 29/03/2021 09:45

Nothing yet this morning, but she was outraged yesterday evening by me doing my ironing rather than sitting on the sofa, thus preventing her lying on my lap.

FlatCheese · 29/03/2021 09:45

I did the school run, leaving him alone. Except for DH and our other DCat. He was practically abandoned for nearly an hour.

My failure to sort out the wind and rain is todays evidence of my incompetence as an owner.

hilariousnamehere · 29/03/2021 09:59

I woke up, depriving her of the ability to snooze in the curve of my legs for another few hours. Awful owner behaviour 🤣

Lotsachocolateplease · 29/03/2021 09:59

Nothing yet but I’m about to hoover.....

Strangekindofwoman · 29/03/2021 10:01

I got up an hour later than usual. He made his feelings known.

TroysMammy · 29/03/2021 10:02

By not making the rain stop. If he thinks I'm going to walk with him on a tour of the neighbourhood holding an umbrella over him he is sadly mistaken.

Toddlerteaplease · 29/03/2021 10:04

Nothing yet, but I'm going to have to move my arm, that Cheddar has coiled her self round! My two are very placid and not easily upset.

Tocktickclick · 29/03/2021 10:08

I have the day off work, and she's wondering why I'm not in the office (dining room) keeping her company as usual.
Cat 2 is pissed off with me because I'm not hand feeding him raw meat, but instead filled his bowl with cat food and a couple of dreamies which he's turned his nose up at.

triplechoc · 29/03/2021 10:08

The bin men came, the washer is spinning AND I hoovered. He’s sulking upstairs at the cruelty of it all.

HarleyQuinn21 · 29/03/2021 10:10

All of mine are pissed off every day because I had a baby 8 weeks ago

@TroysMammy

But you thought about it, so he's getting there with the emotional blackmail.
Fluffycloudland77 · 29/03/2021 10:33

So much abuse and it’s not even time for elevenses.

LookToTreblesGoingTreblesGone · 29/03/2021 10:36

I've put a different brand of biscuits in her bowl, and they're clearly inferior, if how she's just sitting and staring at them is anything to go by.

JorisBonson · 29/03/2021 10:40

It's windy which is quite obviously my fault. Boy cat has been flying back in through the cat flap and shouting at me.

@triplechoc I also manifested bin men and girl cat is unhappy.

PiggyPlumPie · 29/03/2021 10:41

@IrenetheQuaint mine settles down and goes to sleep on the ironing board whenever I get it out!

Tocktickclick · 29/03/2021 10:41

My cat will only eat different biscuits @LookToTreblesGoingTreblesGone
He must have different flavours every day. Sometimes I have the absolute gall to give him biscuits from a box that is already open 😿

PurplePansy05 · 29/03/2021 10:44

We bought a baby crib and she's sulking cause she is not allowed in it and she thought it was a cat crib. How dare we!

TaraR2020 · 29/03/2021 10:44

I put dreamless down in the kitchen rather than taking them out to her in the garden.

She's a princess.

TaraR2020 · 29/03/2021 10:45

*dreamies, obviously

QueenPaw · 29/03/2021 11:56

I wouldn't open the window while the grass was being strimmed. So he was stuck inside for all of 5 minutes
When I opened the window he then refused to go out Confused
Now he won't walk on the grass "feels weird on paws"

KatyMac · 29/03/2021 12:07

I wouldn't let her eat the brown tape from a parcel!

And I am still keeping her inside (waiting for neutering and microchip)

I am a bad slave!

goldpendant · 29/03/2021 12:09

I had to give him an iams pouch as I'm out of felix.
