Our rescue cat was allowed to sleep on the bed when she arrived. She liked to curl up on the pillow right next to your head. And then pee in your hair.

I do like reading about other people's pets and their stories! It really cheers me up!

I grew up with a lot of animals, so what sounded odd in other people's houses were perfectly normal in mine.

We had a rabbit with anger management problems. I was held hostage on top of the rabbit run for offending her by hanging laundry out (later solved by wearing steel toe-capped wellies so that she couldn't attack my legs). She would hump one of the cats if she caught her. It was not a surprise when the cat brought a wild baby rabbit home with her, as if asking if we'd like to swap the adorable one for our angry one. Another had a thing for humping balloons, so birthdays were fun!

That same cat was a terrible hunter. She'd bring pigeons that were bigger than her home, play with and then massacre voles/shrews/mice/a rat in front of the French doors when we had visitors, etc. Live birds in the dining room while on the phone was not unheard of. We would have to keep an eye out and close the windows if we saw her coming with prey. She's also in the habit of hiding under sheets on the banister rail, and frantically attacking anyone who passes. I was on the phone about a job interview when a mouse skidded out from under the sofa, a paw shot out, and pulled the mouse back under.

Dogs... destroying flooring, running amok with knitting (all around the chair legs and everywhere else!), redesigning my mother's dining table legs, having explosive diarrhoea over freshly-cleaned carpets, rolling in fox poo, eating the contents of the muck heap with delight, and I've had to wrestle dead pygmy goat kid (it was stillborn) from one before now.

One that makes me laugh is a dog on his final walk before being PTS cocking his leg and peeing in a picnic basket in the park. His owner was mortified!

They're not pets, but a farmer I knew had fields that backed onto a housing estate. One had new owners, and a cow smashed through their broken fencing, got into the house, pooed all over their sitting room, headed upstairs, tried to turn around, and fell through the banister. The farmer's wife was mortified, but it tickled everyone at the auction mart the following week!

Omg these stories!

We took our young lab to the beach for the first time, she had a glorious time running through the shallows chomping at the waves. Shortly after, but not until we were outside the crowded beach cafe she squatted and proceeded to have prolonged explosive diarrhoea. It went on and on as all the people having their ice cream watched in horror. Being naice people we tried to clear it up. Sent DH into shop to buy some bottles of water. When we poured the water on I realised he’d bought sparkling water and instead of sluicing it cleanly away it fizzed up into mounds of foamy dog shit. At this point our two children ran away and claimed they didn’t know us.

and here he is - how could you not forgive him! (sorry photo is from his last stay in a cattery, i'm not trying to advertise! 😳🤣)

Edited

I used to have a similar raggy boy who was also a massive twat! But I couldn’t help but totally adore him and still miss him. We talk about him and his antics all the time!

Eurgh I woke up to a room filled with feathers floating around like someone had had a pillow fight in there, was actually my cat tearing up a wood pigeon 🤮

teaandtoastwithmarmite · Yesterday 12:17

Brought a live bird in. Wouldn’t let me get to it so she killed and ate it head first. She’s retired now thankfully. Other one has brought a frog in which I managed to rescue but nothing else. Caught a fly and ate that on my bed though lol. Also older cat now has a habit of weeing in places other than her litter tray and decided to sit in the washing basket and do it up the wall the other night

Our cat stole a whole pack of sausages from the neighbours house Blush

IthinkIsawahairbrushbackthere · Yesterday 12:29

My husband's husky (he's ours when he is being adorable but DH's when he's a twat) is a thief and totally food driven. There is neither time nor space to tell of all his misdeeds but the most spectacular was the time he wrecked our oven. We have (had) a double oven. The two ovens had horizontal handles parallel to one another. He frequently opened the bottom oven and stole from it so we took to placing a broom handle through the two handles. One morning I was in the shower and I heard the smashing of glass. I rushed to the kitchen and found he had pulled the broom handle thereby tearing the handle off of the top oven and smashing the glass door.

As there was nothing worthwhile there he opened the fridge, stole the four pints of milk and spread it all over the living room.

Rolled on a dead seal on a beach when we were on a camping trip in the hottest weather ever. Absolutely disgusting.

My lab boy did the same, and also gnawed on a bit of blubber 🤢
Cue visit to the vet, made to vomit it up, then several days of something like Buscopan to push the remainder through his system.

Loved that dog 😍

@Laiste I also have a ragdoll and she eats crinkly plastic! She likes the rip off strips you get on postage bags and envelopes, I can hear her chomping them and many times have had to extract from her throat , I don’t know how she manages to find them

!!!!!
Whyyyy do they do it?!

I forgot to say that we can't use curling ribbon on the xmas presents under the tree any more because he literally eats it. As fast as he can! We tried to keep the presents upside down so that the bows and curls were hidden from him but he learned to turn them over 😳

That year we had the pleasure of gently pulling a bit of it out of his actual hole bum because he was walking round with it sticking out 🤮

Our Labrador swallowed the neighbour’s budgie alive.

For a while we had an extremely food-driven foster cat living with us. The outside of my kitchen door will never be the same again - it looks like a family of tiger cubs has had a go at it.

My dog ate a litter of kittens 🤢😭

I really struggled for a long time.

I wish I hadn’t read that.

Toasty Boy Cat brought us a live squirrel.

Myremoteislost · Yesterday 14:16

He ate 5 doughnuts from the counter. I had had an absolutely awful day and really needed those doughnuts to cheer me up. I ended up with no doughnuts, a hyper dog and a beastly shit to clean up the next morning!

Decided to poo on the floor - when the robot vacuum was out 🥲

giddyboo · Yesterday 14:44

When he was a 18 week old pup. Shat on the floor and then peed ,made a shit paste and put it up the dining room walls. Knocked all the pictures off the walls,ripped up the sofa , cushions mixed them into the shit paste. We were only gone just over an hour. We had done all the leaving them for 5 mins then 10 etc. We bought a dog crate that day. He lived for 12 years and we had to have a dog sitter if we were longer than 4 hours and no one was home. Loved him to bits though.

Dahliasrule · Yesterday 14:51

Our cat decided to christen our new bad and mattress by peeing on it.
Our Yorkie, no longer with us, when nervous or excited would pee. Her pièce de résistance was jumping up on a guests lap and peeing!

Having lived happily together for 20ish years, one of them attacked his brother and ate some of his toes. £200 later they have separate tanks.

My dog chewed 3 pairs of prescription glasses in one week, the replacement cost was well over £1k 14 years ago. When I found the last pair he had a go at I cried.

CherryKerry · Yesterday 14:56

Dog ripped up the carpet and dug a hole straight down through the floorboards into the foundations of our holiday home (was originally Grandparents house before they died). Only left dog for an hour to pop out to the supermarket 🙈.

My parents got back before I did, as I popped to a few more shops, and by the time I got back my Dad was replacing the floor boards and Mum was giving the dogs lots of treats as dog had inadvertently alerted my parents to the fact the floorboards were rotten and could have collapsed at any second.

And, cat broke into the fridge and dragged out the leftovers from a leg of lamb. Dog, noted above, got the blame as she looked so guilty whist cat was giving no f's. Wasn't until after dog died we realised it was the cat who kept breaking into the fridge 😳.

Murdered dd's guinea pig right in front of my dd's very sensitive friend. She didn't come round again. Dog was very proud of herself though 🤦🏻‍♀️
