I read the funniest thread today, titled "how daft is your husband". After reading it out loud to my DH we POSL. Then our cat did something dumb. DH suggested a "how dumb is your pet" thread, in honour of her and today's thread.
So here goes:
Our cat, Nemo, has
- fallen in the bath. I was in it at the time. While she no doubt suffered emotional trauma in her near-drowning incident, I will bear the scars on my legs from her frantically-whirling claws for the rest of my life.
- has set her tail on fire, jumping on the coffee table and walking past a lit candle
-fallen off the divider between the kitchen and the stairs going down to the basement. Open-concept kitchen. Partition around edge of kitchen, which backs onto stairs. Good place to put decorative items such as trailing plants. Not a good place for a cat to jump up on, especially one that does not have good balance. We look over the divider - cat stares up from halfway down the stairs... picks herself up, starts washing herself, pretending she meant to take the elevator down.
- has knocked over a lit candle, managing not to set tail on fire this time, but spilled candle wax all over self. Self having lovely, long fur... self needing to be shaved to get rid of candle wax. Cue very stupid looking cat.
Your turn.
