Magic is cross because I had the temerity to catch and release outside the mouse she let loose under the sofa. She's giving me the most withering looks.

I dared to get up and get coffee whilst he was sitting on my lap.

fantasmasgoria1 · 15/10/2021 12:11

Nothing yet. She is sleeping upson a bed so I will give her a fuss and a kiss for a bit too long which will likely annoy her!

@QuestionableMouse we have one allowed out and one not...

Following. Will report back later why Bear is in a mood today.

@Fluffycloudland77

Magic caught a mouse? Snorgmaiden knows how to hunt?

If that’s not a sign of the apocalypse I don’t what is.

Wrong Magic! My Magic is a mighty hunter. Although she likes to let them go in the house, which is a joy...

Cat1, I existed. For her, that is enough to be in trouble as she hates the world. Also, I refused to put the tumble dryer on until there was actual washing in there. She has an electric heater in her bed in the utility room but this was insufficient.
Cat2, his food bowl was too far from his igloo bed in the kitchen so he couldn't lay in bed and eat. He yelled at me till I righted this wrong
Cat3, I refused to open the office door during a call when she was on the outside and wanted to come in and collect Dreamies.

One of them is being a knob because there was food in five of their six dishes but the one he wanted to use at that moment was the empty one

LavenderAskew · 15/10/2021 12:45

Nothing!! Because he thinks I'm marvolous

Truth: I've only seen him for five minutes and during that time I fed him

PhoboPhobia · 15/10/2021 12:56

Took the dog outside for a wee when Dcat was still on the decking washing after breakfast. I am supposed to wait until he has moved from the decking to the shed step. Apparently.

Flufferty · 15/10/2021 12:57

I moved her out of way when she took walked in front of the camera during a Teams meeting.

@Flufferty

Now that is unreasonable. How do you know that she didn't have a substantive contribution to the meeting?

(One of our cats hates my divisional manager and will bellow loudly whenever he hears her voice on my laptop)

beachygirl · 15/10/2021 13:03

My cat is cross because I failed to provide the correct quantity of sprinkles to allow him to eat his fresh pouch of food.

Shehasadiamondinthesky · 15/10/2021 13:08

Went to work, she hates me leaving the house, ever.

IcetSUV · 15/10/2021 13:11

Took her for her vaccination. She actually liked the vet to be fair.

MadameOvary81 · 15/10/2021 13:13

I stopped her eating the delicious ribbon attached to a helium balloon. She still wasn't convinced i had done the right thing when i calmly explained to her that she would far prefer me pulling out of her throat now, than her arse later. I can expect a hairball coughed up on my duvet imminently.

@Pythonista
@Flufferty

I shut my office door as I had an important client meeting and I am fed up with either cat on keyboard in front of camera (dcat1) or shelf escapades and flying paper and books (dcat2)

The result I did a 30 min call with scratching and crying at the door. Now that the meeting has finish and the door is open, 1 has gone upstairs to find a bed to sleep in, and 2 has gone in the garden to torment next doors dog.

By 3pm the will be demanding their dinner which they get at 6

YetAnotherSpartacus · 15/10/2021 13:44

She actually liked the vet to be fai

Did the vet taste like chicken, then?

Bad Cat Mommy let door close on his tail.
I said sorry. We're BFFs again.

Owlink · 15/10/2021 13:49

I have on a new, long-sleeved vest. How dare ?!

ChristinaMarlowe · 15/10/2021 13:49

Double strike here.

  1. Rudely allowed a builder to knock down an interior wall (nothing exciting, old barn vs damp!) making a lot of noise and being scary
  1. Audacity to allow said builder to close hole with bin bags and staples thus preventing the absolutely necessary sniffing, digging and disappearing to investigate inside wall cavity.

He's made it clear I have offended and insulted him beyond all reasonable doubt. Sorry puss.

1984Winston · 15/10/2021 13:54

Multiple things, cut their nails, medicated one of them, moved them off my lap, I'm a terrible owner

secretbookcase · 15/10/2021 13:57

Refused him a third breakfast. He sat in front of me swiping things off the table and pointing his paw to the door where the food was. Stand off.

I also did the appalling thing of letting him in when he cried to be let in. He was disgusted!

TokyoSushi · 15/10/2021 13:59

We forgot his birthday, although it's not until Monday and we've remembered now but he's been livid all morning.

Toddlerteaplease · 15/10/2021 14:05

@ProcrastinationIsMySuperPower my magic is definitely not a mighty hunter. She couldn't catch a cold. Cheddar did catch a bird once though. I almost fell over!
