#2 isn't ALWAYS bad...

Tiki, I really appreciate that you use the litter box every time. Housebreaking can be time consuming and you picked it up really quickly. Now if you can just aim your business end INTO the cat box instead of out into the rest of the room while you piss? Waking up to the gentle stream of you defiling the house is not exactly my favorite thing in the world.

Try a top entry litterbox. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/IRIS-USA-Square-Large-Litter/dp/B08W8D7RB5

My cat took to it immediately and it completely stopped my problems with this kind of thing.

There's a fair few creative solutions for cats that don't quite grasp the point of a litterbox. I remember there was a custom job for Butterscotch made from cutting an entrance out of a large plastic tub.

Flynn you little poo poo, you could have at least waited until I had time to get the glass succulent planter out of the bag I brought it home in before you got your stupid head stuck in the handle of said bag, panicked, and went on a planter-destroying rampage until the handle broke.

The mess was more manageable than I might have expected but god dammit I wasn't even home for 5 minutes yet

Thanks for eating a six inch hole in the carpet, Nika. It was the first time we left you alone for more than two minutes. I hope you're thinking of the many times we told you to leave it as you uncomfortably pass those carpet fibers.

Getting a Keeshond was such a great idea, but drat you do not need to enact your 200-year-old guard dog schtick in a suburban apartment hearing the delivery man whilst I'm on a call and becoming a ball of fur hurtling towards annihilation at the door. Otherwise, you are manageable Heinz

Freya, you are a dumb dumb sometimes

You decided to fly up the stairs like a missile and ended up smacking your paw there. I saw you stop for about 5 minutes at the top of the stairs outside just whining holding your paw. No I am not giving you the attention, you didn't break it because you started walking on it fine after I ignored you.

This poor guy is a car stupid doesnt know how to hunt kitty who was abandoned by his owners last year and have been in the neighbourhood since. The owners were renting a room from my neighbour, and he did his absolute best to help, but this guy needed just a little more because he is not suited for outdoor life.

Now he's purr sleeping under our couch with the other 3 cats wondering what the hell is going on.

4 cats is too many, but I could not say no after looking into his old soul face.

The sanctioned action is to CHUG


my idiot 15 year old dog decided after her evening pee to impale herself on a metal spike holding a concrete form in place. Fortunately she didn't puncture her abdomen nor sever her femoral artery or damage any nerves but she did tear the inguinal skin up good. That was like 20-30 odd stitches at the emerg clinic. Not a great night! And now I have a doped up dog who is shrugging with the fact that ecollars weren't really made with shorty weird cross breeds in mind. I do like the "under construction" sign on it, very Geocities

I really have no idea what sent her in the opposite direction were were walking like that. Best I can guess is that with her poor hearing and vision something just spooked her. And I should have kept well away from that sidewalk work but the grass between it and the cyclepath is her usual peeing spot and I *thought* I had the leash shorter than that. FML. Poor puppers.

Calm down, Mr. Fritz. You've got a weird red bump on your foot and we have to get to the doctor to get it looked at. But it turns out someone's having a problem in the room and it's going to take them a little bit longer.

Just. Can you please not panic for just a little bit.

Avalon Hill recieved a letter from a scientist with a PhD (who was also an Avalon Hill fan) complaining he couldn't understand the rules.
This... rear end in a top hat... snuck his way through the gate and upstairs even though he knows that upstairs is Off Limits and is the cat's domain.

I got him into the hallway and closed all the upstairs doors so he wouldn't chase/eat the cat and/or cat food.

I figured he was scared of going back down the stairs (very steep, not to code, built before people gave a poo poo about safety).

I put a piece of pepperoni on the stairs to try and lure him down and he snuck down, ate the pepperoni, and then went back upstairs while my back was turned!

TODAY'S GONNA BE A GOOD MOTHERFUCKIN' DAY!!!
I'm currently in the middle of a two week stint of watching over my mom's house while she's on vacation. My job is to keep her garden in good condition and care for her cat, Shakti. To keep things simple for me, I decided to bring my own cat, Huey, even though they've had problems getting along in the past.

It seemed to be going well at first. For the past few days, they managed to pass each other and share a room without causing a fuss. Shakti still wouldn't let him touch her, but at least she wasn't growling and hissing at the first sign that he might move within two feet of her position.

That all changed this morning. I was in the middle of taking a poo poo when Huey pounced on Shakti, which caused her to scream at the top of her lungs and start taking off some of his fur. I had to hastily break them up and put Huey in the guest bedroom where his food, water and litter box were, all while walking with an unwiped rear end. Since this was early in the morning, around the time when I feed the cats and change their water, I figured I might as well do that now. Unfortunately, I was so agitated by the incident that I kept a loose grip on his ceramic water bowl, which fell from my hands and shattered when I stumbled on the way to the bathroom sink.

So now my stupid little boy is spending the rest of the day in time out while Shakti gets to have the living room to herself again. Huey'll be drinking out of a tupperware box for the rest of my stay here.

Left to right: Huey, Shakti, the dearly departed bowl.

hi I'm gus. I know how to sit and stay and come when you call me but if I decide I don't want to I'll give you the grace of a split second of acquiescence before going back to doing whatever I was doing before. I shed a second dog every single day regardless of if you brush me and I howl at the neighbor through the window despite knowing them and seeing them every day. I'm dumb as a post and regularly run headfirst into things because my brain is five seconds lagged behind my body so my reaction time is downright geological

Goose if you want to take a walk so loving bad, you cannot just stop and lay down 15 minutes after we leave, you're too goddamn big for me to carry home like a lapdog and I don't want to be seen by the neighbors as some pet abuser who yanks a dog by the collar through the neighborhood

Wally if you don't want to actually go into the yard when I open the back door then stop scratching at the door for the love of Christ, it's mosquito season I can't just leave it open for you to stare at the scenery you little poo poo.
