40 Tales Of Cats Being Absolute Hooligans, As Shared By Netizens

Triggered the SimpliSafe and police came , jerk didn’t apologize.

My husbands cat has chewed through a many cords, his favorite has been his brand new PS VR headset.

No monetary value but certainly a huge clean up and another cat was injured. One of my cats decided to leap over my laptop. A cup was behind that laptop and shattered on the floor. Another cat stepped on the broken glass and there was bloody footprints across the whole house before I could react. Thankfully didn't require a vet visit, but it was a significant cleanup. I hope she apologised to her sister.

My void reached up and began playing with the stove knobs. Turned the burner on and set a box of soup mix on fire at midnight. Thank the gods I was awake and heard the gas still clicking over (the flame was HUGE when I got down there) and bolted downstairs to the kitchen before the house went up in flames.

They now sleep locked in my bedroom with me and I make sure to never have knobs attached. They get out in a drawer when not in use.

This guy started a fire in his quest to get to the cat treats.

The most destructive thing any cat ever done in my life was chew the lamp cord. Over and over, I said “NO” and even covered the cords.

One day when I was out of the house, my Baby Boy chewed the cord again.

He didn’t live long enough to be apologetic. I miss him and cry for him almost every day, 20+ years later. I’ve never cared one bit about anything they broke.

My cat knocked down all the contents of our kitchen top that were in his reach and caused chaos in the kitchen. In the same sitting he also ripped open a packet of his cat food and it spilt everywhere. He will do it again!

My cats didn’t care. One has a major attitude and the other one is dumb as a rock (we love her though). They destroyed my couch.

After I had my son, my Filthy Queen decided that she needed to "help" me during pumping time. She ate through 4 sets of breast pump tubing in 3 days. By the time I was done, I had one functional set left and she was to be in a separate room from me as to leave the dang hoses alone.

I have a tall vintage lamp there’s several kinds of lights all with a lot of glass. It’s a nice piece well it was. Two of my four b**t heads were chasing each other playing I was in the bedroom talking to my fiancé and heard crash. He checked it out and glass was everywhere they knocked it over and it shattered. I had to wrangle the beasts cause they kept wandering where the glass was and my fiancé cleaned up the glass. So much for my cool lamp.

I had a cat who was a very adventurous, rambunctious kitten. She had a never ending well of energy. My mom was painting some new furniture she’d gotten, and the spray paint can was left out in the living room. Well, Miss Missy (one of her many nicknames) was heard running around, then she suddenly jetted away like a lightning bolt, and there was a loud hissing noise. She had knocked the can down and broke it, so the paint was spraying out as the pressure was being relieved. She had very avant-garde taste lol.

Not destructive, but hilarious: my boy Romulus, whose personality greatly takes after Miss Missy above, was a stray we took in during COVID. I had just moved back in with my mom for a few months, as I’d been laid off, so we glommed onto each other. Anyway, my job called me back in the spring of 21. The Sunday after my first week back, I was taking a shower before bed, and I’d put my glasses on the counter like I always do. About midway through, I heard him push the door open, saunter in, and jump up on the counter. Something hard and made of plastic hit the floor, followed by the sound of him thudding down onto the floor, and digging furiously in his litter box for about a minute. When I got out, my glasses were nowhere to be found, and I was freaking out. Both my mom and I searched every inch of the bathroom and did not find them. The thought occurred to me that Romulus might have had something to do with it, but I thought, ‘no, even for *him,* that’s too weird!’ But after we both searched, I told my mom my theory, and she took one for the team and checked his litter box. She walked out, glasses in hand, barely controlling her shock and laughter. She thoroughly disinfected them and all was well. Poor little boy was having separation anxiety! After all, he was still a little baby!

Paint all over my hardwood floors. I take partial blame. 🙄.

Not very destructive, but one of the ONLY things he's ever broken is my favorite hand made ceramic mug that he knocked off of the counter. It's been five years and I still can't forgive him..

One cat ruined my record collection. Another chomped the corner of a monitor so hard she broke it.

My cat isn’t really destructive. i can’t remember her ever breaking or severely damaging anything. she can’t jump for s**t so it’s very easy to keep things out of reach and she doesn’t typically knock stuff over anyways. she does love to chew on plastic though and she is never sorry about it. she’ll chew anything plastic she can get to, especially if she wants food or attention.

the criminal in question:

the crime: chewed up another bag of my floss picks (gross!).

Mine left a huge scar on my face. It was partly my fault as well . I should have been careful.

The stray I was caring for had been getting ready to run after and attack the neighbors cat and I stupidly interfered by grabbing the stray and he latched onto my arm and bit and clawed it. He didn't thrash around but he was glued to me.

I very calmly said his name and he let go. I ran to wash it out and asses the damage. And wrapped it up and went back to him where he sat at my side and rubbed his head on my arm and licked my hand.

He definitely apologized for it. If I had tried to grab him off of me or yelled or screamed it could have been worse. He hasn't done it again thankfully.

My one cats pees on anything soft that is on the floor - or my bed. Or a shelf. Clean clothes and blanket are his favorite thing to pee on. I wish I knew why he does this. He shows no signs of being sick and I’ve changed the type of litter plus the boxes.
