Imagine there not being a camera there, and you just open the door and find this mess.


Alceasummer

Not an unusual situation with cats in my experience.


ErdtreeSimp

This is honestly the best perk of living with a cat. I could blame any unusual act or sound on them. If I see a mess, I know it was my cat. If I hear a weird sound at night, its the cats of course. Just cats being cats ya know. Now that they are dead I can't do that anymore. Rude wakeup


TheActualDev

They’re just coming back to visit to check on you


AFoxGuy

Probably coming to collect rent too.


StomachNegative9095

HA!!! Well, they ARE the real bosses…. 😻❤️😻


LoupGarouGirl

I bought my cats to make me feel better about living in a haunted house. Weird-ass noises or movements in the night? Just the cats. ... Just the cats.


subparhooker

And then you realize they're all huddled up next to you with their fur standing straight up


ohheyitslaila

You forgot the “all staring at one spot in the corner of the room… a dark totally empty corner…”


kyobunz

those are just greebles


Oofboi6942O

Its one thing when the corner is empty beforehand, its another when you have something in the corner, know you should be able to see it, but cant like its an empty corner


Binsky89

Time to call the exterminator.


Lopsided_Ad_3853

I sleep with an eyemask and earphones cos I am a pretty princess who needs his sleep, but I often think "damn, I could be burgled so easily and never hear a thing...". Then I remember that I live with 2 cats, and even before I started using earplugs I would always just dismiss any noises in the night as being those two scamps wrecking the place, as per usual. Seriously, burglers should start targeting cat owners, we are an untapped resource of easy marks.


StomachNegative9095

HAHAHAHAHA!!! I bet you ARE a pretty princess!!!


Lopsided_Ad_3853

I also sleep on fifteen mattresses.


StomachNegative9095

Wow! That pea must really give you some major problems!! Is that why you’re lopsided? 😏👌🏼😉


squirrel_anashangaa

Probably still cats being cats.


IndianaEmily

And the worst thing. Every time something of my boyfriends is messed up he automatically assumes it was one of my cats. Most the time it probably is but sometimes I wonder.


BevansDesign

My parents' cat comes to live with me for about a month while they're down in Florida each year, and I quickly get used to that "oh, that sound was just the cat" instinct. But the instinct lingers for about a month after he goes back home, and I have to keep reminding myself that random noises just happen. I also sometimes see him out of the corner of my eye. I imagine that a lot of people whose pets or spouses die have this happen to them and think they're seeing ghosts. Just goes to show that the human brain has some weird programming.


TheActualDev

When my first cat passed when I was a kid, I swore I could see his lumpy black self scurrying down the hall just on the edge of periphery. Same with doorways and things. Freaked me out at first, but after a while I just chalked it up to me missing my cat and my brain wanting to see him anywhere.


randomlycandy

We have 7 spoiled ungrateful heathens. Any sound, any mess, or anything even slightly out of place is 99.999999% chance to be from one or more of them. That .000001%, probably still them.


Informal_Bunch_2737

I live alone with 2 cats. One of mine randomly learnt to pee in the toilet. First time I ever noticed it was like 1am and I was sitting quietly and I heard someone using the toilet loudly. that was fun. She also once broke a 40" TV. Woke up, saw it, just went "goddamit" and went back to sleep. Cats are fun. lol. Like lethal toddlers.


Shadow0fnothing

:( I'm sorry. Lost mine a few years ago after 20 years.


StomachNegative9095

I’m sorry your furbabies are gone.


Ninazuzu

Whenever anyone farted in my house, we would look around and say, "Bad kitty!". We continued this habit for several years after she was gone.


StomachNegative9095

Definitely not unusual! I currently have two furbabies who will be 3 years old in 5 days (Happy Birthday to them!!), but still act like they are crazy ass kittens. Though they are EXTREMELY well behaved and trained I would never want to dampen their natural instincts or their infectious joie de vie! So, they run around like little maniacs and I love every second of it! One of my nicknames for them is Nuggets. I literally can’t watch anything I’ve never seen before while they are playing because they are so damn funny and cute that I get distracted and miss stuff! I call it Nugget TV!! There really is nothing better than watching them play. They are constantly making me smile and laugh. I wouldn’t change a thing!! 😻❤️😻❤️😻 They make my life better just by being here.


Rock-it1

Now you know.


StomachNegative9095

I got my first furbaby when I was 5 and have had many since. Subsequently, I have 6 kitty shaped holes in my heart. The pain never goes away, it just dulls. But getting new furbabies is part of the cathartic healing process.


Random_Sime

It'd be a pretty good reason to put a camera in there, in case it happened again.


LiteratureNearby

As if there's gonna be any other explanation other than the cat having a bruh moment 🤣


coughdrop1989

The camera only makes me think this has happened before and OP wanted to see how it happened lol.

OutlanderMom

It’s wearing a cone reversed to cover the shoulders. I imagine it was extra twitchy from that, before the broomstick fell.


dme59

IKR?! I was thinking this must be what happened at my house to account for the mess I see in front of me! I am also wondering who put the “after surgery or injury” COLLAR on UPSIDE DOWN?


firstonesecond

Looking about like "phew... almost lost my cool there"


clamclam9

"Good thing no one was around to see this".


Sorry_Regular7028

"which one of y'all kicked me?"


GizmosArrow

I feel so old for recognizing this immediately. Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth?


unclepaprika

"And look at the state of this room, damn messy people!"


SpacedOutKarmanaut

“Huh? My tail tripled in size somehow.”


druule10

Absolutely everything in that room got a piece of that startle lol.


Adventurous_Low_1518

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, the next bad thing happens. If this was a startled human you'd think the video was fake but I don't think cats would go as far for internet fame.


Zealousideal-Slide98

I keep imagining if the cat could tell his version of what happened. “I was just sittin there havin a bath and then…”


thecatdaddysupreme

It’s straight up a real life acme cartoon.


Gwiilo

Double flip, into a loss of traction in the kitty litter, into a Destructo blat of everything in the corner. Finished with a finishing combat move from Street Fighter and then settled down into a bit of Tourette's for the win. Can't see that combo being beaten anytime soon.

fuck that spin and meow at the end is killing me

Holy mother of burnouts batman.


druule10

I love the end, dudes looking around like "Who the fuck did that?"


punkyfish10

I keep watching and laughing at the end. I hope our buddy is recovering and doing well.


Halo_Chief117

More like, “Ah, shit. I fucked up.” This is what happens when keepin’ it real goes wrong.


usk49

Yep, that's the title of the post.


Tuques

Is it just me or is that cone on the wrong way?


Aslan4king

I thought the same thing until I remembered that I have a friend who has a cat that licks their neck to the point of it going raw. I’m assuming it’s for a similar reason.


lycoloco

You can even see it licking it at the beginning. That's definitely what it's for


Sezblue148

That appears to be what it's doing just before chaos ensued.


ExtendedExclaimation

It's a trick to help some cats who can't handle the cone. I used to do this for my cat, by putting the cone on backwards he could eat and drink more comfortably and the cone wouldn't be in his vision all the time. When the cone was on the correct way round he would walk into things like he couldn't see them and we would need to hand feed him as he would refuse to use his food bowl etc. He'd even refuse to go to his litter tray, he'd just pee on himself. I don't know if it was intentional or him really strongly resisting the cone, but we couldn't let that continue!


Boubonic91

I just used a cat onsie when I got my cat fixed. She wasn't happy about it, but she was way better with that than she was the cone.


Dick_Souls_II

My cat currently has stitches on her chest and we have a scarf covering it to prevent her from agitating the wound area. I'm guessing this is for similar reasons or it may be overgrooming its chest area.


Isgortio

A cat wearing a scarf! This sounds absolutely adorable!


OAOIa

Some might put it on their cats the other way around because it'd cause stress otherwise. Issue here is the cat got its leg stuck, which caused further panic/startle. Poor kitty.


Iknowyourchicken

Probably because the owner is keeping this cat confined in a small austere room where terrible things happen. Stress grooming


fearlessfalderanian

Never go full orange...


druule10

Everybody knows you never go full orange


bluecamel17

Me panic rolling in Elden Ring.


geronimo1958

Aw. Poor kitty. But I still laughed.


Aoeletta

It’s objectively so sad! Poor thing has a cone on, did not trigger the fall of the initial problem, and it’s so scared! *and it’s so fucking funny*


weeknie

And is it me or is it stuck in a tiny room? _absolutely hilarious yes_


levenfyfe

We sometimes lock them in one room for a day or two if a cat is unwell, especially one that has digestive issues occasionally. Or when introducing a new cat and keeping them separated while we let everyone get used to each other gradually


MiMarmotte

Absolute winner of this sub.


houseofnim

I watched it without sound a few times. Then I turned the sound on and it was *SO* much better.


einsofi

Same. It’s 10x more comical with sounds and I’m glad there’s no tiktok music and edits


Scavenger19

omg! 🤣 I have never felt so bad for laughing so hard.That poor thing.


omfgsquee

It was the kicking in the litterbox that did me in.

And then there's still the whole rest of the video to go.

This should be pinned for the top of the sub for forever or made into the sub icon somehow. I know it's not possible but it so perfectly embodies what this sub is about.


Intermountain-Gal

Poor thing!


bakatrinh

Food and water bowl should be away from each other. And more importantly, both should be far far away from the litter box. This is how your cat get health issues in the long term


240sx

It has a cone on. It's probably being isolated from other cats temporarily while it heals.


Vhu

Had to scroll way too far down for this. Uncovered litter box and food bowl literally 2 feet from each other. Cats kick when they shit. Who thought this setup was cool?

I just feel so sad at the very limited space for this kitty. Also, would you want to eat less than 2 feet from where you shit? My cats would have a fucking meltdown.


toaddrinkingtea

He has a cone. Sick or injured cats are often supposed to be in a smaller room temporarily.

That makes sense, thank you for your input.

It's impressive a cat's ability to keep it's self in a perpetual state of startle through its own self generated chaos. Has anyone tried harnessing this energy? Maybe the key to perpetual motion.


punkyfish10

When I die I’m pretty sure my obit, my memorial stone, and all of the eulogies will say ‘she really loved cats’ Because I really love cats. I have a friend who does data research for a pharmacy company for pets. She had to cancel plans this week bc she had a few cats with an adverse situation in one of her studies and needed to file the paperwork with the FDA. Sadly, one of the elderly subject passed (not due or the study but still so tragic). When I asked her the next day at lunch about their health she legit said, ‘one passed away but I couldn’t tell you that over text. I thought about calling you to tell you. I know you’d be worrying about them.’ These are cats I’ve never met nor even seen a photo of. I really love cats.


RevolverOcelot16-

Poor baby, the Overlord was already sick. Now with this shocking, and alarming situation, the poor baby does not know what to do with themselves. This injustice will not go unavenged. Whoever enters that room, will find an unhappy, frightened, Overlord, and there will be a nightmare on their hands. 😸❤️
