Things Jerk Cats Do That They Know They Shouldn't Do: ICanHas Edition

Most cats are quite simple - they sleep, they eat, they clean themselves, they have random bursts of energy in the middle of the night that scare the heck out of us every once in a while. Simple. But some cats… some cats are smart. They are little criminal geniuses strutting around our houses, planning and scheming, trying to figure out the best way to cause shenanigans every day. Those cats are jerks. They are. Some cats' actions can be attributed to ignorance, but not smart cats'. When they do something they are not allowed to do, they know what they are doing.

For this week's challenge, because we really wanted some levity and laughs, we asked you guys to tell us about your criminally intelligent cats. And more specifically, we asked you guys to tell us about your jerk cats, the mischief-causing cats - the ones who purposefully do the things that you ask them not to do. Because, listen, despite the hissterics that they cause, we love them, and life would be impurrfect without them.

No, we just love it when this happens. As if it's actually us who are in the wrong. They climb onto the cupboards, they get themselves stuck inside boxes and plastic bags, they try to use the curtain to catch the bug on the ceiling, and then, they yell at us. The audacity - really.

Another one of them. Who would have thought? Clearly, the cords are a snack and not something for you puny silly human to involve yourself in. This cat has decided to educate you, to discipline you, and… we want to say we would have the willpower to stand up to her, but she's too fluffy. It makes our head dizzy. We would do anything to get on her good side and pet her.
