When Cats Get Themselves Into Trouble: The Funniest Situations People Had To Rescue Their Cats From

For this week's challenge, we decided to embrace the little-known madness that cat ownership brings into our lives. So, we asked you to tell us about the funniest situations that you've ever had to rescue your cats from.

And no, we're not talking about rescuing a cat as in adopting a cat. No, we're talking about dumb silly kitties getting themselves into trouble and having to be literally saved by their knights in shining armors - i.e. their humans. Like that one cat who kept getting stuck on the roof over and over. And those million other cats who kept getting themselves stuck in window blinds. And the million other silly ways they keep messing up and need rescuing, because cats to do exactly the things they're not allowed to do - that's part of their programming, we're sure of it. And all we can do is sigh with mild exasperation and a whole lot of love and go rescue them from themselves.

Hey, don't get mad. This cat simply did what we all want to do when we see a pizza getting delivered to someone - i.e. run out of the house, jump into the pizza dude's car, and steal said pizza for ourselves. If anything, we should learn from this little guy.

The funniest part of this story, by far, is the fact that the other cat was freaking out about its friend being stuck. There's so much implicit love and hilarity in this story, and it just makes us want to know more of this pair's shenanigans. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
