You know what they say about cats and curiosity, but luckily, they have us silly hoomins around to protect them from themselves. Our cats have gotten into more trouble in one year than we have in 30 years, but we also don't have eight spare lives hanging around in our back pocket. The cat corner of the world wide web got together to vent about their silliest stories of cats letting their curiosity take over despite their wellbeing. Don't worry, everyone lives happily ever after and no cats were injured in the making of this post.

We knew that cats can be silly as all heck and extremely derpy, but these courageous cats are taking their daredevil acts to the next level! We had no idea how many cats are not afraid of fire, but after reading this post, we're convinced that almost none of them are. Scroll down and enjoy a quick snack break at work with some ridiculous giggles at how silly cats can be!

    Font - Crafts With Cats · 9 days ago My cat exercises his complete lack of self-preservation by chewing on power cords and other electronics. He had chewed through dozens of phone chargers, but the worst was an industrial fan! I also have to wrap my Christmas tree lights only in the top 2/3 - the first year I had him and had the whole tree wrapped he LITERALLY ATE THE LIGHTBULBS.

    Wow, perhaps this kitty was deficient in Christmas spirit? That must be why he needed to eat all those lightbulbs, he wasn't feeling Christmas-y enough! Can't blame him for wanting to get into the holiday spirit, Christmas only comes once a year.

    Font - dogheartedbones - 9 days ago I once watched my cat try to jump into a mirror thinking it was a window with a sill. I didn't have time to stop her or get out my camera. She was very embarrassed but the mirror stayed on the wall.

    One of our most hilarious stories was watching our dog get so excited to go outside that he ran face first into the glass door that leads outside. He didn't understand what happened, and after that, we installed a dog door.

    Font - Bail-Me-Out 8 days ago My cat got very upset at the mirror once because he thought it was another cat. I heard a pound BANG! And when I looked over I realized he had rammed head first at the mirror to try to attack. Luckily the little moron was alright.

    Font - The_Rural_Banshee 8 days ago . Ditto! My idiot (posted about earlier) walked across the stove but he also, in his younger days, ate a pen cap. $4,000 surgery and hospital stay later, and I feel like I should be able to claim him as a dependent because keeping him alive is a full time job...

    Font - pfmiller0 9 days ago . There was a kitchen fire in an apartment near me a few years back and the prime suspect for the fire was a cat who liked playing with the knobs on the gas stove.

    Font - hobosbindle 9 days ago . No picture was possible, but I had a cat stand over a lit candle. Cat didn't flinch as the fur singed, luckily I lifted the cat before the skin crisped up. Cat was happy to just stand there "it's warm"

    Font - oo-mox83 - 9 days ago They're ridiculous. We can't leave the kitchen for a single second when we've got butter melting. He's swatted it out of the hot pan before. And he'll do it again.

    Font - . Inevitable_Ad_1143 · 8 days ago Totally true story from just this week: co-worker who had taken a multi-week leave to travel with her new husband in his home country returns... Her: what's new with you? Me: well the cats have learned to turn on the gas so we have to take the knobs off the stove when we're not using it so they don't kill us.

    Font - kookiemaster · 9 days ago It would be nsfw ... he ate a corn dog stick he found in the trash, barely chewed. The largest chunk that came out the other end (endoscopic removal wasn't an option) was over 2" long and pointy. No clue how he came out of this unharmed. Same idiot who burned a paw to reach crumbs on a cookie sheet.
