'Get your paw out of my smoothie!' Most hilarious things people have caught themselves saying to their cats

The experience of cat ownership is unique for everyone, but we can all agree on one thing - living with cats is hilarious.

We did not grow up with cats. We got our first cat when we were teens. And let us tell you, it was a life-changing experience. Whatever we thought cat ownership would be like, it wasn't like that. From the first night, when our itty bitty kitty insisted on climbing into bed with us multiple times in a row, despite us being so scared of turning over and crushing her. Over time, we have learned so many things about what cats were like. We have learned that some cats love sinks for some reason, and follow you into the bathroom. We have learned that cats don't like closed doors - not because they want to use the doors to get in and out of a room, but just for the principle of it. We have learned that, despite the fact that cats don't understand us, cats can be really talkative. And we talk back.

One of the funniest things that we have learned - about ourselves, not our cats - through cat ownership, is that we really do treat our cats like tiny humans. We talk to them like we would to anyone else. The only difference is that we find outselves saying some absoltuely hilarious things to them that we would never say to other people.

“Stop licking the toothbrushes” is one of the most unhinged things that we have ever read. Wow. Everything else, we understand. But that one. Oh, the way that our lives would have turned upside down if we caught our cat doing that. The way that we would start questioning everything. The way that doubt would creep its way straight into our souls, echoing like a whisper in our heads, saying, “What else have you been licking behind our backs?" We don't know if we would come through the other side of this unscathed.

We do try reasoning with them sometimes. We know it won't work. We know that even if they could understand us, they would not listen. They would insist on doing exactly what they were doing, and heck the consequences. That is the beauty of cats. And that is why we love them so much. They are independent creatures with thoughts and desires of their own. It's also funny. Not necessarily what they are doing. But rather listening to ourselves, try to reason with them. Sometimes, we understand the concept of “the crazy cat lady”. And to us, it is absolutely hilarious.
