Animals: Today, I checked over the pictures on my night-cam to see if...

Today, I checked over the pictures on my night-cam to see if my cats are really going on our kitchen counters. As soon as I'd seen the first picture, I realized that this whole time my cats haven't been going on it. It was a rat. FML

Ratatouille

Today, after my house almost got broken into last week, when I heard some noises in the kitchen I went to investigate. I saw a huge rat run across my floor, and nearly peed myself thinking it was an intruder. FML

Today, I found out that both of my cats are afraid of mice. So far I've seen them run and hide from 3 different mice who've recently invaded my apartment. FML

Haunted house

Today, I jumped when, after being home alone for days, I suddenly saw the door handle move. Apparently, the cats weren't happy about being locked out of the kitchen and were pretty close to figuring things out. FML

Today, our rodent problem was taken care of. I discovered this when my cat projectile-vomited a soggy, death-scented wad of dark fur and tiny organs onto the couch. FML

Today I opened the door for my cat and he brought in a rat with him. Now the rat is hiding in my house. FML

Gourmet dinner

Today, after feeding my cats, I walked out of the room. Five minutes later, I heard one of them making a hacking sound. Knowing the outcome, I went to get some paper towels to wipe up the mess. When I went in, my other cat was eating it. Certain things cannot be unseen. FML

Today, I discovered that catching fewer mice in the traps I'd put out doesn't mean my pest problem is getting resolved. It means that rats have moved in. FML

Today, I saw a pair of eyes looking at me from my closet. Realizing it must be my cat, I called her. She immediately came out from under my bed. I can't find anything in my closet. FML

That was your karma letting you know you should never blame cats.

Cats are supposed to eat mice, not let them crawl on your counters.

RATS ARE ******* ADORABLE. Go onto Deviantart.com and type in ratties, or rats in the search bar. YOUR MIND WILL BE ******* CHANGED FOREVER.

Hey, I love rats. I've had my share of them for pets... But wild rats are a bit different. Unless they're still babies, then you can probably domesticate them :)

Not all cats are good at catching rodents. You basically have to train them when they are young to be good hunters.

Um...you keep cameras in your kitchen? If this is for broad home security purposes, I can understand - but if you put up the cams to specifically spy on your cats, it's make you look rather idiotic. Sure, you can train your cats not to be on the counters during the day, but once you're asleep...they're cats. They'll do whatever the hell they want to do. What are you going to do, sit on the counter with a spray bottle all night and wait for them? (And yes, having a wild rat in your house sucks, but that's beside the point.)
