Today, I learned that our cats love to knock over glasses and cups, particularly if they have liquid in them. The latest victim of their antics? My expensive computer keyboard. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my cat decided to use my keyboard as a scratching post, and now my computer won't work. FML
Today, I learned that as adorable as it might be to watch your cat follow your cursor around the screen, the humor ends when she dives into and breaks the monitor. FML
Today, my cats decided to start sprinting back and forth across the house while I was holding a cup of coffee. They both ran into each of my legs in unison, sending me crashing down on top of them. I also hit my head on the corner of a shelf and spilled coffee all over my neck, in addition to breaking the cup. FML
Today, I made myself a perfect latte and sat down at my desk, feeling pretty good about my day so far. My cat then jumped on the desk, slipped, and kicked my mug directly into my keyboard. The cat looked me confused while coffee seeped into my laptop. It was only 9:02 AM. FML
Today, I mopped all the floors in my house. When I was finally done, I accidentally knocked over an open bottle of soda. My cats took this as a perfect opportunity to chase each other around, step in the soda, and track sticky paw prints everywhere. FML
Today, I sat down at my computer for the first time in a week, and discovered that my cat had thrown up all over my keyboard. I needed to write up an important document but the chunks were stuck down in the keys, effectively locking it up and making it useless. FML
Today, I woke up to find that my cat had barfed all over my laptop's keyboard and screen, filling each nook and cranny of the stuff. As if that wasn't bad enough, when I went to make coffee to deal with the stress, I found that I was out of coffee. FML
Today, our cats got in a serious fight about the rights to some prime mousing territory. The territory in question? Our kitchen. FML
Today, I caught one of my cats drinking my coffee again. Seems like I'll have to buy one of those mugs with a ceramic lid. FML
Today, I was reading on my couch when I noticed my cat trying to escape out of an open window. I leapt up to stop her, but in my panic, I tripped over a coffee table leg, slammed my face into a wall, and knocked over a guitar. My cat, meanwhile, just sauntered down, and went off to the kitchen. FML

Those cats are so clever that they placed liquid-filled cups adjacent to your expensive keyboard? That's brilliant! If some human were to set the cups there, well, that would be just idiotic.

Knocking things over is a sign that the cat is bored. You may want to get some toys for it or something to keep it entertained

I was at the computer at the time. The few times I spilled, my keyboard walked out fine. I got overconfident.

Sometimes even having lots of toys doesn't keep cats from getting up to mischief. My cat used to like pulling over cups and glasses, even when she had toys. She's matured out of that, thank goodness.

You deserve it for having liquid near your expensive keyboard. You set yourself up for that headache when you said that your cats like to knock things over with liquids in them.

This is a thing that ALL cats do. They're curious and mischievous. Whether it's your phone into the toilet or a cup of juice all over your console. They do it to see what happens. Talking from experience here.

omg I would have died look on the bright side, you hopefully learned your lesson and it was not your computer.

OP here. It was my computer, and it was just the keyboard. Every time I accidentally spilled liquid on it, it didn't malfunction. It's mechanism failed this time.

Welcome to Earth. This is a cat. They like to knock things over.

Maybe try cups with lids on?
