Today, same as every other day, I had to pick up around 8 spoons because my cats love to take them and drop them on the floor around my house so they can listen to the noise. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I bought a pack of toothpicks. There were 500 of them. When I got home I accidentally dropped the pack. After twenty long minutes of picking them up, I dropped them again. FML
Today, I woke up, got up, and felt something crunchy under my feet. My son thought it would be funny if he spread cat litter all around the house. Used cat litter. FML
Today, I spilled the bowl of cat food I'd just filled. I picked it all up in front of my cat, but he refused to eat any of it. I had to put the food back into the packet and fill the bowl all over again. My cat is a prince. FML
Today, I was getting my cat some canned food. Out of habit I licked the spoon after I had emptied the can only to realize too late what I had done. 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 my cat watched me clean and refill his water bowls, then shoved his fresh-out-of-the-litter-box paw in my glass of water. FML
Today, my roommate finally cleaned her cat's very full litter box. I later found our only good spatula crusted with kitty feces, which she'd left on the kitchen counter for me to find. FML
Today, after a week of working 18-hour days, I finally sat down to eat more than a sandwich. Unfortunately my kitchen has become a mess and I bypassed the clean bowl I'd put on the counter and ate my ice cream out of the cat's dirty food bowl. FML
Today, I came home from work to pet-sit 2 dogs and 3 cats, only to find the dispenser for the cat food empty. I'd filled the dispenser yesterday and thought I'd placed it where the dogs couldn't reach it after I left for work. The Labrador could in fact reach, and a week's worth of cat food is now in her stomach. FML
Today, I once again walked in on my husband eating our cat's food. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Maybe keep your silverware in a drawer?

"… so they can listen to the noise." On the up side, your feline mind-reading abilities are strong AF.

You deserve it for not giving them things to play with and for not putting your silverware in a drawer.

...your cats sound like me playing m-rated games. They do stupid things that the most people don't think would be the highlight of the game for people.

Your cats are just being cats.

ok wow you guys are assuming jerks. I don't play with them? They have a small mountain of toys. One actually plays fetch with me every night before bed, and check shutterstock I take them on walks to the park because they are leash and car trained :p

Cats are like that. Mine used to pull tumblers full of water or tea off the table. She also tries to pull other stuff off the table. She has plenty of toys, some of which she's lost under the furniture, but that doesn't stop her from being a furry wrecking ball.
