Does anyone need a funny story to lighten your load? I need to share it because I’m still laughing (and crying from laughing!)
I have an automatic vaccum that runs every night at 2100. I was already in bed tonight cause I work early at 0530.
I woke up about two hours ago and thought damn, my husband just farted and had horrible beans for dinner, but then realized he was still on a job out of town so that left the cat to be the culprit.
But the cat wasn’t on the bed, nor in the bedroom, so I put on my slippers and opened the bedroom door…
Omg - it stunk to high Heaven of death and dekay and I’m wondering what the heck???
I go downstairs and my automatic vaccum is doing its thing and I’m gagging.
Apparently, not only does it have the ability to change its settings and run over flat floors to carpet, it can pick up a dead mouse and keep on going… spewing the wrath of decaying flesh all through the house 😫🤪🤷♀️
I ran back upstairs to get the barely legit bottle of air freshener and of course it was empty. I’m gagging from the smell trying to figure out how to get rid of it, so I opened windows and turned the ceiling fans to high, which of course then just recirculated the death stench even more before I could get out of the kill zone. So I then ran for the next best option which is my son’s pine scent cologne and ran through the house spraying it … now I still have the stench of dead mouse in my nose and the taste of Pine cologne in my mouth😂🤷♀️
Buyer beware- if you aren’t paying attention to your cat’s catch or your automatic vaccum, you could be me writing about it at midnight! 🤪😱
Lol that is so unfortunate 😄😖
😂🤪 not to mention I was pulling pieces and parts of the dead mouse out of the roller before I just decided to Chuck it all and wait till I can buy a new one - not ever going to reuse that thing!
And maybe program it for daytime operation, to catch any problems sooner. Good you can laugh about it! Thanks
So funny! Thanks for sharing!
Omgoodness - I totally missed this reply - Love love this story - and your cat will probably protect you, your car and your house, and maybe learn to drive the car? 😂🤷♀️
🤣🤣when I first met my husband I had a black cat who had been my best bud for three years. I had found him outside a pet store trying to get in When he was a kitten and adopted him once I advertised and couldn’t find an owner. had moved with him several times and he stayed with me and never took off, I took him riding in my car alot and walked him on a leash in parks. I even took him out on a lake on an air mattress with me with several layers of towels under him and he slept on my waterbed with me. I worked as a zero operator for GTE in my apartment where I lived at one point. I would stand in front of my dresser that had a mirror on top to get my hair and makeup done for work, many times not yet dressed. Since I liked to carry him on my shoulders behind my neck alot, he thought it was OK (numerous times) to launch himself from my bed into my back and dig his claws in to climb to my shoulders. Very painful. I’ve had asthma my entire life and one night, I woke up with a severe attack in the middle of the night, reached for my inhaler and it was empty. I drove myself the three blocks to the hospital in hopes of getting a refill. Next thing I knew, they were sticking needles in my arms and kept me for three days. They said I was in bad shape. They ran allergy tests and cats came back at top of list. I had grown up in such an allergy infested environment and always horrible sickly with cats in the house along with everything else I was allergic to (wood smoke, dust, mold and then the pollens outside) that I had never been tested for cats and we had two indoors. I still kept him as he was my best bud but when I met my husband he sensed that my husband wasn’t a cat person and he snuck out of our new apartment two weeks after we moved in and though I searched for him for months, I never found him.
