Cat rules

I don’t understand how this happened. You go out, you work forty hours a week, you pay the mortgage, and then you come home to a five pound animal that looks at you like you are the help. And the worst part is that you accept it. We let these things walk all over us literally and figuratively. They set these invisible cat rules that we just follow blindly because we are terrified of hurting their feelings or getting clawed in the middle of the night.

It is absolutely pathetic when you think about it. You are a human being with thumbs and a credit score, but you are freezing in bed because the cat decided to sleep on your feet and you are legally not allowed to move. If a person treated you like this, you would change the locks. But because it is a fuzzy little psychopath, we just laugh and take pictures of it. We are living in a hostage situation and stocking the pantry with tuna for our captors. It is embarrassing, but honestly, I would not wake the cat up either.

If you have ever been yelled at for closing a bathroom door or attacked for moving your toes under a blanket, you know the struggle. We have gathered the most relatable stories from owners who have realized that they are not the head of the household anymore. These are the laws of the land when you live with a predator that fits in a shoebox.

The universal nature of these complaints is what makes them so funny. It does not matter what breed or age your pet is, they all seem to have read the same handbook on how to annoy their owners. From the empty bowl drama to the bathroom supervision, these behaviors are clearly hardwired into their DNA to keep us humble and sleep deprived.

If you survived this collection of feline tyranny, you might want to look at other pet humor categories. We recommend checking out animal memes, funny dog posts, and general pet owner humor for more relatable content.
