I didn't grow up in a cat family; my childhood pets were just dogs. Up until only very recently, my only experience with cats had been at my friend's house, whose cats were neurotic and ran away from everyone all the time. Okay, pretty neutral feeling toward cats at that point.
Which is why I didn't mind too much when my roommate I just moved in recently with had a cat - I figured he would just run away from me like my friend's. Unfortunately, it was this naive notion that led to me cleaning cat shit off my shower curtain after putting on band-aids all over my right forearm a few minutes ago. To make a short story even shorter, the cat decided to simply ignore his litterbox and come take a crap on my shower curtain whilst I was playing UT, and then dance around or something until I went in there to see what the terrible smell was coming from. Of course, when I picked him up I apparently disturbed his demon-summoning ritual, so he clawed the crap out of whatever he could reach as I flung him into the hallway and slammed the door, so I had to anti-biotic (what if he stepped in it!? x_x) and band-aid my arm while holding back gagging from this terribly potent little demonic sacrifice.
Then I had the distinct pleasure of feeling the heat coming through the toilet paper as I picked it up (x_x) and threw it in the toilet, but since my toilet sucks it got clogged on it, so I got to fix that as well after I Lysol'd the floor. The whole time that son of a bitch was out in the hallway, and I swear those meows were some kind of demented laughter, because I could hear them all the way in my bathroom through a closed door. I couldn't even smack the bastard because my roommate would go nuts.
I hate cats.
Anyway, to keep this from just being a rant thread, what terrible experiences have you had with cats? I thought all the horror stories were exaggerated before, but now I know better. Worst story gets community sympathy.
P.S. - No smilies, my five step program is working!
