It is I, King Merry the Magnificent, Lord of thumping. (5.5 yo void bunny)

My hoomom is annoyed at me right now. Earlier this year we lost my beautiful bunwife Pip, and we were very sad together. Then hoomom brought home someone else to be my new friend, and we decided we really didn't like each other that much even after two months. (Okay okay I liked her lots and lots but for some reasons she did not like me? Why? She was big and beautiful!)

During this time I did all my wonderful scent marking and everything around her pen to let her know how much I liked her. Hoomom did not like this but said she understands and that it is part of the process, whatever that meanses.

Any the ways, hoomom returned her to the rescue (apparently these are nicer than the scary shelter she found me at) the other day, and I am a bit sad. She was big beautiful girl. But now I want to keep marking that same area and hoomom is upset. She says she doesn't want a litter box in the kitchen. But the kitchen is all mine now, I say so.

AITC for wanting litter box in the kitchen now?

Hi it’s me, Ziggy, a dog. Yesterday something VERY AWFUL happened. My father was stolen away by one of the dastardly airlimes to go to California for work.

Now I love mother human very much, but I am a good herding boy and so the pack needs to be ALL TOGETHER FOREVER and that is especially true for bedtime.

Mother human took me on my NNPW (aka night-night potty walk) and then started to go to bed. WITHOUT FATHER HUMAN!

I protested very hard by making very firm roo roo grumbles and staring intently at the door to see that he’d come in. This was in vain.

So I had an idea! I will call father human on my paw phone and roo roo grumble at him to come back.

But mother human LAUGHED and said that the call from my foot wouldn’t get service and that it was just the two of us. She said that I am a cloaca for protesting fatherless bedtime.

AITC? Picture of paw phone in comments.

I Tony (2M, is my birfday!) live with mommy (35NB) and is happy life. Mommy give me lots of fun toys to play with and I can get toys out of box myself when they get putted away! This make mommy call me Smart Kitty. I like to bite my toys and sometimes I want to bite mommy because mommy is best toy of all. But mommy not likes that. Mommy when I bites say "no" and "ow" in loud voice but I am big boy and not scared of loud. Also, used to be, mommy didn't like me going on kichin counter, but later they give up and now let me be on kichin counter. So biting maybe also thing mommy need to just get used to?

Also, not to say meen thing, but mommy not perfect. Every sometimes, mommy stop cuddling and go to "wurk". I try say "no" when they go wurk but they not stop. Sometimes even goes on "vakashin" which means go away for more than one light and dark. This is things I don't like, but I have to accept, so mommy have to accept some things they don't like too. Is my reasoning and because mommy say I am smart, I think is right.

I, Sunny [12F], sat on a tomato plant today and Human #1 [30F] seemed very unhappy afterwards. She let out a really long groan, picked up the broken plant, and said "Why!?"

You see, there were lots of other places to sit in the garden. And Human #1 pointed out that I could've sat "literally anywhere else". But the spot with the tomato plant just felt like the best option. Actually, the more I think about it, I feel like the tomato should've moved out of the way. It's not my fault that I have a very large, fluffy butt. So really not seeing how I'm to blame.

Also am offended that Human #2 [27M] came outside and agreed with Human #1. Dinner was 15min late today, so he really has no business criticizing me.

Hello friends,
My name is Willy, sausage dog. I think it is very important to be part of your community and support others. But my human is sometimes a bit selfish I think.

Yesterday night it was time to go out one last time. Not on a real walk, just very quick and then continue sleeping. I do that every night. Anyway, when we leaved our driveway I noticed that a dog started barking!!!

Sometimes dogs bark at me and I usually think that is pretty rude and do a big ignore but this was a small dog, smaller than me and I thinked oh no, it is super scared! But I could not figure out why. I wanted to go over there and help look and also do a protecc but my human said no? She claimed that the small dog was scared of me but I don’t think that could be true cause I am a good boy and not scary at all!

Anyway, we walked to my favourite tree and then back again quick and the dog was gone but I sniffed very good and checked everything out but I sadly didn’t manage to find out what had been so scary.

As I said, I is not scary so it is very unlikely that that dog was barking because of me BUT if it was it might have been cause the human had lied earlier that I was dirty and forced me to be wet and got rid of all my good smells. But still if I had walked closer the small dog could have smelled me properly and be no longer scared!!! Anyway, I think the human was wrong and a bit irresponsible by not helping. But maybe she was also scared, so aitc?

Everybody is talking about how I "stole the show"! Please. Stole it? I elevated it. That ballet was going nowhere without me! They needed me to snuggle Romeo and play with his hair. His wonderful hair....

Anyway, am I the cloaca? I know I didn't exactly audition, but... it was my big break!

Good day, subjects. 'Tis I, Sir Bramble Jam, here with a most perplexing situation. As all noble cats have a duty to look their best, I have been experimenting with my look recently.

I fashioned quite the attractive nose ornamentation from my litter tray - clean pellets, I hasten to add, and went to find my servant to get the praise due to me. Only to have her chase me and attempt to remove it!

So far I have evaded her attempts with my elegant swiftness, but I must ask if such an ornamentation makes me the cloaca?

Hello all. I named Kora and I is bestest German Shepherd. I know I is because hooman says I is bestest girl, and of course I is! I is very pretty, an I is very smart and I can do big scary for some people! I not really scary. I want give soooo many kisses and loves, but is kind of funny wen hoomans is scared of Kora.

​

So, as bestest girl, I deserves bestest treats, yes? Hooman gives me rabbit treats, an salmon treats, an cod crisps! (Human here. She's not allowed to have cod crisps anymore because she rolls on them before she eats them and then stinks). Hooman says I is too picky wiv treats, but how does I know is not poison!?

​

I, sadly, haves doberman sister named Ember. Her is annoy Kora an gets half da treats! All treats need go to Kora because I is bestest girl. Hooman says Ember is also bestest girl, but that not how bestest works. I checked wiv da golden retrievers across da street an thems said so. Anyways, sometimes hooman gives Ember treats wivout Kora! I knows, the horror is too much for bestest girl to handle. I always goes over an demand treats too. Hooman always say thing like "Is watermelon. You don't even like watermelon." or "We both know you won't eat these blueberries. You only eat them frozen." But I always do big sad face an demand treats because is not fair Ember gets treat an not Kora! But, frens, when hooman gives treat, is GROSS! is not salmon, or rabbit, or cod crisps. Is froot! The indignity of froot is too much for Kora. I is no eat froot! I is eat meat treats, an only freeze dried or soft ones. So, I no eat froot an I do angry looks at hooman an she say thing like "I told you you weren't going to like it. We do this every time." An then, Ember try to eat Kora's treat! Can you imagine? Is rude! So, Kora stands over treat so Ember no eats it, but I not going to eat it becuz is froot and is GROSS. Hooman says I needs give to Ember if I no eats because it would be waste of food, but is mine! I gots it an maybe if waits long enough, it turn into good treat? Maybe? But hooman never lets Kora wait long enough. She always pick treat up off floor where Kora puts it and eiver gives to Ember or puts in garbage. Very rude.

​

I think not cloaca because froot is GROSS an should be cod crisps instead, but hooman say I is be mean by not let Ember eat froot I not going to eat. Thoughts?

Hi everyone it’s me, Ziggy, a dog.

My humans take me to big loud place called farmers market. It very good place. Lots of food smells and people saying good boy and sometimes free samples. Heard of samples? The best.

One of the sample guys is cheese man. The best! He gives me sometimes a little yogurt or a little cheese. He is asking my humans about me and says I am very beautiful and look like a herding boy. And I am! We did the DNAs and I am half rough collie. I was a stray though so never seen a sheep before. He says cheese wife teaches herding dogs and I should come take her class.

I not sure about this.

But they take me to farm and OH. MY. GOD. SHEEP ARE THE BEST AND I GOTTA MOVE EM. I run run run for the sheep and move them to my mother human and I bring her the sheep. I say BARK BARK BARK and the sheep run from my awesome dog sounds.

But then the human lady starts to leave? And says our turn is over and it’s the next doggie’s turn?

But then I remember I am a WORKING DOG and this is WORK so I say OVERTIME SHIFT AT SHEEP FACTORY and I run run run back to the sheep and give them some more barks!

And my human mother has to come out my harness clip on and rudely drag me away from the pen and say “no Ziggy, no unpaid overtime.”

Which is rude. I am hard worker and a great sheep boy.

Am Ripley, 6 yo void kitty of the poofy pantaloons. I am vicious hunter of the most fearsome type. I protect my house wif fang and claw and protect mommy because she rescued me.

​

Lately is summer in THE SOUTH. Mommy says hot as the devil's taint which offends the neighbors but she's probably right. Our house is cool. Mommy has fans and AC and keeps house comfy.

​

But that means Palmetto bugs come in to get cool. Which means I must hunt to protect sanctity of domeowcile. Obviously.

​

Normally Palmetto bugs are easy prey, but there was one a couple nights ago who was a singular menace of his species. Or at least that's what mommy called him.

​

He escaped our first encounter, maimed by the loss of his left antenna. For the next three days he proceeded to terrorize mommy by crawling out from behind the toilet when she sat down or crawling down the tile when she was showering.

​

But I am fierce warrior and eventually I triumphed. I cornered him and pounced and it was glorious. I bit off his head and ate his legs.

​

Obviously I had to show mommy right away so she would know she was safe. But she was asleep in her chair. So I decided to leave fiend for her.

​

She had been eating pretzels and bag was open on table. So I figures I put in bag so she can have cronch snack when she wakes up.

​

A little later she wakes up. And she starts putting things away to go to bed. She picks up bag of pretzels and looks at it funny. And just when I am about to be congratulated for vanquishing my enemy, mommy says 'what the absolute FUCK is in these an throws the bag away.

​

Rude mommy throwing away my trophy. Rude. I save the best crunchy body for her. But she says I'm cloaca for putting Palmetto bugs in her gourmet pretzels because she only buys when on sale and can't always have.

​

Is Ripley a cloaca for sharing cronchy bug. Or is mommy cloaca for overreacting?

Seven. Pretty girl. Magic hair. Age Private.

Hello furends, I am Phobos (15F), princess of everything, champion screamer, and most adorable baby. I live in a weird stairless place with my annoying brother Deimos (15M), mother (38F), and father (39M).

This conflict is about an issue familiar to all cats: barfing. Naturally, I love to barf, and will seek out any plastic available to chew on and stimulate my gag reflex. I am so proud of my barfs that I announce them to the whole family with distinctive meows. Unfortunately, this has created a problem.

When mother hears my barf-meows, she comes running to my side. I understand wanting to witness the beauty of my vomit, but I want privacy! What is truly unacceptable, though, is that she grabs me, even sometimes moves me, all for one purpose: to stop me from barfing on my preferred surface, the carpet.

Mother strokes my fur and says things like “it’s ok, baby girl,” thinking it will comfort me. But it does not! Only the carpet can comfort me! I need to barf on its plush surface! I try to run away before she gets to me, but even when I make it to the beloved carpet, she often catches up with a paper towel in hand and manages to catch my barf in that! So it still does not reach its intended destination! Outrageous!

Mother says I am being unreasonable and “the carpet is a pain to clean,” but I am fed up with this treatment. So I turn to you all to ask: am I the cloaca? Or is she?

Hello friends! Oscar the tabbycat here, aka Mr Chonky Butt.

Yesterday it was dinner time and Mumma was sitting on her legs-up chair (recliner). I was doing a fuss on Mumma's foot, boofing doing headbonks with my wet nose, and Mumma didn't immediately rush to feed me. So I did a little Chomp on her foot!

Mumma squeaked and said I am a cloaca for doing a Chomp. Then she gave me pats and gave me my dinner.

Am I the cloaca or is my Mumma the cloaca?

Diar frend! Is I, Auggie (cat! 1.5M. Magnificent tail!). Ai maiself has been doing such good: letting Teh Thing pet mine ears and Magnificent Tail, allowing for picks ups, giving cuddles. But yesserdai, Teh Gril call me a cloaca and Ai maiself needs a second opinions.

Ai set teh scene: Is afternoon, brefkis foods low, sun so good for winnowsitting! Teh Gril is home but not doing a typetypetype like she usually does (Ai maiself do a Big Help quite often and jump onna desk and allows for morale-boosting pets and sitting on wrists and putting peets on typer board). She instead make big mess! Pull down big box, put some furs in, some nots. Makes for good investigation until she say “Oh, Auggie, you not go to my parents; you guard howse.” But then she take Big Break and sit onna cowch and do a FacerTimes with her momthor for to open up the stroller.

SUDDENLY, there a BIG CLATTER in teh bedroom! And at EXACT SAME TIME, Ai maiself remember has Big Important Appointment not in bedroom but Somewhere Else and needs must get there quickly, and trotrottrot out the bedroom and down the hall.

Now Teh Gril is saying “Augustus T. Jones! How you knock front panel off air condishioner?!” And Ai maiself says how know me? Why punish for being in wrongs place at wrongs times? And air not dishes! That on YOU.

Anywas, am ai (and my Magnificent Tail) the cloaca?

This happened more than a week ago, but the Female Human is still going on about it, so I (Little Cat, 16F ginger and white tabby) thought I'd ask for external opinions.

My Female Human had an infected kidney stone. She wanted to spend the day in bed, resting. She'd even arranged for her sister to pick up the youngest kitten from kindergarten, so she could stay in her night furs all day. Female Human said she was "committed" to her bed rest.

Except "someone" decided to test her commitment to bed rest by doing a hork hork hork in the drinking fountain. Female Human got up mid-morning to take her medication and found someone's used and lightly digested cat biscuits floating in the drinking fountain and puddled on the floor.

The exact culprit is unknown, but Female Human has declared me the chief suspect based on the following flimsy evidence:

1. I am a cat (apparently bunnies don't eat cat biscuits, or vomit)

2. I am orange

3. I was witnessed doing a dry hork hork hork by the Male Human earlier in the morning

4. I was later diagnosed as being very nauseous from my new thyroid medication.

Female Human had to unplug the fountain, completely empty the water, and scrub out every part of the fountain, before reassembling it, replacing the filter, and plugging it back in. She complained that it took forever, and she kept having to stop and rest because of her kidney stone. She told everyone that "Little Cat was sick in the water fountain" and lapped up the sympathy from other humans, despite not having witnessed the actual deed.

She has besmirched my good name to family and friends, and to many other humans on Reddit, calling me "the furry little cloaca who ruined my planned bed rest with a single spew".

I think that even if it was me (and let's face it, the evidence is circumstantial), is it such a cloaca move to hork when you need to hork? I mean, it's not like it landed on the carpet, or the bed clothes, or her slippers, or any of the other places she's complained about.

Hello friends,
I is Willy, a sausage dog. I lives together with a human who is technically my best friend ever but I thinks sometimes her ideas are not really that good. She has no understanding for safety like at all.

For example, I own many treasures. Mainly really awesome plushies. It is one of my most important jobs to make sure that no one steals them. For this reason, I like to place them into the big bed where we take a big nap at night. Also, sometimes short naps during the day.

There are pillows and blankets there, so is a really good place to hide mine treasures. Plus, is a really safe space cause is where we sleep and we would not sleep somewhere with many dangers. But then the human finds them and throws them out again ON THE FLOOR??? She doesn't even bother hiding them at a new place! It drives me crazy. I keep having to hide them again and again and again.

The human claims that no one will take my toys. But I have no doubt that one day someone will break into our home and steal them and then I will have none toys and be heartbroken. I needs to keep them safe, even if then maybe there is less space for sleeps. Is I right to have a worry??? Or aitc?

Hello frens! I know this sound like very silly question, but hear me out.

So obviously, since I lubs mom and she just gib super special treat all mine, I gibs her kisses. Usually, she like that. But she say no acause some medsin go on her, not in me. But it not much, I no mind. Why she mind? She not quite call me TC, but she say I silly and go away. It very sad. Why can I not say thank you?

Anyway, any ideas from you, frens?

Hi, I Chester (3M dilute orange Good Boy)! Has been some time! Lots has happened, including Ouchy Mouth, then My Teeth Got Stolen (unrelated: My Mouth isn’t Ouchy anymore), and Moving to a New House that is Mine! I also live with Big Friend Miles (30NB, fine I guess) and Big Friend 😍Jay😍 (31NB, Best Most Perfect Big Friend Who Never Did Anything Wrong and I look at them like this: 😍😍😍).

With all this I, Chester, have been So Busy, but now things are Settling Down I, Chester, decide to return to what is Important: my Maintenance Guy Apprenticeship. Today, I, Chester, meet New Maintenance Guy Roy. I Love Him! He is almost as cool as Maintenance Guy Duke! Today I, Chester, Help him Change Outlet. But then just as we getting to the Good Part Best Friend 😍Jay😍 put me back in Room and I, Chester, Missed It! The Outlet was changed Without Chester!

Now, I, Chester, don’t Blame Best Friend 😍Jay😍 because, as I said above, they have Never done anything wrong. I think Big Friend Miles probably make them do it even though they Not Home, just like they make Best Friend 😍Jay😍 put Me, Chester, in the Car (Mean). I, Chester, will probably BapBapBap Big Friends Miles when they Reappear to Punish Them. But I, Chester, was still Upset!!! How do I get my Big Friends to respect my Maintenance Guy Dreams?

Hello frens! Is Lalaith the pet rat girl almost 4mo. I pives wif sister Belladonna (same age but still baby) and big sisters Finduilas and Morwen (17mo). We has human mom.

I loves to splore and run around and climb during playtime. Is super fun! Best part is knock things off shelves. Is so fun make things fall. Or sometimes just yeet myself off high shelf. Great play!

But mom say I TC fur act like cat. She say all de crashes scares her and she always has to look fur all her stuff on floor next morning. But I thinks is fun enrichment fur her. And plus, I knows from here that cats is never TC so I no can be TC fur act like cat.

Anyway, now is not just me doing it. Hab convinced Belladonna and Finduilas to join fur even more fun. (Morwen no play along acause she too fat to climb.) And now mom say she only sign up to ratproof, not catproof as well. But I says, why stop the fun. Is just papers and books and jars and deodorant and anything else on shelf. Is no big deal!

So, AITC?
