This is a story one of my co-workers told me a few years ago.
She had two nawtee cats, Mouse and Rat. They were actually being very quiet on Thanksgiving evening, not pestering the guests as usual for "quality control" turkey samples. She went into the kitchen to fix up some tea, and there, sticking out the back of the turkey, was a striped tail!! Rat-cat, the culprit, took off with his brother, Mouse close behind.:D
hmmmm... on christmas when I was walking up the stairs at my grandma's house, I tripped (like always:rolleyes:) but this time I just so happened to catch myself. Anyways, any other time this would have saved some crashing down steps but this time, there was more pain. Something (I have no clue what) was on the step that my hand was on, and cut my hand really deep. I bawled like a baby! :rolleyes: It was all bloody and disgusting!
Oh Phred ....... I cannot write for laughing ..... :D
Years ago at my Aunts house we lost (RB) Tonee. All of us were looking every where for her, under everything. But we were looking to low........... she was 'on' the dining room table eating the butter !!
Another year, same Aunts house, Tonee ate a nut cover cheese ball. Pulled it off a buffet and had her way with it.
One Thanksgiving at my house. We cleared the table and sat the turkey to cool on the counter. May parents and I are in the living room when we hear a big 'thud'. We all run to the kitchen to see Leroy (RB kitty) had pulled the turkey off the counter and he and Tonee were eating it.
Kelcee is much more polite than these two were. She just sits and waits for us to bring the food to her. !!!

What is it with KATs and Cheese Balls??? :confused:
Years Ago, My old Rainbow Gang ~
Fred, da Furst Kat, and Casey & Arrow, da Dawgs,
often worked as a Tag Team in the kitchen... :rolleyes:
Fred Kat had "observed" that the 2-Leggers were headed out for
a Holiday Gathurin - *WITH* goodies to share...
I'd just un-wrapped a large Hickory Farms CHEESE BALL, placed it
on a platter surrounded by crackers, and covered with
NON-Kat-proof plastic wrap - all sitting on the kitchen counter.
EXIT Dad to powder his nose and grab a coat...
ENTER da KAT with a leap to the counter;
*ZIPP* went the wrap with a deft Klaw-Slash...
<munch> <munch> <munch>...
The <munching> and odor of Cheese drew a Krowd -
Casey & Arrow offered to "help" da Kat!
All I heard was the :eek: *CRASH* as the platter hit the floor...
The "GANG" split da loot in seconds and scattered -
Da KAT flew past me (headed for the sanctuary of under the bigbed) with
a HUGE gob of Cheese Ball hanging from her mouth;
Casey was devouring HER hunk under the dining room table;
Arrow was finishin off HIS piece near the fireplace.
I was surveying the "ruins" of crackers littering the kitchen and
wondering "Where's the Cheese Ball" when both Dogs had the nerve to
return and begin "helping" to clean up the Cracker Mess!
By the time I fished da Kat out from under the bigbed,
she was "washing up" and removing cheese bits from her wiskers!
:mad:
If memory serves, I stopped and bought some "mixed nuts" to take to the Gathurin.
But everyone enjoyed the Tail of the Missing Cheese Ball.
/s/ :rolleyes: Phred
.
The first Christmas I had my cat Sassy she did pull a few lights out of the sockets. Everyday when I got home from work I had to pick up at least half of the ornaments she had took off of the tree. At first I put them back nice but by Christmas I was just throwing them back on the tree!
My pups have torn up a few ornaments each year, we'll see what happens this year! :D
I have a "horror" story from Sunday night.
I went to a friends' Kids Christmas function, and got home at around 9:15, and as I walked in the door, got the words "don't greet Ruby" called out to me by my husband.
WHY, what did she do ..........
Apparently, Hubbie was sitting comfortably on the couch, watching TV, and heard some rustling noises. IGNORED THEM ..... then heard some more rustlng noises, and CRUNCHING ....
Got up to investigate and there was Madam Ruby, she opened a pressie under the tree that I received from a friend.
It was an extra large coffee mug that contained jelly beans ..... we have had such humidity here, and the jelly beans must have "melted" abit, creating a tempting smell for the Monster ...
Needless to say, he rescued the package and when I got home I had to remove half of the jelly beans because they were covered in doggy slobber ............. Ewwwwwwwwwwww :p
No more pressies under the tree ....... :D
Great stories everyone!! Other than our 1/2 naked Christmas tree because of Oreo, the ornament thief, I really don't have any...
Time to revisit holiday threads?:)
OMGoodness - I forgot about this ............... hahahahahaha

Needless to say we ended up taking half a pumpkin pie to Christmas that year.:o
I love that story!Quote:

As we found out later the door must not have been closed properly because our first dachshund, Amsel (that means blackbird ;)) went in and ate all that warm yeast cake, about 2 lb of it!!! Her belly dragged on the floor and for an evening we thought she would explode- but she didn't.
When she was younger she even figured out how to get on a table- if a chair was close by ;)
Years ago when I had my first Lhasa, she was just a 6 month old pup at Christmas time. Of course what pup doesn't like to get into things and chew them up. Her fur was mostly white at that tender age too.
I had a basket that was a holiday decoration on the fireplace hearth, and it was filled with artificial greens, pine cones, and fake apples. I guess the apples sparked her interest, since she decided to chew one up. They were styrofoam with a shiny red coating. White dog meets and chews red coated apple - I now have a pink dog! :( She was pink all around her mouth, all down her chest and both front legs. :eek: No harm came to her - she didn't actually eat it - just chewed on it some. No way I could get mad at her tho, since we all got a good laugh at her expense. :D
One Christmas my parents and I were at my aunt's place for the holidays. We had 2 dogs, and they had one. We all went out for lunch one afternoon and when we got home we walked in the house to see wrapping paper strewn all over the living room! Somehow, these three dogs had worked together to move all the non-edible gifts and dig out 3 or 4 packages (that were purposely stashed really deep under the tree and taped up really well so that they wouldn't be able to sniff them out) of Turtles! There were 2 boxes and one bucket of individually wrapped ones, and the three of them ate every last one! Luckily, Turtles are mostly caramel and pecans with a thin coating of milk chocolate. We called the vet who recommended we just watch them. None of them even threw up - but they did poop Turtles wrappers for a couple days!!!! :D
