    I would wait until they were coming up the driveway, toss it on the floor and wail oh no Fluffy what did you do!!!
    Blame the Cat!!!

    Just kidding.
    I would replace it if I broke it.

    ROTFLMBO!

    Go, Gary!


    Yeah, I'd feel so guilty that I'd replace whatever it was. I can't LIVE with guilt!

    Catsitting question

    In that position I would definitely replace it then be completely honest with the owners about what happened and how it happened. The problem might be very simple to fix, a jammed knob or worn out washer or something like that. Be honest and offer to replace it.

    I still like dropping it, and saying Oh Fluffy what did you do to that painting, vase etc.
    And you were such a Good Cat.
    What will I do?
    Oh youre home! Fluffy was so excited that he broke this.
    Oh, how did it fall from the second floor?

    I do alot of catsitting and they, in turn, catsit for me.

    If I'm the catsitter and I break something, I replace it....no matter what the cost. I then tell them what happened when they get home.

    If I'm away and my catsitter breaks something of mine, I absolutely do not expect them to replace it.

    Oh yes, I don't catsit for money....just the pure pleasure of it.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I guess if I was clumsy enough to break something (which I am and do it all the time) then I'd replace it, I couldn't live with the guilt either.
