Ok, so we're all perfect angels here (cough), but have you ever witnessed the crimes of a clanmate who's up to no good? Or have you ever dabbled with the dark side yourself? Lets here it!
Well...I wasn't allowed to jump on the counter in the kitchen...but I would. It didn't matter if anyone saw me or not. The whole family could be standing right there and if I heard popcorn popping in the microwave or smelled it on the counter I'd jump up there. Then I'd get sprayed with water from the squirt bottle :p

I liked hearing all your stories, pets! One tip for counter kitties--my mom has heard of putting plastic wrap on the counter till they learn not to get up there. They're supposed to dislike the slippery footing the plastic wrap creates.

Sorry about that, my kitty comrade. :) I know the counter must be a fun place to explore. My mom's family had some kitties who would jump up on the counter and eat the bread. I mean they would chew through the plastic bag and everything (even with full bowls of cat food). And these cats had no concept of 'a slice'--instead, they'd eat the whole top of the loaf.
Cat fang marks in bread, now there's something you don't see everyday!
My brother Pando was bad for a while. My mom was afraid of him gaining weight and suspended his late night snack. She also forgot to get him the big bones he likes.
So he dug a hole under the backyard fence and showed up at the front door with his list of demands!
Now my mom does whatever he wants.
I don't care though...She does whatever I want too!

Rain has this thing about socks. She finds a sock and it must die! Chief likes to shred any type of paper that he can get a hold of. I tried that once, but Mom caught me. She wasn't happy. I need to get Chief to teach me how to be more sneaky. Shhhhh....Don't tell Mom, though!
My sisters are kitties and they climb the screen on the back porch. I bark at them to get down but they never listen....especially when they chase lizards up the screen.
I like to go and explore the whole house when mommys not home, sometimes I will use my doggy stairs and get on her bed and mess up the pillows! She hates it, I love it though! I sit by the door when mommy's not home though, its my cover up for the bad girl side I have, it makes me look like I am good all the time... ((NOT)) When I get in trouble, I don't like the listen, then, if I deserve a spanking, I have to get an extra from running away from mommy, I give her the puppy eyes and she loves me all over... then she makes me stay by her side though, when I want to its fun, but when I have to I hate it! :( :]
My personal favourites are remote controls. I have destroyed 2 and semi destroyed the newest one. I am not as bad as my moms friends' pitties. They have destroyed 1 wallet with credit cards, remote controls, 2 cell phones, 1 leather couch and eaten numerous bars of soap. (yuk) She loves them dearly. My auntie used to have a dog. It was won (no laughing please) at a poker game. They figured the dog was better off with them, he was a bit of a handful. They were always saying get down, cause he jumped up all the time. When he passed on their neighbour asked where "get down" was. They had to inform him after all those years that was NOT the dogs name. They also had a cat. Every day everyone would go to work and the kids would leave later for school. When they got home there was always something that looked like orange juice on the counter. Of course the kids took the fall for that until one day Auntie decided to try and find out what it was. Yup she stuck her finger in it and tasted it. Lets just say that the cat had been on the counter. eeeew!!!
Well, my mom's brother had
Well, my mom's brother had this hellion of a dog when they were kids...he was the naughtiest animal she's ever met.
Some of his many acts of insubordination include:
Chewing through all flavors and varieties of electric cords.
Stealing a peanut butter sandwich right out of her hand!
Biting into her clothes while they were still on the clothesline and swinging to his heart's content--and till her clothes were in shreds.
All in all, he was a delight.
