What The Hell Is That Smell!?

April 24th, 2007 @ 6:29 pm by Mrs. Strawberry

My life is hilarious. That is the only logical conclusion that I have come to after what happened this afternoon.

Where to begin……

My office is five minutes away from my house, so I usually go home to eat lunch and watch some thought provoking reality television such as the new Tori Spelling show on Vh1. (Don’t judge me.) Oh and I go home to squish my cats. I know. It’s weird. But they’re my babies.

Well, upon entering the house today, I turned on the tv and proceeded to the kitchen to warm up some tomato soup. I brought said soup into the living room and sat down to see what predicament Tori and Dean would get themselves into this week.

All of a sudden, I got hit with a pungent odor. Sour. I couldn’t figure out what it was. Not right away. I sniffed around and then got up and went into my “craft” room. (I’ve converted the living room into wedding craft central.) That’s when I noticed that the large cardboard box containing my favor boxes for the miniature cupcakes (that had just arrived yesterday) was soaking wet.

Soaking wet with what you ask? I’m sure it is pretty easy to guess. It wasn’t a burst water pipe. No. It was URINE. Cat urine. MOTHER F****ING CAT URINE ALL OVER MY FAVOR BOXES!!!!! Those little sh*ts were no where to be found either. They better hide. I will serve them at the wedding. I swear.

That’s horrific. Definitely the most expensive cat litter in town!

Oh, dude. That really sucks! And yet, is also hilarious, because that’s a cat for you. Hope they won’t be overly expensive to replace. I’m thinking the door might need to be kept shut next go-round to keep the kitties out of the craft room…

Yuuuuuck!

We’ve got cats too, so I’m well aware of hte situation. Luckily ours don’t have many accidents, but they do enjoy playing ‘poop hockey.’ And shockingly, they seem to have trouble figuring out why Mr B and I don’t enjoy *cleaning up* poop hockey. Yeesh!

Only fellow cat owners understand…

OMG I’m sorry, I only laughed because I have 3 cats and they recently clawed through several different clothing items- I wouldn’t mind much, but they were great bargains on eBay that I found! Good luck with the aftermath!

I know some really good recipes for cat, if this sort of behavior continues.

Oh no! That is funny though. I think they sense things are going on and don’t like it. We never have a problem with urine just dingle berries and cat dookey smudges.

oh dear… I was originally going to comment that I would go home an squish my kitties over lunch if work were close to home, but now I guess the sentiments is for neck wringing.

I don’t think my current cat would do something like that, but I can totally imagine our last cat doing it.

That sucks. Do what my parents do when their cat misbehaves. Put them in a pet carrier for a day or two.

I’m sorry to laugh but that is too funny! I have 2 cats so I can totally see this happen. I also understand poop hockey! There’s no point in scolding them either - they just turn their back to you and ignore everything you say.

Hilarious! I know at the moment it didn’t seem so funny, but this story will be one of those that you look back on after the wedding and crack up about. Luckily you have plenty of time until your wedding, so it can be more funny than stressful :)

Ha ha ha. Hilarious.

By the way, my office now officially thinks I’m nuts- I was just crying over Ms. Emerald’s post and now I’m laughing hysterically over yours. Weddingbee has diven me over the edge of sanity.

That stinks! The line “I will serve them at the wedding” made me laugh. Will it be expensive to replace them?
Miss Blueberry - you made me laugh out loud at work with the poop hockey story.
Cats… *sigh*… My boyfriend and I have 2 and they can be a handful. Our little boy scratches on our matress, and the little girl chews. We have a cat budget set up for food, medicine and the like, and if they ruin something the cost to replace it comes from that budget. It doesn’t punish them, but it covers what they destroy.
I think I would cry and then yell and then cry again!

::Rethinking the whole getting a cat with FI thing::

Your cats are adorable but that’s insane! I would be livid…and as a future guest at your wedding….I’m not so much a fan of the kitty chow. Remember deep fried kitty fat at Chili’s in Spokane? Please don’t make me re-live that. ;-)

nn Love is on Oxygen here, too, I think (Seattle).

Cracked me up! Now I don’t miss having a cat so much. They sure have a way of finding anything that smells “foreign” and “fixing” it.

I’m sure you are throwing away the favor boxes, but if the urine smell persists, use Icky Poo cleaner. You can usually find it a professional cleaning supply or carpet supply stores. It is the only thing I’ve found that really really really works to get the smell out of carpet and linens.
