Poll of the Day > So an update to pets destroying stuff while I'm gone.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Well a few of you may remember a few topics from me from last year. I had a friend move in last year, into my home. Within a few weeks of him being there. There started to be incidents at home, that I was told was my animals, getting into huge fights while I was gone.

It started with them supposedly just fighting really bad, then the next time they fought and broke all my window blinds on 3 windows in one day, then they knocked over and broke my monitor. I'd come home nearly daily and find my keyboard, mouse.. gaming headset hanging off the desk or on the floor, then a few weeks later they supposedly fought into his room and broke his G13 and his work laptop, then a few weeks after that they knocked over and broke both of my new 24" LCD monitors, shattering both of them...etc..etc.


The odd thing was they'd never done this before, it was something that started a few weeks after my roommate moved in, and while the cats did/do fight, they are cats.. and Frodo does get too rought, they never got into these insane issues while I was home. So I started taking the more aggressive cat Mr. Frodo and putting him in the walk-in closet with toys, food, water, litter box while I was at work. This solved the issue for the last few months. Except that he cried all the time and my roommate was always complaining about it.


Theories on here ranged from my roommate himself doing this stuff himself or he was doing something to the animals to make them misbehave like this.

Well he up and booked at the first of the year. I continued to separate Mr. Frodo for Jan/Feb and most of March. But I had taken a few shorter trips out of the house and left him out and everything was fine. So about mid March I decided to leave him out, as I always felt so bad separating him every day. One day turned to two, Then a week and now about a month or so and I have not had a single incident. Nothing disturbed when I get home. Not a thing.

dude was probably getting your cats drunk or giving them drugs while you weren't home so they'd fuck shit up

It is possible that after being locked in a closet for so long the cat has simply changed its behaviour.

Did you ever consider some cheap nanny cams to see if the room mate was responsible?
