OMG - My cat has just leaped into a tray of paint!!!

[Smowball]

I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Was painting the bathroom and put the paint tray on the windowsill while I went to get a drink, opening the top bathroom window at the same time. I forgot that my stupid cats use the bathroom window as a catflap....... : (

Have just gone up there - one of them (havent found which bloody one yet!) has leaped in through the window, and landed in the paint tray. There is paint up the wall, over the towels, the toilet, the tiled floor - everywhere!! And to top it off the cat has then ran out of the bathroom and through the brand new landing carpet. Ohhhh, For Funks Sake.........

Is it too early for a G & T??

[cupid04]

You've just invented a new paint roller, LOL!

[Greedyfly]

Oh no... Hope kitty does try to like him/herself clean!

Bloody cats!

[Greedyfly]

[albaqwerty]

Cats, grrrrrrr

Hope your bathroom window is on the ground floor.....

[rockyracoon]

Oh no, that's not good, did make me giggle though, hope it's emulsion and not gloss.

[tinkerbell23]

[Smowball]

Bathroom is upstairs, and landing carpet is cream........... ohhhhhhh god

[mazie]

What colour is the paint Smowball?

[cupid04]

What colour is your cat now? And what colour was naughty pussy previously?

[mazie]

I don't envy the job of clearing up ! I'd have that large G&T before you start

[Smowball]

Paint is "mocha", as it says on the tin. Havent found either cat yet - though one is jet black, one is tortoiseshell - well they were an hour ago!

[albaqwerty]

I'm really sorry, I just shouldn't rofpmsl.

If the cats come back, throw them at Mr Smow tho.

[Smowball]

Have found which cat - just opened back door and there is a tortoiseshell and mocha coloured cat sat there looking very sheepish. ( can you get a sheepish cat??)

[Greedyfly]

Lol - will tortoise/mocha be going in the bath? Can't imagine they will like that one bit lol

[cupid04]

How about posting moggie on you tube?

[ummmm]

Ohhhhhhhhh....

Something similar happened to me recently. I left a purple tin of paint open on the windowsill in the bathroom. Cat, with his big fluffy tail, came in and his tail went in the paint. Luckily our carpet hadn't been laid at that point. I only realised what he'd done when there was paint all over the kitchen floor where he sleeps!

Naughty cats.

On the plus side...it should come out. My son threw a tin of pain at his brother in temper. It took him ages to clean up...but it did come out in the end. That was white paint on a red carpet.

this happened to me. i had the task of running about the house cleaning up the paint (blue) with white spirit off the carpet (green). mr kicker and son had the pleasure of washing the kitty. when they had finished, they were both scratched to Sugar and there were even bubbles on the bathroom ceiling. much sniggering later, we did eventually have clean cat, clean floor and clean bathroom. took some doing mind! x

[ummmm]

lcg - you're not stonekicker anymore :-)

[albaqwerty]

Would dogs come out cleverer on this occasion?? They would try to drink it tho...

[mccfluff]

murph's never done this. perhaps she is actually very well behaved
