**What Happened:** I recently moved into a cozy apartment with my cat, Whiskers, who has taken it upon herself to ensure every corner of our new home is “just right.” She has established a strict policy of “Quality Control” that involves batting at my potted plants until they shed their leaves and stealthily stealing my dinner whenever I turn my back. Just yesterday, while I was unpacking, I found her lounging majestically on my stack of important documents, making it painfully clear what she thought of my organizational skills.
**Why It’s Funny:** It’s hilarious how she treats the whole situation as her personal kingdom, wandering around like she owns the place, which, honestly, she might as well. I feel like I’m more of a quirky housemate than a pet parent. I’m not sure if I should be annoyed that my cat has declared herself the ruler of the couch or flattered that she thinks I’m worthy enough to share her domain. Who knew living with a cat could turn into a sitcom pilot complete with drama, mischief, and constant negotiation over couch space?

The only scenario – *only* \- where it’s acceptable to flip the toilet paper roll around – is when you have a cat.
R
Came here to say this! The other thing I learned after years of being a cat owner is to feed them wet food in the evenings. They’ll no longer feel the need to play the bongos on your forehead in the morning if you switch the schedule up.

Now this is fascinating information. If it works, it will save me SO MUCH sleep deprivation. Thanking you in advance 🙏🏼
T
If she is smart, she may still be able to figure out a way to make a mess. If she is even a little bit orange, not a chance, but she may get so frustrated by it she will knock things off your shelves or pee in your shoes to demonstrate her displeasure.
D
Look at her she’s at least 25% orange
T
Hope that works for you, my girl figured out how to still unroll the toilet paper when flipped. My toilet paper lives in the cabinet forever now behind a child lock because she knows how to open cabinets too. 😭

I tried it. Let’s say you feed them at 5pm. From around midday they follow you around and remind you not to forget to feed them. Drove me mad. At least now that I feed them in the morning I have the whole day when they only demand pats/play and occasional treat. It’s not nearly as hostile, intense and stressful.

The way my reddit app showed the message meant I read “…after years of being a cat” in a single line for a second I thought we finally got a cat’s perspective! Lol.
R
i do the wet food at night and still get woken by screaming at 4 am
F
Yep. You own a demigorgon. You live in the upside down now.
S
Yeah little shits, I had something vanish from my desk and I am convinced the cats took it and probably dropped it in the garbage can in my room and I threw it out. It wouldn’t be the first time something important has ended up in there. Or it’s been stolen and hoarded in their hidden stash of stuff. Cats are definitely little chaos agents.
A
A cat… or a toddler.
E
>is when you have a cat. Or toddlers
I
Or a puppy.
T
In the photo here, the toilet paper can be rolled back up. If you flip it, my cat will just shred the roll into Swiss cheese and render it unusable. Choose wisely. 🤣
I
I’ve told my mom this so many times and she still ‘fixes’ my tp every time leading to the pictured result.
M
This. Otherwise beards are cooler than mullets.
I
Toddlers count as cats.
E
And what about if your cat eats the toilet paper off the roll? Just takes a bite out of it instead of unrolling it?
R
100%
T
And the only acceptable way to live is with a cat, so it should always be flipped
M
TWO cats, IMO. preferably siblings.
T
Yea at least one but two is better
D
It doesn’t work for me My cats find a way
C
I’d rather press the toilet paper roll flat to make it harder to roll it off completely than flip the roll.
C
Correct. And if that doesn’t work, tape big piece of foil over it for a couple weeks until she loses interest.
S
House rabbit owner here, we have to flip our TP the opposite way as well. Buns are as naughty as cats!
J
I put it on the other way always… If the holder comes out, the TP rolls into the wall, not away across the room. (In the image, it’d be less likely as it would roll into the toilet, but usually it’s not behind the user – it’s forward of them.)
D
False. This is the only way to hang your toilet paper.
T
*BEGONE, MONSTER*
E
Normal cat behavior.
R
and here i am thinking y’all are insane for allowing your cat into the bathroom… It just seems super gross to me (my bathroom door stays shut and my cat is never allowed inside)
T
That cat didn’t do that. I can tell by the look on their face
B
I was there and I’m here to testify it was like this before the cat entered the room.
C
You mean the TP isn’t shredded into tiny bits, eaten, then vomited on you bed? You are lucky 😁
S
Put the roll backwards. That’ll fix it.
R
Yes, cat ownership is the one reason to install TP the *wrong* way.
S
Considering that owning a cat is the *right* thing to do, I’ll have to disagree…
S
If she knew that the help was criticizing her lifestyle online…
C
Those eyes say “I know what I did. And I’ll fucking do it again too”.
N
This is not fine. This is perfect – Cat
R
this is the only acceptable reason to hang the roll the other way round
L
Flip the roll! Rookie mistake
V
Was she a co signer?
V
Pinch the roll into an egg shape, and it will limit how fast and easy it comes off.
B
“Now roll it back up u peasant”
Z
Those eyes are saying, “I know what I did. And I will do it again.”
O
Cat? FFS my wife does that
A
Ok sure but the cat didn’t do that
Q
My cat doesn’t even wipe!
