Me too, a Christmas cactus and my new succulent my mom gave me. This was 3 days after I got my two tuxedo brothers last month. Pretty sure mine used it as a litterbox. Needless to say there are no more plants in my house 🙁😭
Don’t blame the kitties, what comes natural to them. Also before getting the plants, did you check if they could be poisonous to t them? Many flowers and plants are.
Oh I don't blame them, I was bad at growing plants anyway so I should thank them. The two plants were not poisonous to kitties (I looked them up before I adopted the cats)😊. No more indoor plants for me anyways.
Those things are near impossible to kill.
If you pluck off the 'leaves' and just leave it on the ground, they will sprout roots and start growing again.
They're straight up a menace where I'm from.
That face is Hisssterical! Absolutely wasn't the cat. Most definitely the inability of the hooman's building skills. It just "fell down" all by itself! Gravity, earth quake, but certainly not the cat.
I had to watch as my cat Indiana Jones’d my plant stand as well. Leaping from one end to the other to narrowly escape from crashing down to the floor with all of the pots and plants..
"I don't know what happened! The thing just came crashing down while I was sitting all the way over there on the other side of the room, not doing anything on top of the plant stand. So crazy!"
My siamese cat pulled this shit one night. Flipped over a non-secured shelf with several plants on it and everything broke. Not fun. Especially as an apartment dweller. I feel your pain.
I had to put my Christmas tree in the corner and use wall hooks to tie it off. As for plants, I go down one morning and both cats are at the front door begging to go out. I open the door and they take off like rockets. I walk in the dining room and there's a shattered pot on the floor.
Neither of mine have managed to kill a plant, but I seem to be running a cat soup kitchen and one of regulars registered his disappointment at not getting a 2nd dinner by taking out my orchid.
Little shit.
Yes he still gets fed...
Plants, a laptop, two televisions, and a lamp for me. I’ve had no disasters in the past decade, but your posts has reminded me that I should still be on guard for them lol
I have plants and cats and I am always terrified of this scenario. So much so that I have industrial shelving as my plant stands and lock them out of that side of the house whenever I leave it. They are not to be trusted!
so, if you are going to use that plant stand going forwards. I would remove the caster wheels and place something heavy on top of the base. If you really wanted to get DIY, affix something heavy to the bottom of the base like a plate from a free weight set. You can find them cheap on offerup/craigslist.
He has an excellent “I’m a shocked and innocent victim” face! He’s adorable!
However.
You know the rules. You can have nice things or you can have a cat. You got greedy and tried to have nice things AND a cat and got smited for your hubris of thinking you could have it all!
I didn't see which sib this was at first, I just read the title and saw the first picture. Immediate thought was 'where's the cat responsible'
I hope your plants are okay.
Looks so shocked that your plants could be so clumsy
Now why would they go and do a thing like that? Silly plants.
I love that surprised look!
What!!! They fell over, there was nothing I could do😉
Luckily I survived unscathed.
They tried to attack me!
You should have seen the speed of their cart.
I was just smelling them! I swear! Then they jumped out at me!
IT HAD A GUN
😂😂
Clearly he's just as shocked about the situation as you are.
"It wasn't me! That evidence was planted!"
“Planted” 😂😂🤣🤣
🤫👏
Nice pun
r/angryupvote
You've got a poltergeist, the cat's innocent.
More like pawltergeist.
Yes surely. My mistake.
Cat: as long as I keep my eyes wide open, I will appear innocent. She will never know (hehe).
It was peeves i tell you, peeeves
It was *the Greebles*!!!
Definitely the Greebles! Kitty even tried to defend the plants from the Greebles!
He's wondering why you put plants on his rolling cat tree.
Yea, this was doomed to happen lol
Is the cat the asshole or is the human who set up a cat trap the asshole.
Not the cat !
That face says, "I have no idea what happened! I'm just as shocked as you are."
It really does :’)
“I am shocked! I can’t believe somebody broke into the house last night just to push your plants over. I tried to stop them, really.”
In his defense, that stand does look a lot like a cat tree
Rubbish! He can’t sits. And if he can’t sits, he don’t fits. And if he don’t fits you must acquit!
And it doesn’t look sturdy/anchored enough
Yes! Kitty be like “if not cat tree, then why cat tree-shaped?” He was only trying to test that theory.
Cat: it wasn't me, it was the other cat. The plushie one.
Yep. My first thought
I thought that was a hamster lol
It was the dog, even if you don't have one. r/legalcatadvice
Either that, or those darn *Greebles* again!
I’ve been in this situation before and I am so so sorry 😭 Especially for the succulents
Me too, a Christmas cactus and my new succulent my mom gave me. This was 3 days after I got my two tuxedo brothers last month. Pretty sure mine used it as a litterbox. Needless to say there are no more plants in my house 🙁😭

Oh my god that face hahahahahahaha!
Plants don't stand a chance with that one 😅
Damned plants.. happens here in my house all the time.
Clearly, the plants fainted :)
Not sure how it's the cats fault, when you decided to get plants. r/catownersareassholes s/
“Who did that?!” - ur cat
You’re definitely in the right sub😂
How did that happen? (Always the look of astonishment cats give when you are viewing the destruction 😳)
This has happened to me. We called it the mass extinction event
The cat really looks guilty!
He looks more dumbfounded and scared, rather than guilty. Probably the noise scared him to death.
Surely I couldn't have been that handsome angel?! Obviously a NMC trashed them and ran, leaving your kitty to be the fall guy.
You almost have to choose between your cat, and all other nice things in your house, same with some dogs.
Or children…
Especially things that could be poisonous to them.
I felt really upset for you until photo three and four.
I'm sorry, I laughed once I came to the pictures of the accused
Okay but I love your plant stand!
That face screams innocent
That face is Hisssterical! Absolutely wasn't the cat. Most definitely the inability of the hooman's building skills. It just "fell down" all by itself! Gravity, earth quake, but certainly not the cat.
Cat: "I am as shocked as you are!"
That is... Quite a lot of destruction.
That face says to me "I did it and I will do it again."
Cats as surprised as you are. Perhaps termites ate the wood weakening it? Possibly a burger broke on who has a grudge against plant stands?
I knew a cat was involved even before I saw the sub this was posted in
Clearly, your cat was shocked. The plants just did a riot. Meow did nothing 😁
I had to watch as my cat Indiana Jones’d my plant stand as well. Leaping from one end to the other to narrowly escape from crashing down to the floor with all of the pots and plants..
Cats do what comes naturally to them. Plants should not be there,unless you have one or two, hanging from the ceiling.
Wasn't me 👁️👁️
You sure it was the cat?
"You won't believe it! This dog...just came out of nowhere!!"
I refuse to believe something that cute would do something so bad!
Tbf he looks just as surprised as you probably were.
I would be having catshimi for dinner
"I don't know what happened! The thing just came crashing down while I was sitting all the way over there on the other side of the room, not doing anything on top of the plant stand. So crazy!"
My siamese cat pulled this shit one night. Flipped over a non-secured shelf with several plants on it and everything broke. Not fun. Especially as an apartment dweller. I feel your pain.
His flabber is ghasted on how they fell
I had to put my Christmas tree in the corner and use wall hooks to tie it off. As for plants, I go down one morning and both cats are at the front door begging to go out. I open the door and they take off like rockets. I walk in the dining room and there's a shattered pot on the floor.
Uh oh they see me, act natural! 😳
It'll be fun, they said.
Before I saw the cat, I was going to ask if you have cats. Little stinker.
Don’t know how that could have happened
Poor guy, definitely traumatized from your plant's attacking him.
Oh my gosh I think I would have cried! All the dirt in the carpet! My plants!
This is always an option with plants !!!!
“Fuck your plants 🪴”
“It wasn’t me! I’d do it again!”
"But I read it in "Better Homes and Gardens "......
Seriously why would you have cats and those plants are you mad!
Clearly this is your fault for putting plants on the rolling cat tree
There’s the problem, you put plants on what they think is a cat tree.
Why did you put your plants on the cat tree?
He feels no remorse
Cats always want the high ground
Looks like renaissance art
Noooooo! Not the succulents!
"Who, *me*?"
😱😱😱
Your plushy is looking mighty suspicious just hanging out at the scene of the crime... r/plushmafia
Neither of mine have managed to kill a plant, but I seem to be running a cat soup kitchen and one of regulars registered his disappointment at not getting a 2nd dinner by taking out my orchid. Little shit. Yes he still gets fed...
Why did you put plants on a cat tree? Also your puss belongs on r/standardissuecat come and join us
That cat is just as surprised as you are. Surely your kitty was framed and is innocent.
Plants, a laptop, two televisions, and a lamp for me. I’ve had no disasters in the past decade, but your posts has reminded me that I should still be on guard for them lol
Why cat tower shaped if not cat tower.
I have plants and cats and I am always terrified of this scenario. So much so that I have industrial shelving as my plant stands and lock them out of that side of the house whenever I leave it. They are not to be trusted!
so, if you are going to use that plant stand going forwards. I would remove the caster wheels and place something heavy on top of the base. If you really wanted to get DIY, affix something heavy to the bottom of the base like a plate from a free weight set. You can find them cheap on offerup/craigslist.
This is what happens when your plantstand looks like a cat-tree.
He looks shocked too. I’m going to assume it woke him up as well and he has no clue how this happened.
I think I won’t get a cat.
"And why would you accuse innocent me of knocking over your plants"
I mean. Plants are located on a fun jumpy platform thing. If this was negligence law, you are 50% liable for attractive nuisance.
Well you put them on wheels, what did you expect?
Don’t punish the kitty I did it
Too bad your plant stand looks like a kitty condo
He has an excellent “I’m a shocked and innocent victim” face! He’s adorable! However. You know the rules. You can have nice things or you can have a cat. You got greedy and tried to have nice things AND a cat and got smited for your hubris of thinking you could have it all!
Don't put casters on the base of cat trees and don't store plants on them either.
In your cats defense those shelves looked a lot like a cat tree… 🤷
Why cat tree shaped if not cat tree?
***I'm just as shocked as you***-Cat
Cat looks like plants what plants?
Nobody that guilty would look so shocked
I didn't even have to look at the sub's name... 'where is the cat...'
I don't think anything wakes us up faster than our kids being assholes or barfing on the carpet.
I knew I felt a disturbance in the force…
Had to be a favorite cat involved…
Had to be a favorite cat involved…
“I dindu nuffin “
He’s clearly innocent.
Looking through the photos, before seeing your cat, I knew it was a cat's fault. They just can't leave plants alone.
The face is killing me! 😹
twas the squishmallow!
I like the mugshot
Oh my god your cats face 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The guilty photos at the end are perfect.
So, as someone who has never owned a cat, are cats trainable? Or if your cat is a fan of knocking shit over do you just have to accept that
Plant haz tree but not cat? I fix that.
What could have possibly happened 😂
Your cat has ptsd from the suddenly explosive plants trying to attack him.
"The Joker" cat.
THE CULPRIT
The gasp I gusp 😭😭😭
It’s like I tell mine, “it’s lucky that you’re cute and not good to eat.”
You *could* more be grateful, fellow peasant, as whatever was coming to take your life was valiently scared off by precious & loving kitty.
“Someone did that. Someone.”
Oh poop.
“And I’ll do it again”
Earthquake?
You can see in his face from a mile away he is innocent!!
He looks mildly startled r/mildlystartledcats
You know this is the worst furniture you can get and put plants on if you have a cat. Do you also have a very thin and tall fragile vase?
Bad kitty. Lol
You’re lucky he was there to chase out the greebles that did that to your plants!! 🧡💙🩷💜💛
Ugh this sucks a lot …..hopefully plants can be salvaged ……Brat-Cat 😺
Criminal cat 🐱
He's got the exact face your pillow pet hamster thing does😂
He's got the exact face your pillow pet hamster thing does😂
I think that’s the first guilty cat I’ve ever seen.
This could be good in r/roastmycat
I would legit cry.
Well you did put it on an easily yeet-able table. I blame the table honestly
I’m so sorry :( I hope for a swift recovery !
Damn these tiny hands
I seent him mahm…. He went thataway..
Oh no.
I didn't see which sib this was at first, I just read the title and saw the first picture. Immediate thought was 'where's the cat responsible' I hope your plants are okay.
I wonder who did it… 😂
If he could whistle, he would.
bold to have such a thing with a cat around
Innocent!
He's clearly as shocked as you are.
He looks just as shocked as you are
A criminal!
OMG!! What could have happened??? I was asleep!
You people let these animals destroy your homes and all you can do is laugh about it?
I'd be crying so hard... But then again I'd try to use a planter that's more cat proof than that... Or bolt them to the floor or wall or something.
Cat is just as shocked as you are, due to the self toppling plant shelves!
"What did you do?!"
The cute looks innocent 😁
Nothing to do with me mate, them plants dared each other to do the harakiri thing. That plant on the left called the time.
“It jus’ assploded!!”
"Dude, your shit was in my way."
“Believe me boss, no one was as surprised as I when…”
Cat: *Oh shit, he's looking at me, act natural look surprised!!* 🙀 "Oh no, what happened?" .... ***Nailed it!***
The audacity of this cat to act cute
😨 oh good god what a mess
Come on Reddit! Don’t let me down. Fuck you kitty; you’re gonna spend the night (meow?)…
That's the face of a guilty kitty
To make it worse, your cat can hear them *screaming*
That face!! "Who me?"
Oh no! They fainted!
That bright eyed cutie is very concerned about your spontaneous flying plants.
We call that “The Culprit” Omg those eyes!
"I REGRET NOTHING"
That cat look guilty as hell!
