'I'm speechless, 2 times already': Man wakes up to flooded flat after cats leave tap running
AsiaOne ^ | JUNE 13, 2021 | Amierul Rashid

Having a pet can be an extremely fulfilling experience. You get companionship and with that, intriguing anecdotes tend to follow.

However, not many stories would be able to match up with what Zul, a local TikToker, posted last Wednesday (June 9).

It's not every day you come across a flooded home caused by your pet cats' mischievous actions.

But for Zul, it wasn't the first time either.

"I'm speechless guys, it's the second time. Both the same, when I'm sleeping with no one else home," Zul said.

Zul doesn't only have one or two cats, he's got a clowder of Russia Blue.

Somehow, his cat (or cats) figured out how the kitchen tap worked and waited for the perfect time to strike โ€” when the human wasn't awake.

The worst part for Zul was that he was just about to head to work but had to take urgent leave to clear up the mess instead.

That didn't seem to bother his cats one tiny bit. Many were in s state of pure serendipity, splashing about in the water with not a care for the world.

"Don't play! Look, they're playing in the water.

The one that's gotta clean this mess is me, luckily my parents aren't home," Zul quipped.

Towards the end of the video, some cats were just chilling on the furniture, seemingly avoiding the water now that they've had their fair share of fun.

Zul was still trying to come to terms with what his cats had put him through.

"It's like a swimming pool, y'all go and swim!," Zul said in annoyance as he threw a tennis ball towards his cats.

The following day, Zul posted another video of his cats running amok at home.

This time, it wasn't to do with kitchen taps but kitchen towels instead.

Bits of the kitchen towels were scattered everywhere, from the space surrounding a room door to the entire kitchen area and kitchen toilet.

"I came out of the room and was shocked. Look at what they're doing. They're playing with tissue! They're playing with tissue!" Zul asserted in the same exasperated tone from the previous post.

A netizen tried to get Zul to look on the brighter side by stating that at least it's an easier clean-up on Zul's part, as compared to when his cats were playing with water.

Another netizen felt like the cats were just too cute and adorable. Zul admitted that he too saw the funny side and found it difficult to get mad at them.

When you can say that, even after two flooding incidents and bits of kitchen towels littered everywhere, you know that the love for the cats is unconditional.

Big ups to you, Zul!

Canโ€™t trust cats. If they were bigger, they would eat you.

The only way that this could happen is if the drain was restricted. Which it should not be. So this fool got what was coming to him.

I think you’re being a little tough on the guy.

I got a drainage basket in my sink and I can see the cats playing around or stepping on the thing and shutting it down from draining.

Which I will do if I go away so this does not happen to me.

We had a cat that did that. One day I came home to a film of water creeping up the hallway. I had to put cups upside down to block access to the levers. I have video of him turning on the faucet.

I have a cat that decided to sleep in the bathroom sink. Somehow, they managed to turn the water on while in there and after that incident they never gotten here that sink again.

Luckily, even if the drain was closed bathroom sinks have the overflow. However, I was home and heard a loud commotion in the area of the bathroom and God to investigate, found the sink running in for the trail of water to a sopping wet cat Hiding under the bed.

Just flip your rolls of toilet paper upside down. Your cats will be happy to unroll them to soak up the water.

Ours doesn’t drain as fast as the water coming in.

Miss Kitty has been proudly bringing in bugs every few minutes. A bit ago, she brought in a snake about 18” long and thick as a finger. Nearly dropped it in the middle of sleeping hubby.
