Scary Smart Pets | People Stories #242

reddit what have your pets done that is worryingly smart i have a three-month-old pup who got dirt in her eye one day for i kept tearing up and she held it partly shut for a few hours during that time i felt really bad for her and handed out a lot of treats since then when i am eating she begs by winking that eye with a tiny whimper her wink is non-stop if she's called by someone else in the home she looks at them with perfect eyes i get the broken i want she gets the goods fully working eyes she is a mix from astray my cat's done something similar my husband and him were playing and somehow he managed to twist his foot for a month after every time he walked past a room my husband was in he'd start limping he made sure my husband saw it every time once he was safely past the door he would resume walking completely sound we had a dax and growing up and he could tell when my mom was going to have a seizure he would start circling her over and over barking ironically he ended up with epilepsy himself but it didn't shorten his lifespan they helped each other out he lived 17.5 years i miss that dog our dax hadn't had seizures too where he couldn't walk would cramp and vomit a little he didn't had it often though he lived for about 15 years every day when my brother and i pull in the driveway from school we can see our dog on my brother's bed at the window above the garage where he knows he isn't allowed to be when we walk into the house he is laying behind the living room couch and picks his head up and looks at us like he's been sleeping there all day i had a yabby in my freshwater tank that is a genius i one day watched him gather some food pellets into his cave wait for the fish today eat the rest then a few minutes later place them in front of the cave entrance then attacked and ate a fish that came to eat the pellets he stockpiled his meal to later bait an even better meal that sucker is in his own tank now that's brilliant my yabby used to arrange plastic rocks in different color combinations every day one day it may be one pile for each color and the next all the blue and yellow on one side of the tank and the pink and green on the other etc he was probably really bored one of my dogs knows how to open door handles the other one can't even figure out that he's not supposed to eat rocks it's a mixed bag with my pets when i get asked to do some things i'll groan jokingly and do the thing anyway now when i call my dog while she was sleeping or if i accidentally nudge her at the foot of the bed then she groans with attitude like i would kind of adorable kind of freaky my dog does this too i swear he has such an attitude my cats teamed up and got a tub of butter off the kitchen work top took it outside removed the lid and had an all-you-can-eat butter party a friend's cat figured out how to get the cover off the butter container so he could lick it the funny part is he learned how to put it back on so my friend and his wife would uncover it and find huge dents in the middle of the stick it took them months to figure out what was going on and now they have to buy locking butter dishes they figured out that if they want the toy or bone the other has to go to the front door and bark like a stranger is walking up to the house when the other dog shows up to assist in barking run like heck to get the toy it's not just clever but dishonest in the worst kinda way just wait till they start using it to steal your spot on the couch growing up i had a yard that was surrounded by fence except at the entrance where the cars came in at the front my dog knew she wasn't allowed to go outside the yard so when we'd call her and she was out galloping she would go to the neighbor's yard in the back hop the fence and come back over then strut around the back side to the front like hey i've been been here the whole time i only found out because one day i was walking around the house calling for her and caught her sneaky bee this see similar to my dog before i wouldn't allow him on one of the couches a rocking lazy boy style one but he loved it at night he would sleep in it but if he heard me coming downstairs he'd quickly jump off run over to his bed and try to time it so it looked like he was coming from his bed as i walked down the last set of steps brilliant plan except i could still see the chair rocking i had a cat that learned how to open the fridge and then my dog started begging my cat for food and then the cat started getting into the fridge just to feed the dog i patiently await the day where my pets decide to overthrow me and have me fixed i'm not fighting it that'll only make it worse in the long run that's hilarious it reminds me of a cat and dog i had a long time ago the cat was always up on the counter and knocked leftover food down for the dog who was jumping up and down with joy that taught me to never leave any food out anymore after he ate half a chocolate cake that way we were looking after a friend's dog we came home from work in the evening with a huge pile of dirt by the front door the dog and like every other time we came home was lying on the couch looking very guilty about something you know the look it took us forever to figure out where the dirt came from we had an old flower pot downstairs on a shelf the pot had been emptied by the front door and the pot returned to the shelf like nothing had happened i can just imagine the papa picking up the flower pod walking around with it then dumping it out and he's like crap crap crap i'll just put it back on the shelf they won't notice i have two horses red and mickey they are yarded next to each other and there is enough of a gap in the fence that a clever horse may work out that they can just manage to pinch the others hey through it red took it a step further and realized that if he could steal mickey's hay mickey could steal his so he waits until mickey is distracted by his bucket feed and then red takes his own hay from his own feeder and deposits it across the yard where it's safe he then goes back and takes mickey's eye and deposits it where it is safe then red eats his hard feed and two lots of hay we had to move all the hay feeders my former horse was a big escape artist so we put him in a small electrified pen he was barefoot so he figured out that if he stood in the sandy soil and just barely touched his whiskers to the electric fence it would ground out and then he could jump or bust out without getting shocked he understood electricity a lot better than i do my cat figured out how to fill up my bathtub he learned how to close the drain and would turn the water handle and would just sit there and watch the tub slowly fill up it took me weeks to figure out what was going on he may be planning to drown you also watch out for any toaster or hairdryer moving activity be careful not current pet but a dog i had as a teenager dog jumps up on the couch no you're not allowed on the couch go lie in your bed dog leaves the room a moment later he returns with his bed and throws it on the couch gets back up on the couch in his bed and stares at me fair enough this would be my exact response if my dog is smart enough to understand my meaning and also derive a loophole from it then wow guess i'll applaud that one of my cats learned how to turn the internet off i mean he realized everybody goes crazy when he goes behind the tv stand and messes up with the wires so when we're not paying enough attention to him usually if we're on our phones or the computer he just unplugs the router i don't think he knows how much power he has every morning for breakfast i always eat fruit and that weekend there was a farmer's market selling fruit for cheap so i bought a ton i couldn't fit them in the fridge so i left a few bags on the side in the dining room reachable distance i crap you not i woke up and was surprised to see an apple next to me over the next few days my dog would get up in the morning go in the bag and get a fruit to put next to me on the bed he proceeded to do this for the next two weeks until we ran out i thought it was the cutest thing ever but a part of me is like holy crap your dog brought you breakfast in bed that's the cutest thing i've read all day when my dad was having a difficult time in life he moved into my apartment he's really into sports and mostly death so when he enthusiastically cheers for his beloved detroit tigers he doesn't realize how loud he is one early evening while i was asleep because i work midnight the tigers scored or something and my dad loses his mind which woke me and my cat up i grumbled and closed my eyes but my cat mike was not having it she walked into the living room and all i hear is my dad go oh sorry i'll be quiet and then my cat walked back into my room jumped back on the bed and we both went back to sleep i don't know how to break this to you but i think you're living in a sitcom we used to keep my childhood dog in the garage while we were at school she once found an old garage door opener figured out how it worked and buried it in an old dead potted plant in the garage when we left for the day she would nose around in the dead plant till the door opened and go play with the neighbor's dog in their living room because she also figured out how to open their sliding door and let herself in my cat was sleeping on her cat tree when i walked over to look through stuff on the table next to the tree i scratched her on the head and woke her up then turned away to do whatever it was i was there for i felt a tap on my shoulder so i turned around and as soon as i was facing the cat she reached out and smacked me across the face she then went back to sleep we have a cat tree in the kitchen and you have to walk by it it's near the doorway if she didn't like the way you pet her or she wants food you didn't provide she'll whack you when you your back is turned not so much worrying as it is somewhat annoying and funny but my golden will walk up to the xbox look at the xbox button boop it with his nose and wait for the light to turn on and the chime to sound and then just walk away all satisfied looking for a couple of months i would come home from work and notice the xbox was on but no i had turned it off i accused my fiance of leaving it on until one day i was in the next room and heard the chime so i ran in and he was walking away from it then he started to get flagrant about it and do it right in front of me and eventually turn it off if i was playing it and he wanted my attention goldens are a trip i love my golden for these reasons one night i had paused a movie on my laptop and fell asleep he was laying at the bedroom door and could see the movie he isn't allowed in the room but he thought we should keep watching so he snuck onto my bed and hit the space bar i didn't wake up until the loud fight seen a while in and freaked out he was just curled up on my bed watching [Music] my cat will look very intensely at where i'm sitting making me think i'm sitting on a toil maybe some treats so i'll get up and she'll quickly curl up in my spot so i can't sit back down but then i have to go find a new seat to sit in she taught the other one to do it too they are seat stealing buttholes i would do the old trick when my cat yawns to stick my finger in his mouth don't know why i do it i guess it's just funny to see his expression when boom suddenly finger so the other day he is sitting on my lap and i yawn he wakes up and does a stretch perfectly putting his paw in my mouth boom suddenly poor still no idea if by accident or if planned his smug expression afterwards makes me lean towards the latter not as much smart rather worryingly calculated on christmas eve i was wrapping the cat's favorite treats because i'm that person the three boys weren't too fussed about this but amber the princess wanted the treats now of course she's a cat and has no concept of christmas so i gave her one of her normal treats and put the presents away she was not amused by this now the thing about amber is that she never came upstairs she had tiny little legs that made the journey too long so she commandeered the downstairs instead but that night i was woken up by weird cat chopping i opened my eyes and on the shell fire level across from me was amber i was confused as to her why she was upstairs and be how she got on my shelf as i was thinking this whilst maintaining eye contact she stuck out a paw and swiped one action figure off the shelf i didn't react at first so she did another and another by the third i realized what she was doing and i said her name in shock to which she hopped off the shelf and left my room like it was nothing and that confirmed my suspicions that amber held grudges and exacted revenge my cat would do that at 4am i used to work night shift and get home around then and play with her when my shifts change she would try to wake me up at 4 to play if i ignored her that's what she would do knock crap down while looking at me when i would get up all pee off she would start purring my dog understands christmas as in he will sit where the tree goes throughout november once the tree is up he'll lie beside it crying once there are presents he'll pour at them and carry them to us because he wants to open them on christmas he starts trying to wake everyone up around five and begins howling around seven and i kid you not he will open his presents like a five or six year old and excitedly run around with a toy or treat for a minute before looking for the next present one year we had less than five things for him to open so he stole a present from me the image you created in my head is so dang cute my cat taught herself to fetch and hugs my arm for attention she learned that when i tap twice on a surface i want her there she follows me around because i give her hugs and food she also knows that she shouldn't go outside she was astray and stays clear of accidentally open doors now mine was a stray too trained to come on comand he always obeys but talks back so much he can never just comply he has to talk and talk while he does it he also prefers rubs to treats my stray is allowed outside so long as he has his harness also stays on my shoulders when going out and lose car writes i'm a dog person but love this dude my dog is afraid of the smoke alarm after a while he discovered the toaster could set the alarm off if toast burned so he became scared of the toaster eventually he figured out the noise the bread bag made as it preceded the toaster noise so he became scared of that eventually he figured out the kettle turning and usually accompany the bread bag noise so he became scared of that now we have just reached the point that he has figured out the time of day we go into the kitchen to turn on the kettle and open the bread bag so he has scheduled his fear to that i am always blown away how he has been able to figure all this out not sure if it is really that smart but it impresses me remus usually uses his brains for evil but he's remarkably good at knowing when i have nightmares and waking me up often before i realize that the nightmare is happening he sleeps right next to me and always has to be touching me with his paw so that he knows when something is up best cat ever he's also remarkable at knowing when i'm depressed and need to get moving out of the house go do something i've got a housemate who's allergic to cass so he stays in my bedroom or with me in my office while i'm working and if he notices i'm spending too much time laying in bed he'll go scratching meow at the door and generally making a ruckus to get me up moving and working what's even neater is he somehow knows the difference between me chilling because i'm on vacation or have the flu or something and won't bother me then [Music] where to begin with this question my pup knows that she's not allowed in the kitchen so she assumes that the cat isn't allowed either of course when he inevitably goes in there she'll run over and either do a quiet bark or nudge my feet until i'll look at her and she'll hurt me towards the kitchen to tattletail same goes when the cat is scratching on furniture he's not supposed to be or meowing can't think of anything else at the moment but this definitely isn't the only example i'm surprised your cat hasn't already taught her that snitches get stitches my cat was displeased to be shut out of the bedroom when one of us was playing with the akula's rift so she scaled the laundry rack to the top of the bathroom door jumped from there to the roof window ambled across the roof and dropped down into the bedroom through the other open window then jumped on my husband's lap he was rather surprised as you can imagine she was six months old at the time my cat wanted to join me the bath once i locked it downstairs it did a beatles and came in through the bathroom window during my teens i had a cat and a dog the dog door that led outside had a door that we could close and lock with a latch the cat learned how to not only shut the door but lock it as well so she started locking the dog outside when he went out he was a cowardly dog so really she just had to sit inside in front of the door and he'd be too nervous to come back in he just needed some courage my 16 year old dog knows my two puppies can get up the stairs but won't go back down so when they are annoying him by trying to get him to play he will play for a few seconds to get them to chase him then run straight upstairs with them following as soon as they are up he turns round and walks downstairs before going back to sleep he also uses an angled mirror in my room to spy on the stairs from his basket you can tell he knows it is a reflection and not the real thing because if you gesture for him to come from the top of the stairs he will run straight round the corner to you and not to the mirror i had a cat named buddha and i'd had him for about three years i noticed that there was pee in the toilet so i asked my boyfriend if he'd stopped flushing or what then one day we were both in the bathroom and he said what is buddha doing buddha was on the toilet peeing into it he must have learned from watching me i never taught him he only peed in there no poop but it was the funniest thing i have a picture of it because no one believed me god i miss him he became enlightened when my dog doesn't want to be outside she pretends to pee she makes eye contact with me while she squats to pee only she isn't very good at pretending to pee for a convincing amount of time she will do it for about one second then she gets excited and as a good girl jumps and spins and acts like it's time to come back inside my ferret knew he was supposed to poop before we'd let him out of the cage but at one point he learned to fake it he'd back into the corner of the litter box scrunch down even flex the usual muscles then trot over to the door to be let out fooled me quite a few times before i caught on he did a very convincing job my dog has crap on the floor and casually placed my husband's underwear over it stolen the cat treats bag and hid it behind the entertainment center has been the only dog to break out of his boarding kennel find his own bag and walk around the front waiting for a walk he's a dong but such a sweet baby come a crap on the floor and casually place my husband's underwear over it why why yeah it was the dog i swear he even put those skid marks in there too i had a service dog a few years ago at the time i was staying with my mother for the weekend because i was in between leases on apartments that being said jude one day decided he will jump into my mother's lap and then pour at her face something he'd never done before and he ended up scratching a good size cut on her upper lip close to the nose how was this worryingly smart the skin looked strange to my mother and me she made an appointment at the doctor's office and we found out she had skin cancer in that exact spot my mother ended up having surgery to remove the cancer as of today all is well my mother is doing fine jude is still a good boy and gets lots of love for what originally thought was him being a brat before we moved overseas we gave our cat to a family friend who lived 100 miles away our cat went missing and was found some time later on the opposite side of a divided highway from our exit he was so close but he couldn't figure out how to cross over without getting hit this was no straight shot either he went missing in montauk ny and was found in westchester which some of you will recognize means he walked across the entirety of new york city i have two russian blue cats that hate each other one has a crinkle toy that it loves long story short the other cat took her poor and crinkled the toy three times then walked slowly behind the corner to wait for the other cat to come into the room so she could beat the pee out of her my cat learned how to turn on the television more importantly the cat has a favorite show so my daughter would come home from school and if she had a good day i'd let her watch television as she had her afternoon snack she invariably chose cute cat videos on youtube she would sit on the couch with our cat next to her and both of them would watch with full attention one day while my daughter was at school i heard the tv turn on by itself i got up to investigate and i saw the cat standing on the couch mashing its paws on the remote looking at the tv then looking back at the remote to mash buttons i realized that the cat wanted to watch cute cat videos even though his human wasn't home yet when i turned on youtube to do just that the cat settled down and watched attentively the cat will now occasionally come to me my wife or my daughter dragging or batting the remote across the floor when he wants to watch tv back when i was a kid my family had an incredibly intelligent cavalier king charles spaniel she had somehow managed to learn several dozen different words to the point where we could tell her to go find certain people to wait for us in certain rooms or to pick up specific items from her collection of about 15 different toys this dog would even obey remarkably detailed commands combining those elements like go get your hedgehog then bring it to dad in his office suffice to say she was a damned remarkable pet now this dog's favorite toy was a little stuffed animal that was vaguely shaped like a human which we referred to as her baby she would wrestle with it tote it around the house and keep it right next to her whenever the family will gather to watch a movie or something after a year or so of such adventures though the toy started to get a little bit worn out so my mother decided to replace it in an effort to surprise the dog she discreetly put the old baby in the garbage then stood in the middle of the living room with the new one behind her back kod my mother called the dog's name was kod though we pronounced every letter kod come here as expected the dog came bounding into the room a happy spring in her step where's your baby go get your baby everyone expected the dog to approach the corner where her toys were kept discover the item was missing then mount a search for it but she'd done similar things in the past after all with hide and seek being one of the many games she seemingly enjoyed but rather than behaving as anticipated kod trotted over to the trash compactor and started pressing on its foot pedal with her paws she wasn't heavy enough to get the thing open but the intention was clear enough in the end kod wound up with two babies tl dr clever canine counters caper if you are new to the channel you can subscribe i publish new videos every day until then check another video so bye for now
