Today, I painted my daughter's bedroom. When I wasn't paying attention, the cat walked through the paint tray. There are now Barney purple paw prints all over the house. FML

Today, I finished painting my living room. I had to leave the house in a rush. When I got home, I found smears of paint all around and the carpet crusted with paint that had dried. My cat had rubbed up against the walls and tracked it around. FML

Today, I came home from work to find my five year old daughter drawing unicorns on the wall. The same wall that I had to repaint last week because it had puppies on it. FML

Today, I finished a painting I'd spent 3 weeks working on for an exhibition. When I came back from lunch, my cat was perched above it on my desk. He looked at me, then down at the painting, then jumped down onto it. He slipped and smeared the wet paint everywhere, ruining the whole thing. FML

Today, I ran into my infant daughter's room because I thought I heard her crying, and found she was still sound asleep in her crib. The screams were coming from the mouse our cat was using to paint her bedroom walls. FML

Today, while I was painting, my little nephew came in and started watching me. I left to clean my brushes. When I came back into the room, my nephew had spilled paint all over the carpet making a rainbow. It took me 5 hours to clean it up. FML

Today, I was painting my bedroom walls, when I was struck with an uncontrollable bout of diarrhea. I had to watch helplessly from the en-suite bathroom as my 2 year old daughter painted a lovely picture for me, all over my new $500 sofa. FML

Today, I mopped all the floors in my house. When I was finally done, I accidentally knocked over an open bottle of soda. My cats took this as a perfect opportunity to chase each other around, step in the soda, and track sticky paw prints everywhere. FML

Today, I went to check on my 2 year-old daughter in her playroom, since she was being awfully quiet. I walk in to see her finger painting with her own feces on her kiddie table. FML

Today, I left the living room for 3 minutes to make a coffee. When I went back, my 4-year old had found a permanent marker, God knows where, since I don't own a permanent marker. She'd then drawn on her face, the carpet, wall, sofa, both dogs and as an added bonus the TV screen. FML

Today, I got home to the smell of permanent marker and the discovery that my roommate's little sister had drawn flower petals around every polka dot she could reach on my walls. I just put up the wallpaper last weekend. FML

Well you shoulda payed more attention or closed the door with the cat outside of it. Think a lil' bit, OP.. that's why God gave you a brain! DUH.

Take some of your own advice. Painting in an enclosed area (like a room with the door shut) isn't a very good idea. Unless you enjoy inhaling paint fumes and passing out. And cats are stealthy creatures. It would be kind of hard to do a good job painting while constantly looking out for a sneaky cat.

Haha!!! I feel your pain!!! As I was pregnant and painting the last coat on a dresser for my son, my cat jumped up, slid across the fresh dark green paint, leaving streaks across the length of the dresser, through all three layers of paint with little green kitty prints through the house. I hope you had better luck getting yours out!!!

I should add... in the same week, my parents were sprucing up their house...Their 180lb dog got a hold of a paint can that had been properly stored. She dislodged the top of the can, spilled the paint, rolled around in it and happily ran through the house. She's so big that she had to be taken to the car wash to be cleaned.
