Name: Sweet P
Location: Ohio

It's all guerilla warfare practice for La Revolucion!

What makes Sweet P so mean?

It’s her cute look and her endearing personality when near our other kitty, Pepper. She’ll lick Pepper and nuzzle up to her and then just POUNCE on her and chase her all over the house. And yet…..3 years later, Pepper is still falling for it!

Name: Sylvester
Location: LA

You rude human! Point at me, will you?

What makes Sylvester so mean?

Sylvester has a tendency to bite anything that’s shoved in his face so if you poke a finger in his direction you shouldn’t be surprised that he bites it.

Though I don’t care for the taste of human flesh, I will now teach you what happens when you dare point at me.

We have a pair of cat wrangling gloves, purchased at a hardware store (okay, they’re supposed to be work gloves) and putting them on when dealing with Sly results in him redoubling his efforts such that your skin would be ripped off if you didn’t have those gloves on. He’s now learned that if he goes for the arm just above the glove he gets better results (ie loud shouts of pain).

Gloves will not save you.

For all that he’s really a very loving and friendly cat who came to me when some folks moved out of town, back to England, almost 5 years ago.

Name: Sadie (3)
Location: Kansas City, MO

Yeah, I like a rockin’ 2 am – 5 am pee party…what of it?

What makes Sadie so mean?

She looks pretty adorable. But she’s evil.

Sadie is a small kitty, about 6 lbs. She’s stumpy and adorable, her cuteness masks the inner-meanie. Don’t think about approaching her, she will run. Sadie is very particular about her litter box, and if it’s not up to her standards, she pees on my things. When I go out of town, upon returning she immediately pees on my things. If I have company, or if my other cat upsets her, she pees on my things. Those things include, but not limited to – my bed, rugs, laundry, sofa, shoes, etc.

Sadie likes to party between the hours of 2am-5am. She’s very vocal about the good time she’s having. She particularly enjoys meowing as loud as she can while standing on my chest as I sleep. I wake to overturned trash cans with the contents tossed about.

Today I turned my back for 3 minutes to cut up some food, I turned back around to find Sadie and my other cat eating my bowl of steamed peas. A couple months ago, Sadie stole all the meat off my sandwich while I was in the bathroom, leaving the rest on the floor.

As I sit here typing this, she’s sitting next to me with one paw on my leg. That’s about as friendly as she gets. She sure is cute though.

The many mean faces of Synapse

What makes Synapse so mean?

This is my mean kitty, Synapse. She’s not the brightest kitty in the world, and some believe she is possessed by Satan himself. Let’s just say that she has sent me to the emergency room on two separate occasions.

Name: Skippy the Holiday Menace
Location: NC

Next barf stop — the floor vents! I love barfin’ in the floor vents, man.

What makes Skippy so mean?

This is Skippy. He is a little Grinch spreading holiday mayhem throughout the house – namely in the form of barf. The darn cat eats the plastic Christmas tree branches and then proceeds to puke all over the place. He purposely seeks out the most obnoxious and hard to clean spots to leave his not-so-tidy tidings.

To make matters worse, the little hairball will go from barfing to meowing at the top of his lungs for food. We don’t give it to him right away because we don’t want to clean up more barf. Of course that makes him get even more in-your-face loud.

Name: Leo (tabby) and Sammie (black)
Location: Georgia

Quick...let's share the cat tree peacefully for a minute so it ruins the picture she's trying to take for Meankitty!

What makes Leo and Sammie so mean?

From rescue cats to cat-divas! Leo and Sammie don’t like each other one bit and fight over who gets to be the “top cat” on the cat condo. Sammie in particular has had a rough life. He is a tripod and thinks he can use that to his advantage. He loves to bite my head and ears and bat at my nose at 4am because HE WANTS TO EAT. When they get the “midnight crazies” there is no stopping them. And at Christmas time, guess who tries to eat the little decorative tree? Leo! And of course he does it in the middle of the night.

Humans are so judgy! Artificial trees TASTE better as an after-midnight snack.

Location: The North Pole

Christmas Christmas time is here....time to trash and time to sneer!

What makes Spike so mean?

Not only does Spike look a bit like the Grinch, he plays the Grinch as well. For the past three years Spike has taken down the family tree. We’ve tried everything, fishing wire from the tree to various “secure areas” on the wall to constant Spike monitoring. All to no avail. Spike always wins and takes it down. The best part, he struts away after each take down showing absolutely no remorse.

Name: Sam Osama
Location: Ohio

Go away, I’m hiding in my seekrit cave.

What makes Sam so mean?

At the vet’s we call him Sam, but his real name is Osama. Just his name should tell you he’s a mean kitty. We took him in as a kitten (for his own safety) after he kept tearing out screens at his former owner’s house and running across the street (like it’s a playground) to see our other cats. We soon realized what a little terrorist we had taken in. We’ve never had such a wild cat! There was really only one thing to name him. He’s grown from a little terrorist to a bigger, meaner terrorist. His increased size and strength only serve to facilitate his acts of terror, which include:

- Chewing and tearing the toilet paper off the roll.
- Chewing houseplants.
- Eating nameless hunks of crud off the floor.
- Jumping up on the mantle and knocking off whatever he pleases.
- Playing REAL rough. Picking fights with the other cats for the sheer hell of it.
- Eating off our plates.
- Attacking the vacuum cleaner like it’s just a big play toy. No fear.
- Joyously “helping” anyone who comes in to work on the house. Involving himself with loud heavy equipment. Climbing ladders. Fearless.
- Pulling down my tabletop Christmas tree two days in a row. Standing up on his hind legs and just SEIZING it. I finally took it to work to keep it from being destroyed. I’m afraid to get a big tree!
- Grabbing and attacking, with all 18 and the teeth too, any hand that reaches out to pet him (he defines this as play. I have scars.)
- Escaping out the door, running like hell from me, and disappearing. Damn good thing I have an ID tag on him. Some people on the next street, BEHIND his former house, called me one day last summer to say “We have your cat … that’s really his name?”
- Climbing screens. Still tearing out screens. He’s become a real expert! Damn good thing we have central air. Next summer, it’s window grilles!

Name: Sammy
Location: NC

I am NOT a stalker, I absolutely have a legitimate reason to be behind that chair that doesn’t involve spying on younger animals.

What makes Sammy so mean?

There is so much to say about this old fart. At 16 years old (human years), he is the mean grumpy old man all the kids are afraid of. If our dog runs by him, Sam will not hesitate to slap him silly. Since we got our Chihuahua puppy, Sammy has started to get a stalking habit. He has turned from grumpy old man into creepy stalker. He will hide behind the couch and lunge out when he feels that the time is right to attack the puppy. He has already inflicted serious harm to the poor puppy, leaving a fairly good scar on her back from biting her during one successful attack.

The only animal of ours he is affectionate to is our younger cat, Xena, who is by no means a mean kitty. She is the sweetest, most spoiled thing on the planet.

Scram! I’m converting Xena to the ways of the mean!

There are only two situations in which he would be sweet to one of his owners: 1) he wanted us to dig his food out (the automatic dispenser doesn’t work) OR 2) one of us is holding the puppy, and he wants to attack.

Meankitty’s Note: The use of the term “owner” in the previous text was inserted by the human, not the cat. Cats know better.

Name: Sammie
Location: Unknown

It’s not a funny walk, human. What, do you think I belong to the Ministry?? It’s a studly swagger.

What makes Sammie so mean?

This is Sammie. The person who gave him to me told me the idiots he was saved from used to throw him around, leaving him to walk funny. But now he is mine, and I love him, even when he hates me. He loves to go with me when I take the dogs for a walk. Because of this, he has a huge neighborhood territory. Many times I can come walking back from the store and find myself accosted in unexpected places by O-Sammie bin Catden. He will allow you to pet him once on the head very nicely. Anything else, and he will KILL KILL KILL. I love him, yet I fear him.
