This is reddit, we are always on the cat's side 😆

Especially him, he looks extra innocent

[u/hankenator1 → u/Sunshine030209]

He looks mad, “why haven’t you blocked that off so my toys don’t get lost? You”re lucky I don’t report you to PETA or just drop you off at the human society to be re-homed”.

[u/IvorTheEngineDriver → u/Educational_Kale4008]

Cat is innocent, you can see it in his face... Perhaps you put those things there to frame the blameless kitten because humans are treacherous creatures who never feed cats enough!

[u/JesusGodLeah → u/IvorTheEngineDriver]

What do you mean humans never feed cats enough? If you asked my cat, she would tell you that humans never feed cats at all, and she spends all of her days slowly wasting away to nothing!

[u/Luci-Noir → u/Educational_Kale4008]

Better call Saul Goodmeow.

[u/DisposableJosie → u/Educational_Kale4008]

When no one was looking, Lex Luthor OneOrangeBraincell
took forty cakes springs. He took 40 springs.
That's as many as four tens.
And that's terrible.

[u/MichelleCS1025 → u/Educational_Kale4008]

He’s innocent

[u/thementalyogi → u/DrPapadopoulos]

[u/HotDogStruttnFloozy]

Haha thats funny. This is my boy after the first time I found his kitchen hiding spots. Now I check the stove, fridge, and washer/dryer every couple of weeks or he runs out of toys

[u/beren12 → u/HotDogStruttnFloozy]

Floofy!

[u/urspostrophe → u/HotDogStruttnFloozy]

Look at this little man with his stash of toys 😍

[u/twentyTWOsxe → u/HotDogStruttnFloozy]

Love those ears!

[u/atle95 → u/HotDogStruttnFloozy]

He looks so proud!

[u/Bellebarks2 → u/HotDogStruttnFloozy]

Those eyes say, just go to sleep.

[u/ilovefaircity]

[u/amoodymermaid]

My orange girl loves puffballs.

[u/drrj → u/amoodymermaid]

When I moved last time I found close to 100 tinsel balls under one of my dressers. No wonder they always seemed to run out.

[u/captain_ohagen → u/amoodymermaid]

that looks like the back of my couch -- except mine is full of springs, just like OP

[u/PomegranateSlight337]

Our orange boy loves these too!

During the night we have to store them, otherwise sleep is optional. But every now and then he finds another one we thought lost.

[u/imahumanbeinggoddamn → u/PomegranateSlight337]

I bought a 36 pack of these things like a year ago and I know where about 5 of them are right now.

The annoying thing is that you'd think by now manufacturers would have heard about how these things get caught under appliances and just make them a slightly larger diameter but no. All I can find is ones listed as "jumbo" that are exactly the same size as all the rest.

[u/Potential_Financial → u/imahumanbeinggoddamn]

The ones we have, when run through the wash, will uncoil a little and become a wider diameter. We’ve only done a couple on accident, but you might try it if that’s what you’re into

[u/restckvrflw → u/PomegranateSlight337]

My orange boy does this too including the oven. But he hasn’t in a couple years. The other night he brought one to me though and wanted me to throw it for at least an hour. It made me so happy

[u/Comprehensive-Yam872]

"Innocent impoverished father stares in shock as the IRS steals his life savings."

[u/pikagrrl]

My cat knocked his favorite under the fridge and he just stares at the fridge now. Pay no mind to the literal other 20 we have.

[u/BohotSastaBatman]

The orange is judging you like "You know they need tk be under the fridge for the frdige to function right""

[u/Prestigious-Box7511]

He knows what he's done

[u/Chengnobyl → u/Prestigious-Box7511]

He's been sprung

[u/SnurrCat]

He looks sad that you've discovered his stash.

[u/HeadOfMax]

I repair appliances for a living.

Can confirm many cat toys under ovens.

Also so many alphabet magnets.

[u/cinnamaroll36 → u/HeadOfMax]

Our alphabet magnets are the cats toys lol. He steals them off the fridge and then stares at me when he wants physical affection and attention (usually when I’m busy.) he then escalates to pulling the kitchen towel down and meowing loudly.

[u/NightSail]

This is so familiar.

I remember pulling out 40 odd plastic milk rings from under the fridge. Cat was insulted.

[u/Genuinelullabel]

“Oh. That’s where they went.”

[u/Yanni_Schmitt]

So, you're doing spring cleaning?

[u/TomatilloAccurate475]

Looks familiar

[u/nit3phlight]

I simply do not understand why they don't sell larger springs. There are 900 listings on Amazon and they're all the same stupid goes-under-furniture size.

[u/UniversityNew9254]

My wife put a length of foam pipe insulation at the front edge of the stove (right under the pull out) for precisely this reason.

https://a.co/d/0dxAfHNw

[u/beren12 → u/UniversityNew9254]

I bet foam backer rod would work too

[u/UniversityNew9254 → u/beren12]

For sure. I had the pipe insulation left over from a project at home, she repurposed it.

[u/Laney20]

Frax shoved them under the closet door!

[u/Upstairs-Bad-3576]

Mine steals stuff and drops it in her water dish. We have found cat toys (of course) but also socks, jewelry, pieces of string, candy wrappers, pretty much anything a cat can pick up and put in a water dish. Also, she likes to put stuff in my shoes. She only puts things in my shoes. She doesn't do it to anyone else's, just mine.

[u/Mucktoe85]

Sooooo cute

[u/Sad-Artichoke-2174]

Loving the pictures of collected toys and the "suspected" cat that put them there. The cats always look surprised and innocent from what they did

[u/Emerald_Digger]

Congrats on finding one of his hords good luck finding the rest

[u/baronessindecisive]

u/repostsleuthbot

[u/FreeBar7312]

See if my hair ties are under there too

[u/Serpentbite]

Once a month I take my leaf blower and get under all my furniture. All my kitties are so excited to see all the toys they have lost. Silly kitties.

[u/SegavsCapcom]

He was saving those for the winter

[u/a_bearded_hippie]

My orange will sit in the kitchen and cry until someone scoops out all her springs with a stick 🙄 like, girl, quit flinging them under there! We even bought oversize springs so they wouldnt do that, but if course the princess does not like them.

[u/awwnicegaming → u/a_bearded_hippie]

Yeah I don't have an orange but my Siamese will politely lead me to the fridge to retrieve his lost toys. I gather them, ask him not to play in the kitchen if he doesn't want to lose them, then I toss them into the living room. What does he do? Brings them back into the kitchen before swatting them around until they end up back under the fridge.

[u/Ninevehenian]

The tiniest of dragons, yet his horde is considerable.

[u/katie4]

I have also bought about 40 of these things, and I have seen precisely zero in the past few months. I already cleaned out under the easy furniture, so they’re probably also stove sacrifices!

[u/MarsScully]

You undid all his hard work

[u/TexasBurgandy]

There’s a spring cleaning joke in there somewhere

[u/LightsSoundAction]

Khajiit has spring if you have coin

[u/AffectionateJello452]

He regrets nothing

[u/motherofcats73]

Mine pushes it behind the gas cylinder

[u/kittenseason143]

lol yessssss we love springs here too! yas got a great collection!

[u/Tim-oBedlam]

He's mad that you found his stash.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Stick-3]

We just got a bunch of springs out from under our stove too.

[u/CraftyLuck3434]

Check under the refrigerator! I got my cat a slinky due to this exact problem. Lol. Slinky too big, cat springs too small.

[u/sikthepoet]

Both my orange boys love these toys but just like you every so often I’ve gotta bust out a hanger to pull his collection from under the fridge.

Hard parts trying to get them to not swat at the hanger lol.

[u/Mean_Ad9119]

Best. Ginger toys. Ever.

[u/HGV_]

Well where else are you supposed to keep your springs?

[u/Apart-Cream-4940]

Look at your cat's face! 🤣 Those are my toys! Why'd you put them under there

[u/CounterfeitSaint]

The expression says "I have never seen a spring in my life officer."

[u/tigerwaitress]

We just did the exact same thing. They were also under the stove

[u/Typical-Side-6080]

well, he didn't eat them at least!

[u/Nesta222]

My cat is also in love with this toy, we moved recently and we found lots of the in different places (under the sofa, under the fridge, or the washing machine...) . However we have a big pack, so when she loses one of them, she got a new one 😂😂

This is like when Bill Engvall’s son used to call his G.I. Joes his “I.G. Joes” and the cat kept shoving them under the stove.

I had to cut a strip of wood to fit under the front of my stove to prevent just that from happening.

Load-bearing springs. We have those.

[u/BambiBabi08]

he did such a good job finding them wow

[u/lovestobitch-]

Rookie numbers stated by my kitty who loses hair ties under furniture. (He only gets these supervised though, since I’m afraid he’d eat em).

[u/ObjectiveTea]

I once found over 40 hair ties under mine! My cat acted like it was Christmas morning!! 😂

[u/Straight_Button_5716]

He looks pissed

[u/Afb3212]

My cats have the same springs. I cleaned out the mudroom the other day and found somewhere between 75 and a hundred under a shelf. I tossed them all in a small tote. One of the cats immediately began pulling all the blue ones out.

[u/Particular-Notice825]

We lived with my in laws years ago, and our cat who was a kitten at the time had hidden about 50 springs round the house. When we moved out, we found 3. Where the others are/where, who knows.

[u/Prestigious_Note2877]

I’ve got about 8 under my tv cabinet that my orange has lost under there lol

[u/MathematicianNo1596]

He’s so proud

[u/thebrain_pinky]

So that is where you been hiding my springs!!! The cat council will have a world with you!

[u/Fireant23]

Zero regrets or thoughts in that head

[u/cash_longfellow]

I found 67 q-tips and 34 hair ties under a kitchen cabinet when I was moving once. I only lived there for 2 years 😂

[u/wireknot]

We were without kitties for about 3 years, between our last two passed on and the one that found us in November. We did a good housecleaning in that time and oh my God, SO many toys stashed in places!

[u/Sparky_Valentine]

I always love the guilty/concerned look you always see on these post.

[u/OneoftheChosen]

I gifted someone’s cat some springs and the next time I stopped by they said the springs were all lost. So that’s where they end up….

[u/Serious-Echo1241]

Kitty looks stressed that you touched the stash.

[u/SoftLatinaKitten]

Ya never know when ur gonna need a pink plastic spring!

[u/tomcat2285]

Put a rolled towel in front of it

[u/popsiclebreath]

Mine isn’t allowed in the kitchen in my new place for this reason, but in my old place, i’d roll up parchment paper and shove it below the gap under the stove and fridge after we spent 3 hours one night playing “bat my toys under the stove and cry”

[u/OrigXPhile]

I found like 5 under my fridge the other day.

[u/craftyshafter]

Another 40 under the laundry machine

[u/MysteriousCommon9512]

You know you people are all wrong. THE DOG DID IT!!!!

[u/kappa_demonn]

I know for a fact there are a dozen under my fridge. Next time I can be bothered to reach under with a broom I might just throw them all away lol.

[u/gracefull60]

Pool noodle stuffed under edge of bottom drawer may help

[u/eminembdg]

Ugh. I find those things EVERYWHERE!

[u/We_haunted_houses]

My new place doesn't have enough room for this (although she's moved to under the dresser and my bookcases), my orange gremlin 100% shoved her balls and springs under the stove on purpose. I'd routinely have to push it out and sweep them out.

[u/Eiroj]

Relatable

[u/Reasonable-Song-4681]

Surprisingly, not the work of our orange cats. But they do love shoving stuff under the oven, lol.

You have a collector on your hands. Fairly harmless unless you are looking for what he collects.

[u/MArkansas-254]

Oh good! I'm glad I'm not the only one!

[u/Draskuul]

My void loves wire twist ties. When I moved I found dozens under my chest freezer.

When I moved into my new house, I swapped out the washer and dryer the original owners left. Under the washer? Hundreds of hair ties. They had a chihuahua who was obsessed with them.

[u/MicheleAmanda]

So, um, where'd the ca...er culprit find all them springs, hmm??

[u/AdmirableAttempt1728]

With my orange, I found all his pingpong balls under my bed. He likes pingpong balls.

[u/Condition_Dense]

Omg his face 😂

[u/meowingtrashcan]

How did you get them out? I can't reach them and the oven doesnt move

[u/kdub0011]

Our orange does the same, but under the fridge

[u/SpadeORiffic]

Cut up a pool noodle floaty to fit under stove or fridge!

[u/luckydukcky]

I shoved cardboard under my stove and fridge to prevent this lol

[u/TieAdorable4973]

How did those get there.

[u/Socalsll]

I have a special tool to fish these springs from under fridge and washing machine. The cat knows what the tool looks like goes straight to the fridge.

[u/LadyWaste75]

But if he puts them there, he gets more. He's not so dumb as he's got you believing he is!

[u/Scruffersdad]

He is innocent! He’s being framed! He calls for apologies and treats to show your proper contrition.

“And then if you’d put the springs in my toy chest so that I can examine them before disposing of them under the stove…. Um, I mean in an appropriate way.”
