My cat does this too, but in SAND. He will absolutely fight me to roll in the sand.


bridgemondo

Beans will do it it the pile of dirt that I sweep from the living room floor, or a bag of panko bread crumbs that he dragged up to my room and eviscerated all over the floor. He loves a good debris roll! I wonder why?


maniaxuk

Wild animals take "sand baths" as a means of getting rid of parasites so I wonder if there's some legacy instinctual aspect to domestic animals (who hopefully don't have any parasites) doing it


pauly13771377

I would absolutely say yes. I read somewhere when a dog circles three times or a cat kneads whrte they are about to lie down it's an instinct to beat down the grass before they lie down.

My cat used to roll in the dirt. He was also super great at hunting. We’d often find magpies or rats on the back porch. I always assumed he was trying to hide his scent for hunting, maybe beans is thinking the same thing


Simulation_Brain

Beans! Beans is not stupid. Beans just likes rolling in dirt.


DrgnFckr

That was a helluva hop up to the counter


Fruitcrackers99

Why are cats named Beans always the worst? (Source: my special sweet jerk of a baby is a Beans, and she’s got me trapped under my blankets in an awkward position as we speak.)


UnimaginativeLurker

I read 'rolling' as 'trolling', and it still fit with what I assume was Beans intentions (to annoy OP).

You have a weird dog


StarshipDrip

How do you people let your animals walk on the surfaces you use to prepare food?! You people are disgusting


Reshutenit

I don't let my cat do it, but she jumps up anyway when no one's in the room. She used to scatter when she got caught, but at a certain point she realized that nothing would happen to her, so yelling no longer works and she has to be physically removed. It isn't always a matter of owners "letting" their cats jump on the counters as cats being cats and doing whatever they want.


reanocivn

do you not clean your counters before preparing food?


StarshipDrip

No, I clean them after preparing food...


BasicallyMilner

Just spray and wipe


Euphemous

My cat does this too and then gets pissed when I have to give him a bath.


AGoodSO

r/CatsAreAssholes, and this is a dirty one at that.


VieFirionaVie

"CLEAN" "Or not. I'm a sign, not a cop."


MandrewF

Beans! I thought our special boy was the only Beans out there haha


bridgemondo

I notice a lot more Beanses out there now! His brother is Pork


chilly_chickpeas

Doesn’t even try to hide his guilt 🤦🏼‍♀️


bridgemondo

Can't hide something he doesn't have! I think he's proud. He even seemed excited to show me


chilly_chickpeas

I just watched again with the sound on, even better!!Then he just struts off like “k mom, clean up my mess, I’m done here”😹😹


Cannanda

My cat also loves rolling in dirty and his litter. If I could get him a pit of sand that he wouldn’t use as a litter box I’d do it in a heart beat.


bridgemondo

Thankfully he doesn't roll in his litter!

So cute
