Some pets can be incredibly dumb.
I mean we all like to think that our pets are Albert Einstein of their times but that is usually not correct. I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes but they usually sniff their own butts and don’t know where to to poop. Although I can’t really blame them for that since human babies do the same. However, there are times when we are surprised by our dog’s or cats’ reactions to a situation. I am sure you have read stories about how a cat saved a child or a dog to protect someone from hypothermia. I can safely say that nobody can be as loyal as a pet when it comes to it.
So when a Reddit user asked people to share the creepiest and the most intelligent thing their pets have done that absolutely surprised them, many people had stories to share. We might like to overestimate our beloved’s pet intelligence but this time it seems their owners underestimated it by quite a lot. And you can read all of the best stories by scrolling below and taking a look for yourself.
