Where are all the homeless people in these neighborhoods to claim these discarded mattresses?

From my understanding the cat piss smelling one is still good. All you need is one of those Febreeze air fresheners.

Can’t you just picture the person who made the “seriously?” sign furiously filling in each huge letter with a different color marker?

Could be worse. Could be the “afterbirth mattress” posted on craigslist. Those folks actually wanted $500 for their nasty stained mattress.

I lived in a fourplex at one time and someone had just dumped an old mattress outside in the back yard. One day the landlord asked if I was going to do anything about the mattress I told him no because it wasn’t mine.

Given the bedbug epidemic, I can’t blame the people who refuse to pick up dumped mattresses. I wouldn’t take those mattresses, even if I was sleeping on the floor.

The advertisement on this webpage for me today is for Savvy Rest – a mattress. “Pure. Natural. Made For You.”
The cat piss was also pure, natural, and believe me it was made exclusively for a particular someone. That cat piss is a message. That cat is saying “Fuck You, Fuck the Dog, Fuck the Other Cat, Fuck this House, and most especially Fuck the Litterbox.”
Oh, cats. This is why I love them. So expressive! This morning, my sweet little kitty left me a message on the carpet, right where she knew I’d step in the pre-dawn, uncaffienated hours. It’s how I know she cares.

When the cat pisses on my bed, I sh+t in its litterbox, then I carefully place its food dish squarely in the middle of the litterbox.
I like to escalate the issue.

Reading all of these comments just makes me feel more justified in my dislike of cats. And you people that let your cats roam freely outdoors? I hate you all. Give me all of your addresses so I can send an animal to poop and pee in your yard, yowl outside your window in the wee hours, make your allergies act up, and destroy your garden.
