Our cats usually just pick the nearest surface (often the kitchen floor)

My cat will run from the kitchen to throw up on the carpet right beside it, then go back and flop on the floor beside his dish and keep eating like a drunk middle aged man.
I respect the hustle.
Yeah, every cat I've had always make sure to get to carpeted floor if they're going to be sick and avoid puking on anything I'm trying to place in front of them to avoid it ending up on the carpet. Can't get sick on the easy to clean tiles.
I wonder if they instinctively feel as if it's grass or something, and so they don't want to leave puke out in the open
Some post grad must have done a study on this.
Hey, I don’t do that when I puke.
Our cat isn't the brightest bulb in the box, she freaks out when she's about the puke and tries to run away from it, leaving a trail of vomit in her wake.
One of ours picks the nearest rug and leaves a puke trail down it.
The other finds the nearest elevated furniture surface and pukes off the edge, the last time this one did this she managed to puke all down an old wooden chest and straight into a good pair of shoes.
Brah my cat did this to me yesterday but instead of the bed it was the dining room mat, fucker was less than 1 metre from an open door....
I love that last frame
Captures that cat mid-puke face just amazingly. True art.
I'm glad they don't do it on my bed, but my cats will leave the tile floor and go yak on carpet 100% of the time.
When my cat was around 17-20 he stopped getting up to puke. Before he hated being anywhere near his puke but at some point it just changed
It's a cat, it's not like it's going to hold it in for next time it goes walkies
Did you miss the fact that the cat went to puke in one of the worst places?
