A lot of people go to work or school each day, leaving pets behind until returning. Most come back to find things just as they left them. But others come home to discover their pet wasn’t on its best behavior. Some of the things they find are funny while others are horrifying.

As these 75 photos show, some people have really naughty animals although they still love them just the same.

1. It wasn’t us

The look of innocence…sort of. Even before going inside the house to do an inspection, this owner could tell these two were up to no good. But with adorable faces like these, there’s no way they could mad…unless they destroyed their new sofa.

2. Dead give-away

You know, this dog might’ve gotten by with his bad deed if for just one small oversight. Licking his lips with the food trash lying around blows his cover wide open.

3. Mine…all mine

This cute kitty found some sausages and no matter how nice the owner pled to get them back, she wasn’t going to hand over her stash. And by the look in her eyes, she means business.

4. A beautiful day at the lake…

…until the dog almost drowned his young human. While this incident happened away from home, it’s just too funny not to include. It seems as though this pup isn’t too fond of water.

5. Mystery solved

Upon returning home, this family repeatedly found their small dog damp. While at the house one day, the owner stepped inside for no more than five minutes. This is what they discovered.

6. Oh, the shame

It was bad enough this little guy wasn’t watching where he was going, only to run over his big furry sister. But then his owner made him wear this ridiculous sign and posted it on social media.

7. They were just having a little bit of fun

What’s so bad about an innocent pillow fight between two dogs? Well, a lot. We’re not sure if these pup’s owners sat down and cried, yelled, or rolled on the floor in laughter. We’re hoping it was the latter.

8. Busted red-handed

It seems this dog owner has a kleptomaniac in the house…and they just got busted in the act. But the best part…just look at those eyes. He’s trying to quickly come up with a reason why his paw is in the purse.

9. Thanks a lot

After catching their dog doing this, they had to make a last-minute change to the menu for Thanksgiving Day dinner. Or at least we hope they did. Otherwise, that’d be pretty gross to eat.

10. We’re just playing…really

At first, this owner thought their cats were in a serious fight. But then one looks up to ensure them it’s just a game. What do you want to bet as soon as their human walked out of the room, the fight…we mean playtime…continued?

11. Uh oh

These cats have some major explaining to do. In all fairness, they were probably just testing out the new blinds their owner had just hung. They wanted to make sure they were strong and sturdy. The results…they’re not

12. The dog ate my homework

That’s the oldest and lamest excuse ever for not turning in schoolwork on time. But as it so happens, this dog did just that. Maybe after seeing this photo, the teacher gave the student a second chance.

13. Not having it

Someone’s not too happy to learn that his family was planning a vacation without him. If they thought for a second he was going to go to a boarder, they’d better think again. He’s standing his ground on the subject.

14. Coming to this pup’s defense

Since firefighters are often gone from the firehouse for lengthy periods, we’re going to stand up for this adorable girl. She tried her hardest to wait but when nature calls, well, you know.

15. “Here’s Johnny”

Either this owner was extremely mad or they felt honored to have a dog that missed them this much. But a little word of advice, the next time you leave home, find a better place to keep this fellow.

16. A sense of accomplishment

After destroying a bean bag chair, this pup seems quite pleased with the results. After a lot of hard work, she’s relaxed in her bed, ready to show her owner what she did all day. We’re sure they’re impressed.

17. Smile and they won’t notice

With an adorable face like that, we get the feeling this beautiful girl gets by with a lot of things. Seriously, with that smile and those squinted eyes, how could anyone get mad at her?

18. Just taking a bath

The bath this pup got inside the house wasn’t good enough. So, he decided to take one outside to show his owner the proper way of doing it. There, that’s much better.

19. Hugging my best friend

When this individual came home, they caught their dog giving the cat a hug. Or at least that’s what she wanted them to believe. But with a guilty expression like that, you have to wonder.

20. Nothing going on here

At first glance, nothing seems out of the ordinary. But just a few minutes later when this pup’s owner turned away, he was digging a huge hole in the backyard. No problem, he’ll just lay on top of it and they’ll never know.

21. Alright then

After finding the cat like this, her owner understands why she’s always picking little white hairs off her clothes. On another topic, this can’t be comfortable. Can it?

22. Why, just why?

It’s common for dogs to destroy various things in a home. You know, toilet paper, furniture, shoes. But what did all of these sunglasses every do to this pup? Let’s hope there wasn’t a pair of Oakley’s in the mix.

23. Finding a warm bed

Hey, this dog was cold so he got resourceful. Perhaps his owners need to invest in an actual dog bed or set the thermostat to a higher temperature when they’re gone. Just saying.

24. There goes dinner

Just a little piece of advice. If you have a large dog or even a small one that’s super smart, don’t leave meat on the counter to thaw while you’re gone. If you do, you might as well plan to order take out.

25. He knows

This bunny might be super cute but he knows very well to stay off the furniture. So, when his owner found him on the sofa, he gave them this look. “Yeah, yeah, I know. I’ve heard it before but when you’re not home, it’s my castle.”

26. It’s not what she wanted

This dog’s owner was nice enough to buy their baby a new bed. After all, she’s getting up in age and they wanted her to be comfortable. While it was a kind gesture, we get the feeling she had her eye on something different.

27. Getting a drink

Just imagine walking into your kitchen to see this? First, that’s one smart kitty. Second, her owners might want to make sure she has a bowl of water before they leave the house. If not, she’ll keep resorting to this.

28. Oh, so pretty

After watching her owner apply lipstick for years, this sweet girl thought perhaps it would enhance her looks, too. We have to admit, that’s a nice color choice.

29. A healthy choice

This dog must know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. At least he chose cereal that’s high in fiber and loaded with nutrients. Sorry, but those kibbles and bits just weren’t cutting it.

30. Ruined surprise

As an experienced kneader, this kitty wanted to surprise his owner with a delicious cake. But no, she had to come home early and ruin everything. Thanks a lot Mom.

31. That was a close call

According to this pup, he heard a strange noise coming from the trash can and went to inspect. That’s when he spotted a scary monster and scared it away. That’s his story and he’s sticking to it.

32. ROFL

After returning home, this is what her pet’s looked like. From what it appears, this person knows something’s broken but just hasn’t found it yet. These two need to come up with better facial expressions the next time they’re naughty.

33. Who’s the culprit

While some horses are extremely smart, we don’t think any have the intelligence level to pull this off. This time, the blame goes to a human…but the owner of this horse just doesn’t know who…yet.

34. Pleading the fifth

If we were this dog, we’d being doing the same thing. As a matter of fact, we might go as far as to contact an attorney. With a mess like this, there’s a good chance this pup will need all the support he can get.

35. True identity

Not in a million years did this dog’s owner think her pet was living a double life. But come to find out, she is. On a side note, she’s pretty good at that pole dancing thing.

36. Too much WWE

These two cats tried really hard to convince their human they were practicing wrestling moves. Somehow, we’re not buying it and we don’t think their owner did either. We think it’s time this human leaves the television on a different station.

37. What a shock

Either this dog was hungry and decided to help himself to whatever was in the fridge or he got hot and was merely trying to cool down. Regardless, this was probably a shocking sight to the pup’s owner.

38. Hate it when that happens

This kitty was in the need for some love…yep…that kind. Without another cat in the house, he had to make do with what he could find. Unfortunately, his owner walked in at the most inopportune time. So embarrassing.

39. So sneaky

We have no idea if this kitty wanted frozen fish or ice cream out of the freezer. But now, her owner understands why all the freezer food was getting soft. We’d say it’s time for some kind of door lock.

40. Still learning

From the looks of it, this pup learned how to get chips out of the kitchen cabinet. But what she hasn’t learned is how to hide the evidence before her humans arrive home. Poor thing.
