Animals are great! They're adorable, they're fun, they're cuddly, and they just bring a lot of positives to our lives. But sometimes, they can do things that drive us absolutely nuts.

For example, my cat likes to announce whenever she's doing anything. Needs water? Meow loudly her whole way to the water dish, meow at the water dish, meow when she's finished drinking, and meow the whole way back to her bed as loudly as she can.

So, what obnoxious thing does your companion do that you really wish they didn't?

Dog #1 loves to lay on the floor. Usually in spots where we regularly pass through, for example in front of the bathroom door or in front of the living room door. It wouldn't be an issue if she is a small dog, but she is a big dog around 40 kilograms.

Dog #2 is usually quiet, nearly mute. Except when Dog #1 is blocking her way by laying on the floor. Then she gets nervous and starts a mixture of barking and whimpering until she can pass through somehow. I've never heard a dog make such weird ass noises as she does.

Dog #2 also likes to lick everything that gets in her reach, hands, arms, faces, shoes, other dogs.

I have a dog that's a licker too. The worst part is she has a huge slobberly tongue. I'll just be sitting there minding my own business and boom, my arm is soaking wet.
