When animals attack! Except, this is in reverse. More like, when people beat the living piss out of animals with a Wii remote. Innocent girlfriend Bobi explains...

"My boyfriend and I just bought a Wii and new leather furniture. While my boyfriend and I were playing Wii, our roommates's cat, Cracker, jumped up and clawed the back of the new furniture. My boyfriend went to grab Cracker by the scruff of the neck and toss him off so he wouldn't hurt the furniture. Unfortunetly, my boyfriend forgot that the Wiimote was attached to his wrist. When he grabbed Cracker, the Wiimote did a complete 360 around his wrist and smacked Cracker on the leg.

Cracker was limping and whining, so we called the vet and after x-rays found out that Cracker needed surery for a broken leg. The ball inbetween his joints had to be removed and fitted with one the vet had made for him.

A partially shaved cat, stitches ,an Elizabethan collar, and $512.00 later, Cracker is on a six week road to recovery and will be good as new afterwards. The Wiimote is undamaged, as for our household Wiitards, well let's just say wii are a lot more observant."

Cracker seems to be shaking it off ok. Five hundred bucks for hip replacement seems a little much though. Last time I checked you could replace the whole damn cat for a lot less than that.

More pet damage and once again this is actually damage, not just a flimsy story. Some people just say they hit the cat, but these folks actually did structural damage to their cat. Dana explains...

"The first Wii catastrophe struck our home in Cheyenne, Wyoming the first day we purchased our Wii. The poor unsuspecting victim was our cat Mia. She leaped off the couch and darted across our bowling lane and collided with my fierce swing and the Wii controller. Thinking she was okay we carried on playing our game and shortly thereafter noticed our controller had one heck of a gouge in it. We immediately turned to the poor cat that stood at the top of the stairs leering down at us. I hit her right in her mouth, in fact, I broke her K9. Of course, this happened at 10:30 at night and we had to wait until morning to seek medical attention. I arrived at the vet being welcomed with many grins and giggles and employees asking if she was the Wii kitty. Vet bill $182.70 to extract remaining parts of her tooth." -Dana

Dana from Cheyenne has a cool story, but I'll admit part of the allure for me is that the story comes from Cheyenne. I don't know how many of you have been there but it's a cool town. You see, it's the capital of the state of Wyoming, and it still only has about 500 people living there. Five hundred people and a partially toothless cat.

We've managed to have a pet story thrown our way every now and again, but they are usually just a picture of some guy's dog that was taken three years ago and they have no damage to display whatsoever. This sort of behavior is lame to me. Jason however, actually did bruise his dog's eye and that perked me right up. I'll let him share...

"During a recent game of Wii Sports I was going through all the different sports trying to increase my ratings. My dog sat and watched in confusion as to what I was swinging my arm around for in the middle of the living room. Well I get to my third game of bowling, last frame...and have the best game so far going for me. I swing my arm back and BAM!! I had not noticed my dog had gotten behind me on the couch and was right in the path of my back swing. Needless to say I gave my dog a black eye, she yelped for awhile!!!" -Jason

Swank eh? A bruise to the pet. The only other thing that would graduate this post from unusual to totally unique, would be if Jason had done something truly crazy. I'm talking really crazy. Like use the correct number exclamation points crazy. Frankly I've never seen an email that used only a single exclamation point after an emphatic sentence, but deep down I still believe there is one out there. Somewhere...

Similar to our rabbit submission from days gone by, this one too involves a small mammal that was on a mission to stop the fun from happening. Ed tells us about it...

"I was playing Castlevania 4 on the VC with my buddy Zach the other night while I let my gerbil (named "G-Money") run around my room for exercise. At the time we didn't notice anything was amiss since we were using a classic controller, and at the end of the night G-Money returned to his little gerbly home. The next day when I turned my Wii on the buttons on my wii-mote responded fine, but for some reason there was no curser hand. I peered over to my sensor bar only to see that the cord had been gnawed in half, and I gave my gerbil friend a stern talking to. Attempts to reconnect the cable have been fruitless, although the 2 candles setup will hold me over till I grab a 3rd party wireless sensor bar. -Ed"

Frankly I'm at a loss of words for Ed. I don't know whether to make fun of him for naming his gerbil "G-Money" or to just attack him for owning a gerbil period. Part of me wonders if Ed is right now in the process of setting his TV screen on fire with those candles.

This bunny's got an attitude. The owner of said hare told us it took to chomping on her Wii Remote cord. Frankly this whole thing reminds of the time when [[insert obvious raving rabbids joke here]], woo! hoo! was that ever funny. Anyway, let's have our girl Josephine tell us all the story...

We have a bunni, he gets to run around the house as all bunnis should. While I left my other half playing tennis on our wii he was so engrossed in the gama that he didn't see sweep (said bunni) wanted to "help out". Here are some pics of the damaged caused by our helpful bunni.

The moral of this story is never let your bunni play video games.

Oh and what a wonderful moral for a story that is. I think we could reword that into "bunnies are best served with a mushroom sauce", but we'll stick with Josephine's version for now.

Personally I think it's a little bit risky to antagonize Dobermans, but this fella didn't seem to think so. You see TV's and lampshades don't get angry and come bite you when you hit them with things. This particular user got a free pass from the teeth and claws tornado.

"I was recently playing Baseball on Wii sports with a few friends over. A few hours in, on an epic pitch to see if I could break 95Mph, I accidently had the mindset of actually throwing a ball. The wii remote slipped from my hands, snapped the wrist cord, and flew out of my room's open door (Thank the lord it didnt break anything.) and into my hallway where it slammed into my pet doberman pitcher. It hit her in the butt, and all it really did was wake her up, shes tough. The remote still works fine, no damage to it.

Funny thing is... a few days ago I was making fun of the stories of wii remotes leaving peoples hands. Now I know. Lol. I ended up just tieing a square knot with the broken cord and reattaching it. Its so worthless that Im sure that the break wont make a difference. -mark"

Mark, if I was your dog I probably would have bit you back. That just goes to show you what a loyal pet you have there. Just to see if my pet was that loyal, I thought about beaning my goldfish with my Wii Remote, but then I decided just to hang on to it and play another ten frames of bowling in a calm and rational manner.
