This effing cat wakes me up at puking out in the hallway one more night again, and I'm taking it to the pound. Freaking once a month thing.

I would consider taking it to a veterinarian instead of the pound. Likely something health wise that is wrong with it.
Yes, was informed tonight that it's one year since we got (two of) the cats...the third one has only been here since Jan.
"Cats are such clean animals", my Aunt Nelly.
I just walk around the "oopsies" in the morning, then tell the boss where they are...picking up front end or back end rejects, I wake up the whole house dry retching, or with my footsteps running when it's not dry.

One of the many reasons I don't have a cat.
Once a month is nothing. That really angers you that much?
Cats get sick, it's normal, usually to clear hairballs from grooming themselves. But the contents and frequency need to be noted because it can be a sign of a major problem.

Cats are nocturnal so they eat at night. If it's hairballs then you need to brush it more often. If it's not hairballs then you need to look at changing out the food to something that's 'grain free". Cats are obligate carnivores so they do not digest grains very well.
If its hair balls, let it lick some bacon grease now and then, or a commercial hair ball remedy.

This.
One cat is too many. Sorry to those that like them, but not a fan.

My previous cat who lived for 21 years did that the last year of his life. My present SKooter (2year old) caughts up a hair ball about once a month for about 2 minutes. Talk to a VET for suggested eating habit change. What you describe is not normal. Ed
My 25 year old long hair cat has always thrown up hair balls. About 1 a week. Used to be more but I changed his food to a different brand that claims to help with hair balls. You can also buy a medicine that you put on their foot and they lick it off.
My short hair cats don't have this problem. My youngest cat Garfield that was born to a ferrel mom then she left him @3 weeks old he over eats. He is obese and often barfs up food from over eating.
Baby cat was a ferrel and is still skittish around people he does not know. Has never had a hairball that I know of.

Good to know. The stuff I bought was In a tube and was like grease.

We have a cat that runs to the litter box and pukes. I was in shock the first time I saw it.

I feel your pain brother. I love my cats, but the puking/peeing when they are sick or distressed can be absolutely maddening.
Just remember that the cat isn't trying to ruin your day, it's trying to tell you something is wrong.

Do you also randomly walk into a Starbucks and announce to everyone that you don't like coffee?

Once a month would be nice, mine does it a few times a week.
She's had tons of tests, is healthy otherwise. She just yaks now and then.
At least the dog cleans up after it. Yuck!
Love cats, though. Such great pets.

I'll take a hairball puke over projectile dog vomiting everywhere anyday! Luckily the times that happened to me was outside on the patio or on the concrete basement floor that has a floor drain.
