Rule #2: Wreak Havoc Now. (Clean it up later.) | Mildly Feral Advice

The Gospel of Havoc
Some cats knock over a plant for fun.
We call that Tuesday.
Rule #2 in the Frankie Said Meow Rules of Living Mildly Feral handbook is simple: if it’s calling to you, do it now. Spill the coffee. Send the risky text. Buy the hat. Flip the laundry table in a fit of theatrical flair. Life rewards the bold- and we reward ourselves with a nap afterwards.
The Cleanup Clause
Do we clean up later? Maybe.
Do we apologize? Almost never.
The trick isn’t about being destructive- it’s about choosing moments that shake the snow globe of life and make something new fall into place.
If the mess is worth the story? Congratulations. You played the game right.
Practical Applications (aka Feral Life Tips)
-
In the kitchen: Make pancakes at midnight. Add sprinkles. Eat the batter off the spatula.
-
At work: Organize a secret snack drawer. Never tell management.
-
In relationships: Send them a meme and then immediately disappear for three hours.
-
At home: Move the furniture around at 2 a.m. See who notices.
Why Rule #2 Works
Havoc is just another word for shaking up the predictable. When we stop waiting for “the right time” to act, we start living. Cats know this. The right time to knock something off the shelf is always “now.”
