AceShowbiz - Former child star Frankie Muniz has been left "devastated" after suffering severe flooding at his home in Scottsdale, Arizona thanks to his pet cat.
The "Malcolm in the Middle" star, 32, took to Twitter on Thursday, November 15 to share his heartbreak after his belongings were ruined during a short trip out of town to attend a family funeral.
"I arrived home from my uncle's funeral to find 4 (stories) of my 5 story brownstone home under 3 feet of water," he wrote.
I arrived home from my uncle's funeral to find 4 of my 5 story brownstone home under 3 feet of water. Everything I own, destroyed. Every wall, piece of artwork, personal photos, furniture... All because my cat accidentally turned on a sink a few days ago while we were gone.

I'm devastated and exhausted from a tough week with the loss of my Uncle Skip, 45 hours of travel to and from France to walk in to find this disaster. I've cried more yesterday and today then my whole life combined. Forgive me for venting.. I just need some support.

Muniz also thanked his girlfriend for helping him come to terms with the turn of events, which forced the couple to check into a nearby hotel, but even that stay hasn't been without drama.
Just woke up to fire alarms and had to evacuate the hotel we are staying in because of what happened to our house. This has been an eventful week.
