Death, Cats and Animals: Poor old Raymond…

Poor old Raymond…

By LJ. - 13/03/2009 02:20 - United States

Today, my mother finally had her beloved Siamese cat cremated. The cat has been dead for over a week and she has been keeping it on her bed, stroking its fur and saying, "She looks like she's sleeping" and "She's so cold." To top it all off, she's been calling me by the cat's name for three years. FML

Today, I received an unexpected package from my mother. It contained my cat's ashes. Apparently he died 3 weeks ago and she thought this was the best way to tell me. FML

Today, was my birthday. Today was also the day that my mom's cat died four years ago. She was too busy crying and looking at old photos of her beloved cat to even wish me a happy birthday. FML

Fatal decision

Today, my mom called me an attention seeker and threw a bitch fit because my cat "decided" to die on her birthday. FML

Today, I was sent a letter by the vet, saying my cat was late for her yearly checkup. My cat died last week and I'd had her cremated by the same people who had sent the letter. FML

Her happy place

By RIP - 26/01/2024 13:00 - United States

Today, my 21-year-old cat, who has learned when I go to bed and waits in my bedroom for me every night, was waiting for me as usual last night. She got on top of me and I fell asleep pretty fast. When I woke up, she was still there, so I decided to wait until she moved. It took me an hour to realize she'd died. FML

Today, I've been trying to adopt a cat with little success since my last one died. My other cat, who had grown attached to him when she realized he was dying, has been lazier and more prone to seeking attention than before since he passed away. I now know cats can suffer from depression. I feel bad now. FML

Today, I got my cat stuffed after her death. I brought her home and set her down by my couch. I guess my dog thought it was a new chew toy. FML

Today, my mom asked me to pull out the load of laundry she'd stuck in the dryer. Instead of clothes, I pulled out my dead cat. FML

Reminds me of "A Rose for Emily" by Faulkner. So endearing.

I don't really see a lot of FYL in this. It's sad for your mother. She obviously loved the cat, and I feel sorry for her. You should try a little sympathy.

my heart goes out to your mother. it sucks to loose someone you love. but seriously? keeping its dead body on the bed and petting it? dead animals start to stink after a while. this is all really disturbing. im sorry.

#28: I don't think it is that weird. My favorite rat died a few weeks ago. I keep him wrapped up well in my deep freeze. I should probably go out and bury him this weekend... but it hard to let him go. I loved him very much and he died very suddenly in my arms.

...obviously not real but this is HYSTERICAL and #76, nothing is wrong with that, alot of people actually freeze their dead pets till they are ready to let go or have the actual time for a proper burial...but leaving it in your bed in the heat is a whole different story
