Sorry Mr Whiskers

Today, my overly-attached 14-year-old cat wanted attention while I was in a heated Skype argument with my girlfriend. Worked up from the fight, I raised my voice and said, "Not now, go away!" He ran to his little bed, had a heart attack and died. I was a complete dick to my cat in his last moments. FML

This is probably the most awful FML I've ever read. I'm sorry about your cat, OP :(

I'm so sorry for your loss. If it brings any consolation, i bet he had the best 14 years of his life living with you.

What? Is a dead cat? That's so wrong. If that's what you're implying then this is the wrong place to do so, especially when OP is more than likely mourning. You don't have to like cats but you don't need to be a jerk either.

Why do people think cats are shit pets? You can do a lot with cats. They are friendly, cuddly animals that are really affectionate, and catnip is the funniest thing.

I never got to have a pet cat because when my dad was younger he had a pet cat that would sit on the fridge all day & attack anyone who came near it (even family)

#228 it's not a lack of humour being the problem, it's where you're saying your humour, saying "only a good cat is a dead cat" in the comments of someone's cat dying is like saying a terrorist joke at a 911 memorial! (Hopefully that comparison isn't too offensive, if it gets rejected then I'll post a different comparison. Again, sincerest apologies) It's not the right place to say such things or do such actions!

#14...Whoa dude. There is a time and place. I understand (kind of) that you're trying to be humorous, but this is not the place to do so. This person is really hurting right now. Have you never lost someone important to you? If not, try to imagine how it feels. It's not the best feeling in the world, and it does not make it any better for someone to make a joke out of it. Not cool, man. Not cool. Whether it is meant as a joke or not, think about what you are saying, and whether or not it is appropriate.

#311 This is actually the place to do so. That is the entire point of the web site.

You didn't know something like that was going to happen, it wasn't your fault. It was just bad timing. Don't beat yourself up. Sorry for your loss. :(

i clicked both tbh...sorry for your loss

Really? Why would you hit YDI? It wasn't OP's fault that he yelled, when you're mad, you normally have a tendency to do things you regret, to add on that, the stress from the issues with his girlfriend along with his cat dying before his eyes is absolutely heartbreaking. I'm probably going to get downvoted for my temper, but whatever, I felt i needed to point it out

well hey you never meant it to happen OP, you know you loved your cat and I'm sure that he knew that you loved him as well as long as you know you never meant it, in that way, then I'm sure your car would understand and always love you no matter what

Oh my god.. That really breaks my heart. T-T Hope you and your g/f patch things up but dear lord.. Poor baby (cat). RIP your kitty. <3

Aww, I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Double hard times. I'm sure he knew you loved him. And I hope everything is ok with your girl!

You couldn't have known, OP. Very sorry for your loss.
