Cats and Animals: Sorry Mr Whiskers

Sorry Mr Whiskers

By Brody89 - 09/04/2014 18:40 - United States - Vancouver

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

Today, I ignored my cat's incessant meowing, and pushed him away every time he wanted to be petted. The next time I walked downstairs I found him dead. 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 took my cat to the vet. He said he felt a strange lump that could be serious. I got really upset and picked her up, crying. The vet then told me I had to put her down. Absolutely devastated by having to euthanize my cat, I passed out. He meant I had to put her back on the table. FML

Say sorry to Mr Whiskers!

Today, I awoke to my cat sitting on my chest. That wouldn't be so bad if I hadn't tried to get her off. She promptly went crazy and scratched me. My fiancée, who was sleeping next to me, hit me, called me cruel, and told me to apologize to the cat. I did. FML

Today, I had to put my 17 year-old cat down. I cried the whole way up to the vet's office and back. After finally coming to terms with the situation, and trying to forget, my dad's friend walks up to me and says, "So, I heard you killed your cat?" FML

Sorry little buddy

Today, my cat sat on me, 30 minutes before I had to go to work. When I picked him up almost immediately after he got comfortable so I could get ready, he looked and sounded absolutely crushed. FML

NEVER JOKE ABOUT FLUFFY

By Sheepiebeepie - 11/08/2017 04:30

Today, at the end of a 15 hour shift, my girlfriend and her friends played a "prank" on me by texting me from a random number saying my cat got hit by a car. I immediately burst into tears and lost it in front of my colleagues. My cat is fine. My relationship is the real joke. FML

Weird reason

Today, my girlfriend furiously bitched me out because I got more upset about my phone screen cracking than when she told me about the death of her cat. We hadn't even met when her cat died. Did she expect me to burst into tears from hearing the story? Guess who's single again… FML

Today, I was Skyping with my girlfriend. I was incredibly tired and just wanted to go to bed, but she just kept talking and wouldn't let me go. I ended up blurting out, "Your mom's a cunt." just to start a fight and have an excuse to hang up on her. I feel like an asshole. FML

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

This seriously makes me want to cry. Not because you were rude to him in his last moments but because it's just really sad he died like that :'( I have a soft spot for cats.

Don't blame yourself, OP. Sometimes things happen and the timing is just horrible. Gentle hugs to you. I hope you're getting the comfort and love you need right now. Take care and remember the good times.

Wow this is one heart breaking fml! I can't even imagine how upset I'd be if I was in the same position as you but you really had no idea that would happen, and if she lived that long you obviously took very good care of it. Don't be upset by a few moments instead think about the years of happiness together.

I feel for you since I had a similar experience. I'm going to hug my dog a few extra times when I get home.

I have to remember with older pets that they are like someone in their 90s or 100 even and rather frail. They need more tender loving care and probably startle really easily.

Maybe it was just a coincidence. 14 human ears means a lot, @ 75 in cats years. Living this much means it had lived a good life. It came to you while you were skyping to say farewell.

Oh wow :(. Poor kitty. You couldn't have known, though. So sad. If you can, it would be an honor to his memory to donate to an animal shelter. Don't feel too guilty about it.
