Today, I saw a poor helpless cat in the middle of the road while driving. I pulled over and scooped it in my arms to bring it to safety. Not only did I get mauled and scratched by the cat, my car also wasn't put in park and rolled away hitting a parked car. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, while driving, I witnessed the neighbors dog viciously shaking a black cat. So I slammed on the brakes and jumped out of the car, frantically chasing around the huge dog screaming "Help, someone please help!" I finally managed to tackle him and release the cat. It was a stuffed animal. FML

Not the brightest moggy

Today, my cat got outside and had the bright idea to walk in the middle of the road, right as a car was coming. The driver didn't notice him, so I had to sprint over there, leap into the road, and toss my cat to safety. He's fine, aside from being soaked (he landed in a puddle), but I've felt better. FML

Cats and Cars

Today, I had to take my cat to the vet. On the way there, he managed to get out of his cage, climb into the front seat, onto my chest, and howl in my face as I tried to drive down the highway. I ended up with stitches and still got charged for missing my cat's appointment. FML

Today, I swerved to miss hitting a kitten, over-corrected, hit and killed the cat, and totaled my truck by hitting a parked car. FML

Today, I ran over a cat while driving home. I tried to keep myself together but couldn't help but cry because of how bad I felt. Through my tears I failed to notice a porcupine in the middle of the road. Yep, I hit him too. FML

Today, I was walking my husky when she saw a cat and bolted toward it. I couldn't let go of the leash because my hand was tangled up. Forced to run along, I ran into a parked van at full sprint. I lost my dog, broke two ribs and have to pay for the dent in the van. FML

Today, I got into my truck after a long day at work, only to notice that a large section of the seats and doors had been destroyed by a feral cat that had somehow gotten trapped inside. I’m still not sure how it got in. FML

Today, a stray cat climbed up into my car's engine for shelter at some point last night. Guess how I found out this morning. FML

Save the doggo

Today, I was driving down the road when a dog suddenly ran across the street. In attempt to spare its life, I swerved to the side of the road and rear-ended another car. The car I hit belonged the family who owned the dog. Now I have to pay them because I saved their dog's life. FML

Today, I ran over my neighbors' cat. I didn't want it to look like I killed it, so I put it under my other neighbor's car so it would look like they ran over it. The cat's owners were watching me. FML

That one could go either way. FYL for getting scratched but YDI for not parking the car.

Very nice of you to try and save the cat... but... I really doubt it was helpless if it scratched the shit out of you. Just go slower until it gets its fuzzy dumb ass out of the way. I once did this with a turtle. Now that thing WAS helpless, wouldn't be out of the road in time for me, or anyone else, and I'd rather pull over and get it out of the road instead of sitting and waiting on it. I also actually put my vehicle in park. Seriously, that's a very important thing to do, how could you have missed it?

the scratches aren't what I hit 'ydi' for... being dumb enough to not have the car in park is.

There's no such thing as "a poor, helpless cat."

Yeah, this kind of reminds me of the people who call about a cat stuck in their tree. As some comedian put it "Has anyone ever seen a cat die in a tree? No..." But, my cat is poor and helpless, though. She was hit by a car and now her back legs don't function correctly. Technically speaking, she would be considered "poor and helpless" in the middle of the road.
