Today, my cat kept sneezing all morning so I took her to the vet. $150 later and the vet says she's fine. I get home and the noise starts up again. My automatic air freshener spray sounds just like my cat sneezing. FML
I agree, your life sucks (10293) - you totally deserved it (31522)

You can't ever get out of the vet without spending at LEAST $100. Even when there's nothing wrong. Sorry that sucks.

Those things scare the crap out of me sometimes. Especially when you're in someone elses house and they have a bunch of animals.
Those freaking things get me all the time! Especially when I'm alone in a public bathroom, I always thing somebody is hiding in the corner! LOL
FYL indeed!

would you not look at your cat?
and while looking at the cat, hear the noise and realize it wasn't the cat?

Why would you take your cat to the vet for sneezing? Especially for only a morning. Kittys get colds too.
wow. you took your cat the vet for sneezing for one morning. and you werent even sure that it was your cat. you are dumb. you wasted $150. YDI
That's ridiculous! it's only $35 for me to take the cat into my vet. Sorry about the airfreshner though that is pretty funny

Okay what's with #10 (12013?) The last three FMLs I've read, he left some stupid comment about his "life f*ckin rocks!"
OP: How do you not know the difference between an air freshener and sneezing? Didn't you think it was strange that you never saw your cat sneezing?
#14 - On 05/20/2009 at 10:45am by bonafidehustler
Did you not look at your cat to see if that's where the noise was actually coming from? YDI. You know what they say about fools and their money.

Lol that's hilarious! But WIN, coz i admire someone who attends to their pets immediately and don't let the little "sneezes" get away! Thank you for caring that much, better $150 than saving money to find something out too late!

My aunt used to have one of those and it would scare the hell out of me! But this is hysterical. Sorry about your misfortune.
You are stupid.
But at least you love your pets! That's really all that matters.

agree with #8 & #21 you are a complete dumbass
not only that, but wouldn't you have known what kind of sound your air freshener makes?
#25 - On 05/20/2009 at 11:46am by genius_man16
That's so weird, a few weeks ago I took my air freshener spray in for repair cause it was making a funny sound, turns out it was just my cat sneezing!
#28 - On 05/20/2009 at 12:05pm by BussellRishop
They really do sound the same. At least you're a good owner!
#36 - On 05/20/2009 at 1:30pm by silvermoonstar3
congratulations for being a loving pet owner.
you care enough to take your pet to the vet.
for a sneeze..
that you didnt even see happening..
which ended up being an air freshener..
so let me rephrase that.
congratulations on being dumb and throwing your money away.
if you actually cared you would take a look at your pet and watch it sneeze before you decided to do someting about it
Um you never even saw your cat doing the sneezing? You're an idiot.
#38 - On 05/20/2009 at 1:48pm by planetearth
Your doing harm to your cat by letting it breath in all those toxic fumes the air freshener is releasing.
There, now send me $150 cause I just made it so your cat will live longer!!
#39 - On 05/20/2009 at 2:24pm by foreverabearfan
Lol! Sucks you had to spend the money, but hey... at least your cat got a checkup and everyone on here got a laugh.
#40 - On 05/20/2009 at 2:32pm by SurpriseButtseks
Awhh that's cute and funny- it's too bad it had a high cost with it though. At least you know your cat is healthy! Not a FML- just a very good owner to your kitty :)
Well I'm sure your cat was due for a check-up anyway, so all's well that ends well.
#44 - On 05/20/2009 at 3:57pm by breaksprinter_
YDI since you didn't even see your cat sneezing, you just heard the sound and decided to waste 150 bucks.
I hate these "I'm an idiot with my money" FMLs...
I never heard what one of those sounds like but that is really funny and sorry about having to spend the 150
#47 - On 05/20/2009 at 5:28pm by suckingatlife
at least you care enough about your kitty to take her to the vet when she is "sneezing." haha. THUMBS UP FOR YOU! (:
Hard earned money wasted for nothin, huh?
But it's good that you care about your kitty. =]
#53 - On 05/20/2009 at 11:08pm by jerrycurls
well, at least nothing's wrong with your cat. it's good to get a check-up every now and then anyway.
#54 - On 05/21/2009 at 1:26am by live_and_learn
I agree with #8. You should be able to see that it wasn't the cat sneezing... if a cat sneeezes she just sitting nicely looking around but shakes her head just like humans do...
Well at least you know your cat is all right! And think of it this way, you know its okay for other things too. :) I'm sure if they saw anything else wrong during the check-up they would have let you know.
Hahahaha~ Sorry pal, but I had a cute imagination of how your cat kept sneezing xD Tho it was fake xD
#59 - On 05/21/2009 at 7:00am by Sucks2beYouxD
Omg! I just got an air frshener that sprays every like 30 minutes and it sounds JUST LIKE my cats wow. lol
#61 - On 05/21/2009 at 4:52pm by whoaalexgoalex
i think this has been the funniest comment i've read all day. i could imagine the scene, the compasion, the relief, the hole in the pocket and then the realisation.DOH!
I'm sorry you lost that money but I'm genuinely moved you were so caring and concerned about your cat. I've heard horror stories about people neglecting their pets and not taking them to the vets even when they're in agony because the cost of the vets bills is more than the original cost of the animal, like it's a broken stereo or something.
#63 - On 05/22/2009 at 11:22pm by purple_sarah
That sounds just like my mother, who took her dying dog to an insanely expensive vet 75 miles away so they could charge her $550 and say she should put it down. Because it's dying.
Animals get sick!!!!! Take it to the vet if it is in serious trouble, but don't pay for the vet's pool.
#65 - On 05/25/2009 at 12:50pm by Mickey2315
Hahaha I'd do something like that too.
That's hilarious, FYL.
#67 - On 05/26/2009 at 7:52pm by LifeIsUnlegit
wow that sucks. Well at least u tuck it to the vet instead of being a bad pet owner. But really didn't u ever look at the cat's face, hear a sneeze, and see that it's face didn't change?
