Today, my boss's cat died. I'm expected to attend the service. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my husband's cat died. He has resorted to calling me by her name to comfort himself. FML
Today, I had to explain to my boss that the reason I was sobbing hysterically as she told me that I was getting a pay raise was because I was going to the vet to have my sick and dying cat put down. Good news at a bad time. FML
Today, I was crying at my desk at work. My colleague tried to cheer me up by saying: "Don't worry, I'm sure you will find a new job soon". I didn't even know I was fired. I was crying because my cat died this morning. FML
Today, my boss brought his cat to the office. Despite our no pet policy, I still managed to get the blame when the crazy animal scratched 3 colleagues and peed on the floor after my boss left for bathroom. Apparently I was supposed to be "looking after it". 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
Today, my boss announced he will be taking bereavement leave due to his father passing away. For some reason I’ll never understand, I got the urge to laugh. I tried so hard to hold it in but it was very obvious. If looks could kill, I wouldn’t be able to write this. FML
Today, my roommate's noisiest cat passed away. My previously-silent cat has decided that someone has to fill the void, and has been running around the apartment howling ever since. FML
Today, my boss is such an unfeeling asshole that he seriously thought he could demand I only stay at my best friend's funeral for 45 minutes then return to work, because it was “just a friend, not a relative', and that when his mother died he "took a whole 2 hours off and was back at work by 11:45.” FML
Today, I got a promotion. I was really excited until I realized that the only friend I had to celebrate with was my pet cat. FML
Today, I was at a meeting. One of the other members decided to share that their cat had passed away recently. I got an uncontrollable nervous laugh, started crying because I was laughing so hard, and left the room while everyone watched in horror. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your boss has every right to mourn for his cat but no right to demand you do that too. its not your pet and though everyone should be respectful when someone grieves for a pet there is no need to attend its funeral. The only exception to this rule is the death of your kids pet (not one like a cat/dog since they are family pets) when your kid is distraught over their goldfish then Im sorry in that instance your gonna have to suck it up and go.

Just suck it up and Put on your Big Girl/Boy Panties and go. Quit your wining and have a little compassion. Besides that, DO YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR JOB ? Obvioulsy that cat meant alot to your boss and he just needs to get through this difficult time, and it would probobly mean alot to him if his trusted employees were there for support.
