Today, I took my cat to the vet for an x-ray. They found three dollar coins in his stomach. The surgery to remove them is $600. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I was nervous about taking my cat to the vet for a UTI, because money’s a little tight. Turns out the antibiotics weren’t that expensive, but he wants at least $1,000 for dental surgery she apparently “needs.” FML
Today, I dropped $1600 at the emergency vet because I thought my 14 year-old cat was constipated or obstructed. He was neither. He just had lots of gas in his intestines. I paid $1600 to find out my cat needed to fart. FML
Today, I had to put my cat to sleep after she was in an accident. While I was crying hysterically, the vet asked me for $230. FML
Today, I'm sitting at the vet's office while they run expensive tests on my cat. This is to make sure he doesn't have a bowel obstruction from eating the condom that my partner and I used last night. FML
Today, after seeing my cat struggle to use the litterbox and produce nothing for two days, I caved and took him to the emergency vet, fearing a UTI. It wasn't. $200 and 2 Lyft rides later, he's stoned out of his mind and peeing just fine. FML
Today, I paid $70 to learn from the vet that my cat doesn't have a UTI, he's just developed a fetish for peeing on plastic bags. FML
Today, I paid $325 to have the vet tell me that my 19-year-old cat ISN'T dying, she just had anxiety shits because we were gone on vacation for so long. FML
Today, my cat was hit by a car. I took it to the vet expecting the worst but they told me that she’d be fine. I was so happy I didn't even mind paying the $50 bill. The next morning my cat was dead. Having her put down humanely would have cost $45, I paid $5 extra to have her die in my kitchen. FML
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 had horrible pains in my stomach area so I went to the doctors. They couldn't find anything wrong and sent me to the Emergency Room for X-rays. After spending the entire day in the hospital, they tell me I'm slightly constipated. I had to pay $400 to find out I had to take a shit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

What do you care more about, how much money this is costing you or your cat? I mean, $600 IS a lot for that kind of surgery but isn't it worth it since your cat is okay? That's what I think, anyways.

$600 is NOT a lot of money for "that kind of surgery." Source: I wrote estimates for foreign body removal surgeries as a veterinary technician.

How did the cat eat those coins? I just can't picture it! That must be a huge cat!!!!!!

Uhh I don't know where you live but where I'm from coins don't get much bigger than an inch.

In the USA, whole dollar coins are quite large.

107, actually, they really aren't. Dollar coins are barely over an inch. It probably wasn't very hard for a cat to swallow it.

Canada, ass wipe and we have 1 and 2 dollar coins....ya they rock and they are huge!!!!!!

Oh, I didn't know that. Canada has large 1 and 2 dollar coins. I don't think a person could swallow those! Lol

Never seen an American 1 dollar coin. I thought only Canada had them.

Someone gave me a 1$ coin from the states once. They told me they don't actually use them much, they still just use their dollar bills, so I'm not really sure why have them at all... But they are a bit smaller than a loonie, I think, so maybe a cat could swallow one? Or maybe OP's cat is like Garfield :P

Pssht...my parents have a cat that cost $700 just to get fixed cause she kept rejecting stitches.

Cool story bro, tell it again.

This isn't rejecting stitches. This is swallowing money.

That's a sign to just stop trying.
