Today, I was snuggling with my neighbors four week old kitten while babysitting their kids. I fell asleep, rolled over, and woke up next to a dead kitten. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I got a kitten. She decided to sleep on my bed, waking me up periodically during the night by biting my face to make sure I was still alive. FML
Today, while I was pet-sitting for my boyfriend's parents, one of their dogs killed one of their kittens. FML
Today, I had to babysit both my neighbor's 3-year-old daughter and my very pregnant cat. I left the room briefly, only to come back to a traumatized 3-year-old crying in horror as my cat gave birth in front of her. FML
Today, I took a nap with a kitten I just adopted from my mom's house. To make her feel more comfortable, I took a nap with her on my bed. In my dream, I kept smelling poo and I felt around on the bed to find the kitten. She apparently had diarrhea on my bed and I had stuck my hand in it. FML
Today, I made my way to bed around 4am after spending all night hanging out with my family. When I got to my bed, I started to clear a spot to lay down. Almost immediately, my hand touched something furry and cold and, fearing the worst, I turned the light on. Turns out my cat left me a half eaten rodent. FML
Today, as I was trying to fall asleep, I was jolted awake by my oldest cat who'd decided it would be perfect to power-puke all over my bed. FML
Today, I witnessed the miracle of life. More specifically, my cat giving birth on my bed at four in the morning. FML
Today, I turned over in my sleep and fell out of bed, face-first into a puddle of cold cat vomit that my cat had left for me. FML
Today, I was woken up by my roommates cat meowing so loudly at her door, wanting in. Suddenly it stopped. I was just falling back into sleep when I rolled over and the cat was right there beside my head. Meowing. FML
Today, I didn't realize my cat was sleeping in the room with me until she decided to jump on me in the middle of the night, resulting in a critical hit to my groin. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's just enormous amount of pure fail. You fall asleep while you should be looking after their kids AND you kill their kitten. I hope you don't do this regularly.

#154 - Sometimes you correspond regularly with the vet that you take your existing pets to, and they tell you how to take care of the kitten, taking the burden off of the already busy vet, keeping the animal out of the hands of overworked and underfunded animal shelters, and leaving you with a strong bond with a loving pet that will be with you for 10+ years.

dont feel guilty, I understand. I raise orhpaned wild animals and rehabilitate them to the wild. And I had this Robin baby, and it was obsessed with me, it WOULD NOT stop screaming when i let go of it. i had tried everything, no matter where i put it, it would hop back onto me..I tried a cage but it just rammed itself against the bars and was hurting its self. It was 4 am, still...it wouldnt shutup and was keeping my family up. So I held it in my hands "for a minute" I blinked...turns out I fell asleep...I open my eyes and see a squished dead bird beside my head. I felt so bad, I still feel HORRIBLE. I have nightmares about rolling over babies and waking up besides their dead bodies all the time now. Anyway, point being, it was a mistake, not your fault. definitely an FML

That was awful. Not even something I would want to read. It makes me feel absolutely horrible even thinking about that.

For the OP: sorry that this happened for you, I'm sure it felt terrible, but like 130 and 131 commented, don't take other people posting here seriously. For everyone calling the OP a murderer and sick, etc. - accidents happen to most human beings, and if you pulled your self-righteous heads out from your asses for a moment and stopped trying to e-bully someone into *hanging* or *hurting* themselves, which just escalate this ridiculously (seriously, it looks badly on YOU, not the OP), you could maybe see a situation where random and upsetting things that aren't directly your fault have occurred in your lives - they may not have involved an animal, but it's clearly an accident on the OP's part, and I'm sure they already feel terrible about it and have learned that little creatures should probably not be cuddled with when you're drowsy for the sake of their safety... Sorry OP.

When I was 8 or 9 I was sleeping on the couch in the living room and one of our kittens climbed up my blanket and I woke up and it was dying. I didn't know what was happening and my mom said it got sick but a few years later I realized that she had lied and that it was my fault :( I still feel bad for the poor kitty.

That's awful. And yes, kittens should not be taken from their mother or adopted until they are about seven weeks old. I have no idea what that family was thinking when they adopted that kitten...

What the heck? Why would you put this on here! You should feel bad enough about what you did, you're going to post it for millions to see so we feel shitty just like you? That's so awful. WHY did you fall asleep babysitting? You're getting paid. Even if the kids are asleep, you should be awake. This is so awful. YDI, number 76, how could anyone NOT say the OP deserved it? Really. #107, yeah I do that and 39, i definitely agree. Awful.
