Today, I went Christmas shopping for my cat. I still haven't bought presents for my family, yet my cat already has several small gifts under the tree and an outfit to wear around the house. I really need a new hobby. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, to try to have a less depressing Christmas, I've put up a small tree in my apartment and wrapped some presents for myself. I woke from a nap to the sound of my cat vomiting. What did she throw up on? The presents. FML
Today, I bought a Halloween costume for my cat. FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend a cat. I now have a cat and no girlfriend. FML
Today, I put Christmas wrapping on old books and things I already own, because I realized that it's the only way I'll have anything under the tree this year. FML
Today, I bought my cat a fun toy at the one of a kind craft show. It has catnip in it, which he loves. He flipped out, so I took it away. He won't stop trying to break into the cupboard I put it in. My cat has a drug problem. FML
Today, after spending hours wrapping the presents for Christmas, I came back into the room to find that my dog had lost his toy, knocked over all the presents, and was frantically ripping at everything to find it. FML
Today, I'm celebrating New Year's with my cat. I made her a cake. FML
Today, I stayed up until 4 am. I was waiting for both my cats to fall asleep, so I could play Santa and stuff their stockings in secret. FML
Today, we spent hours decorating the Christmas tree, perfectly balancing the lights, ornaments, and tinsel. Ten minutes later, the cat thought it was a right time to reenact Die Hard and climbed up the tree, knocking it over. Now my ornaments are shattered, and my cat is smugly sitting in the wreckage. FML
Today, my dad and stepmom came back from a very expensive two-month trip across the world. When they got home, they had more gifts for their cat than for me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

One of my pet hates are people who buy Christmas/birthday presents for animals, YDI OP.

Kitties are totally more important than family :) They are adorable!

If you think that a stupid cat is more important than family, that's really sad.

Do you not understand what a joke is? Cause that's really sad.

Sorry it just really pisses me off how people make such a big issue getting their stupid cats a Christmas present when they should be get something for their family instead. I mean, a cat doesn't even know what Christmas is so what's the point? Pets should not be treated like they're humans.

I don't know about anyone else here, but I treat my pets like family. I don't treat them better than family, but I love them all the same.

Why would you have your cat wearing clothes? That's cruel, unnecessary, unhealthy and stupid. People like you should be prohibited from keeping pets.

You're the family member everyone else's FMLs are about.

Pets deserve and appreciate love - and return it, unlike some people. Merry Christmas OP to both of you =)
