Adopt, don't shop
Today, I got a new cat. It was fine for a couple of hours until it gave birth in my kitchen. The seller claims to have no idea that it was pregnant. Now I have to take care of 7 cats instead of 2. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I took in an old friend’s fat cat for a month until she finds a place to live. Turns out the cat isn’t fat, just pregnant. I found out when I found two of her dead kittens in my living room. FML
Today, my cat went into labor. This is surprising since 6 years ago, we paid to have her spayed. 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 woke up in the middle of the night to my cat meowing, with her dilated vagina in my face, giving birth to her first litter of kittens. FML
Today, I found out two of my rats are pregnant. The breeder told us that all of them were male, only one ended up being male. I now have 20+ rat babies on the way and no idea how to take care of them. FML
Today, my wife brought home a kitten, telling me it had been abandoned. She must think I’m dumb, since our credit card statement shows that all last week she bought it from a breeder, then got it vaccinated and chipped at the vet's, and only now brought it home to feed me this pack of lies. FML
Today, my cat had the bright idea of giving birth in the dryer, on top of all my new white towels. FML
Today, I was over at a friend's house feeding her cats while she was on vacation. After feeding the four of them, I found an extra cat under the sofa. Thinking it was an intruding stray, I kicked it out. She actually has 5 cats. FML
Today, I came home to find that my pregnant cat had given birth to a stillborn kitten in practically every room of the house. She had then rubbed her butt around the house, leaving bloody stains everywhere. When I tried to clean the white carpet, the bleach turned it green. FML
Today, I thought I had two cats, an albino and a tuxedo, but apparently I have four. I just discovered that an orange cat and a black cat have somehow gotten into my basement and made themselves at home. There's no way in hell I can afford four cats. Oh, and the cats I actually own hate them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

How did YOU not know it was pregnant? Or did you just think you were buying a firmly fat cat?

Nothing a burlap sack and a rock can't solve.

If you bought the cat i hope it was a. Pureblood and if daddy was the same you could be in for some money, doubtful though

It's quite possible they didn't know the cat was pregnant, if her nipples never enlarged it would just look like she gained weight. I'm doubting that they bred cats to know what signs to look for. Obviously you didn't the cat from very responsible owners if they let their unspayed cat out. I would get the cat and her kittens to the vet soon to make sure she wasn't sick with anything. Who knows if they bothered to get her shots. Really though, just remember you only need to keep them for 8 weeks and then they're perfectly fine to leave mom.

Seller? You BOUGHT a cat!? With hundreds of the little furballs in boxes at every supermarket, begging to be taken home, you BOUGHT an ADULT cat that turned out to be preggos? Sorry, but YDI.

You can always give some of the cats away to friends or safe homes.

Drown them in your bath tub and burn the bodies, problem solved

Seller? What kind of cat did you get that required you to pay for it? Most people are willing to just give you one...if on the other hand, it was from an actual pet store....I'd take them to court.
