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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I took my cat to the vet for a regular check-up. In the waiting room, she escaped from her carrier and created chaos, knocking over supplies, and hissing at everyone. FML
Today, I woke up, got dressed, and left for the 1 hour drive to the nearest vet. When I arrived, I realized that I left my cat in its carrier on my kitchen counter. FML
Today, I saw a poor helpless cat in the middle of the road while driving. I pulled over and scooped it in my arms to bring it to safety. Not only did I get mauled and scratched by the cat, my car also wasn't put in park and rolled away hitting a parked car. FML
Today, I took my cat to the vet. As the vet reached to examine him, he hissed, then clawed me instead, and then ran straight into a wall. Now we’re both sitting at the vet's, scowling and injured. FML
Today, I was walking my husky when she saw a cat and bolted toward it. I couldn't let go of the leash because my hand was tangled up. Forced to run along, I ran into a parked van at full sprint. I lost my dog, broke two ribs and have to pay for the dent in the van. FML
Today, I went to pick up my dog from the vet after she had surgery. I somehow managed to lock my keys, my purse, and my dog in the car. FML
Today, I took my wife's cat to the vet for her yearly check up. I'm finishing the day at the hospital with multiple bite wounds and a deep gash in my leg. My wife chose to comfort her cat instead. 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 called a cab to get me and my cat home from the vet. After a 40 minute wait and three calls to the taxi company, the operator told me that the driver she sent to my location just confirmed that he already has a woman with my name and a cat in his car. FML
Today, my cat got outside and had the bright idea to walk in the middle of the road, right as a car was coming. The driver didn't notice him, so I had to sprint over there, leap into the road, and toss my cat to safety. He's fine, aside from being soaked (he landed in a puddle), but I've felt better. FML

Very smart cat... Managed to not only get out of going to the vet, he punished you for trying to take him OP.

Haha, I was expecting it to be one of those stories where OP was letting their pet just chill in the car, which would've been an instant YDI, but the cat was actually in a cage and still managed to get out? Impressive! FYL OP, hope the scratches are just from the cat rather than getting in an accident..

So your cat mauled you while driving? Did it know you were going to vet or does your cat not travel?

Well cats do not howl and cats are evil!

This makes me laugh at the visual I get. Hope both you and your cat are ok. Why didn't you stop and put her back in though?

At a guess, is say there was nowhere safe to pull over at the time.

Why would you get charged for an appointment you didn't make it to and that the vet never had to do?
Jessie2410 15
Because they had that appointment slot saved for you. It's not like they can find another person to fill it if you don't show up, it's too late at that point. So instead of just not getting paid, they charge you a fee for taking up their time. It's the same as human medical offices.

I would just be thankful that stitches is all I ended up with.
