Today, I have a cat with separation anxiety. By this, I mean whenever I go in another room and shut the door with her outside, she uses her head as a battering ram to try and break down the door. It's fun trying to sleep too. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my incredibly needy rescue cat - who knows she doesn't get to go into my bedroom at night - decided that she needed to wail and scratch the bedroom door from midnight until 5 a.m. Now that I'm awake, she's ignoring me because she knows I'm mad at her. FML
Today, my cat locked herself in the bathroom and screamed until she was let out, for what seems like the millionth time this week. It took me a while to realize she's doing it on purpose for attention. She is loved and cared for; I've never neglected her. Apparently, it's still not enough. FML
Today, it’s 3 a.m. and my cat is shredding the padded door of her box, wanting to get out. I would be sympathetic if not for the fact that she has a perfectly good cat flap on the other side of that box, so she can go outside whenever she wants. FML
Today, I closed my bedroom door before I went to work this morning so my cat wouldn't chew on the cords in there. When I got back, I couldn't find my other cat anywhere. I went to my bedroom and heard her yelling. She was in there, stuck there all morning and afternoon. Oops. FML
Today, I shut the door to the bedroom so my wife and I could have a serious talk. Unfortunately, the cat stuck his paw under the door and started flailing around, causing me to bust up laughing at a bad moment. My wife was furious, threw a water bottle at me, and locked me out overnight. FML
Today, our cat doesn’t care much whether she gets into my room or not. Except at about 3 a.m. each night. That’s the time she sits outside the door, meowing to be let in. FML
Today, I came home from a four-day trip. Apparently, my cat thought I was gone for good and is now very unhappy that I'm home. I know this because she's been positioning herself between me and my husband all night, and hisses every time I try to touch him. He thinks it's hilarious. FML
Today, as every day for the past three weeks, my girlfriend's cat kept us up from 3:30am crying nonstop. We've tried everything, and even exiled my well-behaved cat to keep him company. Now she cries because she feels she's being punished. Starting around 4am. FML
Today, I found out after $200 worth of checks and tests, three rugs being ruined from her peeing and pooping on them, that my cat isn't sick. She just has really bad separation anxiety. FML
Today, my cat learned how to open doors. Ever since then she's been running up to my room, opening my door, and running away. My cat is playing ding-dong ditch. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hmm. Lock her in a separate room, with a cushion or pillow attached to it. She'll headbutt the pillow. :P

Couldn't OP just put the cat two rooms away so he couldn't hear it? And btw, dogs are so much better than cats, unless we're talking about kittens.

Or, you could always leave your cat with a bunch of your used clothes. It'll help her get over always following you since she has something to remind her of you.

You must be strong to pick up a car. Haha, I never knew cars could do all that.

Maybe she won't be able to sleep with her cat in her room. If I let my cat in my room at night she'll hit my face with her paws and scratch my feet. Since I'm not a heavy sleeper I can't sleep through that!
ilovepoppa 0
I'd rather have my cat tickling my toes then banging at the door.. but that's just me. And plus the cat can get injured ramming into the door.
TayonaC 10
cut it's claws problem solved. ha don't you think it would be creepy hearing random banging sounds on the door at night?! I would be scared

Nah! My dog wimpers at my bedroom door as if she's been neglected for years when it's closed! That's way more frustrating.

what if you have a great dane? you get humped be that and you'll be in physical rehab for a month.

yeah no my dog won't shut her mouth

They don't slober on you, the don't bark all night, you can pick them up, they will actually cuddle FOR REAL and purr, they don't poop all over your yard because they are litter box trained etc, and if they do poop in your yard they cover it up so you dont step in it. Dont give me a hard time about training dogs to do all that, cats naturally do ALL of this. Catching on now?

Guys. Cats and Dogs both have their pros and cons. Stop flaming over them.

^I agree.

yah agreed, judging by what I see being posted on this site, I don't think this counts as an FML, u just feel like telling someone about your stupid cat
natirixoxo 0
the cat does it whenever a doors closed. I wouldn't let a cat in the bathroom with me or if I was having some fun in the bedroom, so it would be annoying.

"Today, my owner kept leaving and going into another room. So I followed her so she would feed me. Then she closed the door and tried to go to sleep I had to bang my head on the door to get fed. I still didn't get fed. I hate being a cat. FML"

"today, my owner finished feeding me and went to sleep, I wanted her to rub my belly but she wouldn't come to see me. after furiously smashing my head against a door, I forgot what I was doing. finding the exercise joyous and fun, I continued to interupt my owners sleep. FML"
