Today, I looked out the window just in time to see a coyote carrying off my cat that I had just let outside five minutes before. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I wandered around my property with my children, trying to find our escaped house cat. While in the more wooded parts, we spotted her on the ground, being picked over by a coyote. FML
Today, my dog was scooped up by an owl. FML
Today, my dog was barking at a squirrel in the yard. I opened the door to let him chase the squirrel. I went to look at the dead squirrel and found out it was the neighbor's chihuahua. 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, my cat jumped out a fourth-story window when I went to pet her. FML
Today, I came home to find a note on my door from the neighbor saying, "I saw a coyote eat your dog, but was afraid it was rabid." FML
Today, I found my cat downstairs with a squirrel dangling from his mouth. When I saw this, I yelled at my cat to put it down. He did. Turns out the squirrel was still alive and run. I had to spend the next three hours chasing it out of my house. FML
Today, my dog ran away. I looked for him for 5 hours, and when I came back home, he was waiting for me at the door. FML
Today, I was enjoying my dinner by my patio window when I spotted a cat roaming through my backyard. As I observed it explore my yard, I also watched as it climbed onto, then took a piss on the freshly clean clothes I had left to dry. FML
Today, I got caught trying to steal my own cat back from my neighbor. FML

For you, catastrophe. For the coyote, cat as trophy.

I'm sorry for your loss, but maybe don't let your cat outside in coyote country? Or get one of those Catios for them so they can safely be outside.

Did you try to get your cat from the coyote?

Do coyotes carry off live prey? Because otherwise, I think the OP might have been too late...

You shouldn’t have let your cat go outside without watching them.

YDI. People still let their cats outside?

Yes, they do. They probably don't understand why that's a bad thing.

Today we learned WHY you shouldn’t let your cat outside beyond “they’re invasive predators who destroy the ecosystem.” I am sorry you had to learn that the hard way though. RIP, cat.
