Today, I checked over the pictures on my night-cam to see if my cats are really going on our kitchen counters. As soon as I'd seen the first picture, I realized that this whole time that my cats hadn't been going on it. It was a rat. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out the animal that was gnawing behind the kitchen wall all night was indeed a wild rat and his entire family. FML
Today, after my house almost got broken into last week, when I heard some noises in the kitchen I went to investigate. I saw a huge rat run across my floor, and nearly peed myself thinking it was an intruder. FML
Today, I found out that both of my cats are afraid of mice. So far I've seen them run and hide from 3 different mice who've recently invaded my apartment. FML
Today, I jumped when, after being home alone for days, I suddenly saw the door handle move. Apparently, the cats weren't happy about being locked out of the kitchen and were pretty close to figuring things out. FML
Today, our rodent problem was taken care of. I discovered this when my cat projectile-vomited a soggy, death-scented wad of dark fur and tiny organs onto the couch. FML
Today I opened the door for my cat and he brought in a rat with him. Now the rat is hiding in my house. FML
Today, after feeding my cats, I walked out of the room. Five minutes later, I heard one of them making a hacking sound. Knowing the outcome, I went to get some paper towels to wipe up the mess. When I went in, my other cat was eating it. Certain things cannot be unseen. FML
Today, I found out that the mysterious smell from under my bed was my cats collection of dead mice. FML
Today, I saw a pair of eyes looking at me from my closet. Realizing it must be my cat, I called her. She immediately came out from under my bed. I can't find anything in my closet. FML
Today, I woke up and went into the bathroom and noticed a dark mass in the toilet. Thinking someone took a dump and didn't flush, I approached the toilet ready to dispose of it. That's when I noticed its whiskers and ears. It was a rat, and it was alive. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That was your karma letting you know you should never blame cats.

This is my FML, I was having problems logging into my account that day and made up a name. Story is I had a friend who just got out of physical rehab coming home and I decided to make her a welcome home cake. I left the cake covered up in wrap that evening and woke up to the wrapping disturbed and it bitten into. I have two cats and one of them is a complete sweetheart but has been known to try and eat anything she can get her paws on (literally! Thanksgivings a nightmare with her around!) a rule in my house is the cats can't go on the counter cause they go in the litter box and track filth. So I set up the camera to catch her in the act. Only to find out it was a rat. Fortunately, my cats killed it not long after so it's not a bother anymore. Thanks for all the good comments and what not I got a good laugh out of it. Hope you all have a nice holiday!

OP here. I forgot my password the day I wrote it and by the time I got a new password I completely forgot to write back. The story is I had a friend who just got out of physical rehab after a nasty car accident and I wanted to make her a welcome home cake. I have two cats and one is a complete sweetheart. But the problem is the sweetheart has a deranged food lust. No matter what you do, she always tries to find a way to get some food in her belly. And we feed her pretty good! Anyhow a rule in my house is cats aren't allowed on the kitchen counters because it's considered dirty to my family. The night before the cake was given I wrapped the cake up in wrap and when I woke up, there were nibbles in the cake and the wrap was disarray. I set the night cam up to catch the cat in the act and try to figure her issues out. I was not expecting to see a rodent on my kitchen counter, the last rodent we had in my home was a hamster when I was a kid. Fortunately, I re-did the cake and my friend was happy and a week later the cats caught the rat. Thanks for all your comments I had a great laugh and happy holidays!
