A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Sneakin' around
Today, my neighbor knocked on my door and asked if I'd seen her cat. I helped her search the hallway, basement, and garden for 30 minutes. We finally found it sitting inside my apartment, where I had apparently been living with it for three days without noticing. FML

Today, my sister came over for a visit. I was going to surprise her with the news that I had spontaneously gotten a cat. The first thing she told me when she came in was that she ran over my neighbor's cat. None of my neighbors have cats. FML

Today, I discovered my cat prefers my neighbour. I know this because she posted pictures of him on Instagram, captioned "My new baby." FML

Today, I found out that my upstairs neighbor has a cat. I was blessed with this knowledge when she threw several piles of used kitty litter and cat poop over her balcony and onto my patio. FML

Spay and neuter, people!
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, I adopted a stray cat that kept showing up at my door. Turns out, it belongs to my neighbours. It wasn’t lost; it just doesn’t like living with them. Now, they want it back. FML

Cat Burglar!
Today, I found my lost cat. As I was hooking it up to a leash to get it in my car, a man approached and asked what I was doing. His kids alerted him that there was a woman stealing their cat from their front lawn. It was not my cat. FML

Today, after being convinced that my cat had worms due to eating so much food and still looking really skinny, I found out that my neighbor secretly lets his dog in through my pet door while I'm at work. FML

You guys can cut it in half! It's the perfect solution! You'll only have to feed your cat half as much. Also less litter to clean!

Thank you, King Solomon.

I have been notified that if cut in half, the cat will die. Then you don't have to feed it at all!

Where did you even get the cat which you claimed was yours?

Well, I guess the cat wasn't complaining about being with you.

...does that make you a cat burglar?

That's a YDI if I ever saw one. I highly doubt this would've happened if you acted like a responsible human being and put up 'found'-posters around your neighborhood to see if the cat already belonged to someone. Did you just assume the cat was a stray and decide to keep it without even thinking about whether or not there was still an owner around? I feel bad for your neighbor, not for you.

That isn't the only way OP could have found the cat

How is it OP's fault for not putting up "found" posters when clearly the owner never gave out "lost" posters? If you've lost your pet don't you check with your neighbours first and put up flyers around your own neighbourhood? The guy thought he was doing a good thing, give him a break.

I guess it's entirely impossible that OP did in fact put up posters and the first owners didn't see them or ignored them. or maybe the first owner didn't care about the cat. or even that the cat came to OP's house multiple times before OP decided to keep it. yeah, it's just easier to assume OP is an asshole that just stole the neighbors cat.

At least you know where kitty is when he/she is when gone for days or weeks.

I can't imagine how you bring this situation up to your neighbor!
