Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my cat thought it was appropriate to bring a bird into the house at 4 a.m.; the bird thought it was appropriate to attack my mom. FML

Today, I was woken up by a bird screaming its guts out. My cat had somehow managed to catch a bird and bring it inside. My 9 a.m. morning began with trying to catch a bird in my own home. FML

Unloveable
Today, I adopted a cat, thinking it would make my life a little less lonely. Within an hour, the cat ran away. Not even animals want to be around me. FML

Today, my brother and I found a little bird that couldn't fly. While trying to convince my mom that it couldn't fly so we could keep it, I lightly tossed it in the air and it landed a few feet in front of me. Then my cat grabbed it and ate it. FML

Today, my cat loves to chase birds. In fact, he loves it so much, he ran out of the litter box mid-poop to chase one, forcing me to wipe his ass. FML

Flash, ah ah!
Today, a bird ran into my window. My overzealous cat ran at it like the Flash and smashed his face in the window. He yelped and ran away, then as I was running to see if he was OK, I slammed my face in the door jamb. FML

Feral kitty
Today, a cat ran into the house and got cornered in my room. Animal control wasn't answering so I did what I could to try to lure it out. It proceeded to chomp down on my finger. Way to start the New Year. FML

Why wasn't your bird in a cage of some sort? Haven't you heard of gentle acclimating a pet to a new environment? Seems like you fault

did the person who gave you the cat have it chipped or is the cat just gone.

That is just incredibly unfortunate OP. it's always nice to get a new pet, but you could not have known the cat would go for your bird. Sorry about that.

Cat can't get to a bird if it was properly housed in a cage. Also, most cats hide in the walls or under furniture, not out the front door! Thankfully they don't venture far. Fyl and fybirdslife.

Should've asked for a dog.

Your cat seems like a little kid gives the bird then runs away

Oh jeez... Yay for typical sylvester and tweety situation

Typical. Would've been funny if he was named Sylvester and the bird was a canary named Tweety.

Yeah I've got to say that this is 100% your fault. As a responsible owner, you're supposed to supervise pet introductions and keep them separate any time humans are not going to be around. As in doors separating them, not just a cage. The fact that it also was able to immediately run away is a testimony to your responsibility and how much you pay attention to animals. Please don't "adopt" anymore animals. They're better off without you.

Obviously you didn't read OP's comment. She didn't try to introduce the two, her brother let the bird out not knowing about the cat. She hasn't mentioned as far as I've read how the cat got out.
