Today, I ignored my cat's incessant meowing, and pushed him away every time he wanted to be petted. The next time I walked downstairs I found him dead. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, my cat played dead just so I would leave him alone. FML
Sorry Mr Whiskers
Today, my overly-attached 14-year-old cat wanted attention while I was in a heated Skype argument with my girlfriend. Worked up from the fight, I raised my voice and said, "Not now, go away!" He ran to his little bed, had a heart attack and died. I was a complete dick to my cat in his last moments. FML
Today, my cat head-butted me awake as usual. I reached to pet him, but it wasn't his face I touched. It was the still-twitching corpse of the disemboweled rat he held in his jaws. FML
Hello?
Today, I lost my cat. It's deaf, so no matter what I do it can't hear me. FML
Today, my dog played dead just so I would leave him alone. FML
How could you?
Today, despite me not liking cats, which my wife knew, she got a cat anyway. Her cat went for a walk outside and was hit by a car. I rushed outside to help the cat but found she was already dead, and the culprit had driven away. When my wife found out that her cat was dead, she thought I'd killed her. FML
Today, my mother yelled and yelled at me until I apologized to our cat for not petting him when he sat on my lap. FML
Cujo, but for cats
Today, my cat was incessantly meowing trying to get me to wake up and feed him. Because it was 6 a.m., and I'd hardly slept at all last night, my brain decided that the best solution to get him to shut up would be to hug him. The result was a normally docile and lazy cat giving me a nasty scratch next to my left eye. FML
Signs of distress
Today, I was woken up by my cat, who normally doesn't bother me in the morning, meowing desperately and trying to get me to wake up. Fearing that something was very wrong, I jumped out of bed. He gestured for me to follow him, so I did. I followed him all the way to the kitchen, where he proceeded to puke. FML
Today, my cat died. But, before he could bite the dust, he left a goodbye present on my bed: a decapitated baby rabbit. FML

Ugh, people are so stupid, but why would I go to an internet message board to find intelligence anyway? Nothing in this post indicates to me that the OP was an animal abuser or horrible person! Sometimes our loved ones can be annoying and we push them away for a bit. It doesn't mean we don't love them, just that we need a little space. Perhaps it was a very vocal cat who never stopped meowing, and the OP didn't realize that this one time, something was wrong. Ignoring a pet for a little while isn't cruel or a crime. Sometimes they need their space and ignore us, too. I'm so sorry about your loss.

This isnt really that hard to comprehend. People arent getting mad at the fact that he pushed his cat away and then it died. Everyone pushes there pet away sometimes. People are probably just upset because a good 99 percent of the time, when cats die, you can tell they are sick first. Their hair falls out, their nose is bloody and rubbed raw, they have a huge gash, or you just dont feed them enough and all of their bones show. And A good 100 percent of the time, if your cat looks sick, you dont push it away repeatedly. You look a little closer and idk, maybe even take it to the vet?

To those who say that OP is a '******* cat killer' etc, well, f you we have 3 kittens at home (well, they're almost fully grown, but meh.) and theyr'e not the most cuddly cats you could meet, but one of them, autumn, is NOT cuddly AT ALL but while I was busy, she started purring by me like that and I gave her a kiss before she started walking over my books and I pushed her off the bed about 3 times before she left me alon (even though I felt really bad). BUT sometimes I pick the cats up and put them on my bed while I wanna sleep and they wander round my head purring happily, with me getting up and patting and kissing them (instead of sleeping when I has to get up at 6 the next day) so, can y'all get it in your thick skulls that JUST BECAUSE the op was busy ONCE and pushed the cat away ONCE then it died, doesn't mean she's a cat killer! theres probably a bunch of diseases it could have had that aren't very noticable, or theres also things that cause sudden death eg heart attacks so, I say a big, **** YOU to all that say the op is a ******* cat killer, UNTIL you KNOW for SURE that she abuses/kills the cats.... and she doesn't sound like the sorta person to do that!

Ok... Being a long time owner of cats: Everyone who is saying shit like the cat was trying to say goodbye need to rethink what they are saying. Or ppl who think the OP is a cat killer need to shut up. If you've never owned a cat.. Then don't put forth your opinion. Because it doesn't matter if you have never had a cat. First, Cats don't "say goodbye" they just don't. When cats are sick they hide or leave. They go away to die. When a cat wants attention.. they are normally fine. They just want attention and love. Cats are very independant most of the time. Second, Cats don't always look sick. Sometimes they look fine. Sometimes they purr even if they are bleeding to death. So, half the time, it's impossible to know if a cat is sick or not. Finally, How can everyone be so judgemental on the OP if they don't know the whole story. Maybe the cat was really old. You can't stop death. It happens.. So ppl need to stop being mad at the OP. Things like this can't always be prevented. OP: I know how you feel. I had this cat once. She was the greatest cat ever. Her name was Salem. I saved her from a family who wasn't taking very good care of her. She was full grown when I got her and she lived 5 years after that. When I moved she stopped coming up to me.. she would hide from me. I had to make her eat and drink. She lost a lot of weight and could bearly walk on her own. She was so close to death. It killed me. I hated seeing her like that. I couldn't let her live her life like that.. When I got the money I took her to the vet to have her put to sleep. When they finally got to us.. the vet looked at me and said, "It's alright if you want to leave. We'll take care of her." I started to cry. I told the her that I couldn't do that to her and that I had to be there. I watched her while they did it. The whole time whispering in her ear, "I love you baby kitty. It will be ok. I'll always love you. I'll never forget you, I promise." I cried non-stop for a week after. I still cry when I think or talk about her. When I buried her.. I put her favorite toy and a picture of me in the coffen. That happened this year.. I still think about her. I haven't had another cat since then.. I just can't replace her. I'm 19 years old. I'm an animal lover. And I always will be.....
