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.
Today, my cat played dead just so I would leave him alone. FML
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
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
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
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
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

Cats don't say goodbye! They crawl away and die, to prevent spreading disease. It's basic instinct for many species. If you think that the cat could actually process thought enough to say goodbye you're either a 12 year old girl that never grew up, still 12, or retarded.

i can't believe you would just ignore him like that! poor cat, all he wanted was a tiny bit of your attention and you couldn't even give him that.

Your poor cat. Don't get another pet until you have time or care enough to pay some attention to it.

My cat constantly wants attention. To the point that he'll jump on your lap while you're taking a crap. Then he'll have moments where he'll just meow to here himself talk. I go and check on him and he'll just look at me. He doesn't want anything. His food and water are full. He just makes noise for the heck of it. I give him plenty of attention and play time. Cats are weird. You can't assume to OP is a bad pet owner just because his cat is really needy. People are allowed to be preoccupied with something else every once and a while.

and yet no one will admit that when their own pet does this they also push them away sometimes... i mean really my dog does this a lot for purely attention and will jump on me while im sleeping and i've never woken up to find her dead.... quite honestly ignoring a pet for a few hours if they have food/water isn't really a crime nor does it make you a horrible person....

Actually, I pet my cats whenever I have the chance. If one of them came up to me meowing to be petted, I would be so happy. Usually they're the ones to ignore me.

@438, same with my pets. I wish they'd seek my attention more.

@ 9-I'm confused. Why do you have cats if you don't let them in the house. They might as well be strays if they don't have a house.

thats not true. We live on a farm and have outdoor cats because some people are allergic, plus it helps with our mice issues :D

Well, some people have cats, and they might also have people in their families who are allergic. That's my situation. I still take care of my cats, feed them, brish their fur, take them to the vet, and give them lots of attention. They even have their own room for cold nights. So no, sweetie, they aren't strays. Not everyone can safely keep cats indoors.
