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

People need to stop acting as if OP is a horrible person, they didn't know. Cats cry all the time, for every reason imaginable, and few of those are because they don't feel well. They want attention, outside, to play, to be left alone, for a treat, food, a toy, to be let in... More often than not, when a cat is sick, they don't even show many symptoms, they may even hide their symptoms and youd never know something was wrong till something noticeable happens, like not eating or dying, in this case. The OP wasn't being a bad owner or neglectful, more than likely their cat acted like that regularly and they didn't know anything was wrong. I'm sure they feel horrible now, but this isn't their fault.

FYL :( One of my cats constantly meows, wants to sit on my lap, she sits in front of the screen when I'm on my computer or watching TV. Climbs onto books. She never wants to tell me anything, because she just sits down and shuts up if I pet her. Cats do that. They have times of neediness for no specific reason. I'm with 463/z3vil on this. I'm sorry you lost your cat OP.
