Today, I let my new cat sleep in bed with me. It was cute until she wiped a tapeworm onto my arm. FML

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

Today, my new anti-social cat started rubbing on my leg. I thought she must be warming up to me. Then, I looked at my leg and saw she smeared poo all over my work pants. FML

Today, I finally got myself settled into bed around 2 in the morning after a very long day. My cat started to snuggle with me when I smelled something disgusting. Turns out my cat sharted in my bed. FML

Today, our new cat, which my mum was hesitant about letting us keep because she believes they're diseased, gave us all ringworm. FML

Today, my cat woke me up by vomiting a big, warm, stinky hairball on my neck and then left. I think she was smiling as she trotted away. FML

The gift
Today, I turned over in my sleep and fell out of bed, face-first into a puddle of cold cat vomit that my cat had left for me. FML

Wake up call
Today, as I was trying to fall asleep, I was jolted awake by my oldest cat who'd decided it would be perfect to power-puke all over my bed. FML

Today, I replaced my bedsheets with new, clean ones. I went to the bathroom to wash up, and when I came back, my cat had peed exactly where my head would be. FML

Today, my cat likes to share my pillow at night. I guess she was extra comfortable last night, because she didn't bother getting off it to hack up a hairball. I woke up because I rolled my face onto it. FML

Sobering
Today, I made my way to bed around 4am after spending all night hanging out with my family. When I got to my bed, I started to clear a spot to lay down. Almost immediately, my hand touched something furry and cold and, fearing the worst, I turned the light on. Turns out my cat left me a half eaten rodent. FML

Today, my cat was in the bathroom with me. I was getting undressed to get into the shower. My cat looked at me after I'd undressed and then threw up all over the rug. FML

TWO pets for the price of ONE?! Some people have all the luck!

I don't know what you're definition of a good time is, but I would find that rather romantic. Just you, your cat, and a tapeworm.

Hey, cats are natural born assholes sometimes

Was given a cat last christmas. She was all cute and fluffy and loved cuddling up to me. Problem was, she had ringworm on her ears and one of her front legs. By the time treatment cleared it up she was rather less willing to cuddle

Why on earth is your cat not regularly wormed. YDI. Take care of your cat

The dewormer that is generally given on a regular basis (usually pyrantel, often administered in combination with heartworm or flea prevention) doesn't affect tapeworms. Tapeworms are usually treated as needed, not monthly like other types. And this is a brand new cat the owner hasn't been taking care of very long. tldr; op isn't necessarily a bad pet parent based on the information given.

I'd hope you remember to have your pets de-wormed from now on. Lol. This sucks, but you kind of deserve it for failure to provide care.

didnt the cat get a check up before you brought her home? at least tape worms are easily delt with on a mild medication.
