Today, I ran over a cat while driving home. I tried to keep myself together but couldn't help but cry because of how bad I felt. Through my tears I failed to notice a porcupine in the middle of the road. Yep, I hit him too. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I saw a poor helpless cat in the middle of the road while driving. I pulled over and scooped it in my arms to bring it to safety. Not only did I get mauled and scratched by the cat, my car also wasn't put in park and rolled away hitting a parked car. FML
Today, I was backing out of my snowy drive way on my way to work. I thought I hit a lump of snow. I'd run over my white cat. FML
Today, I accidentally ran over a squirrel on the road. I was late for work so I didn't stop. Later, someone keyed the word PETA into the side of my car. FML
Today, I swerved to avoid running over a dead cat in the road. Instead, I ran over its head. The crack of its skull was loud enough for me to hear it. FML
Today, I swerved to miss hitting a kitten, over-corrected, hit and killed the cat, and totaled my truck by hitting a parked car. FML
Today, my cat got outside and had the bright idea to walk in the middle of the road, right as a car was coming. The driver didn't notice him, so I had to sprint over there, leap into the road, and toss my cat to safety. He's fine, aside from being soaked (he landed in a puddle), but I've felt better. FML
Today, I had to take my cat to the vet. On the way there, he managed to get out of his cage, climb into the front seat, onto my chest, and howl in my face as I tried to drive down the highway. I ended up with stitches and still got charged for missing my cat's appointment. FML
Today, while driving home I saw a few deer running beside me. I stopped to let them go in front. Instead, one face-plants, ramming into the side of my new car. FML
Today, while going for a walk, I saw two bunnies next to the road. Apparently, I was scarier than the oncoming traffic, because one of them decided to sprint into the road as I walked by. I could hear its bones crunch as it got hit by a car. FML
Today, I swerved out of the way to avoid hitting a squirrel, and in the process hit another squirrel. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should practice running animals over then. Next time you won't be all teary eyed and will be able to see the thing your running over.. instead of just hitting them by fluke. :-P

Go bury yourself. If people are wondering why evolution takes so long, you're the perfect answer. Sorry for your very small mind.

Posts like this always lead to "ANIMALS ARE AMAZING PEOPLE ARE WORTHLESS YOU MONSTER" "NO ANIMALS ARE USELESS PEOPLE 4EVAAAAA" "FFFFUUUUUUUUU" But really, if you were that distracted it would have been a better idea to pull over.

YOU DIDN'T STOP?! What about the owner?! Some ****** ran over our cat and left him dying in the road. It's dicks like you that cause the animals so slowly and painfully die. At least take it to a vets. Not just mangled in the road for its owner to find it. And PULL OVER IF YOU'RE THAT UPSET YOU ASSHOLE. It's not FYL. IT'S f the life of whoever's cat that was and f the life of the animals you left dying in the road.

You know, not every cat has an owner. There are SO many stray cats where I live!! I've seen quite a few wondering in fields no where near houses and in the woods. Not every cat has an owner (as sad as that is) and If she ran over a cat and there were no houses around and the cat was already dead and there were no tags, why waste the Vets time? Its not going to change anything. the cat would still be dead. Now if she was in a neighborhood (which I doubt because she ran over porky here), she should have stopped and tried to find the owner

well pimpin88 obviously ur cat got ran over cuz u werent doing what u are supposed to do. so dont go around trying to make ppl feel bad abt running over a STRAY cat. Please stop being such an asshole. u should of locked ur cat up in the house and dnt give me this bullshit that it was an outside cat cuz if u were doing what u were supposed to do it would be alive. I was taught in my drivers ed class not to even swerve if an animal like a cat or squirrel was in the road that way there wouldnt be a major accident with a car. So OP im sorry that u did it. its not like u did it intentionally so there is nothing u should really feel bad about

If you were that upset about it, you should have pulled over and tried to right your wrong. you ran over a cat! its not the same as accidentally running a squirrel or something. It was someone's pet. at least stop and see if its still got a chance to live (you could have taken it to an animal hospital) and if it was already dead, then find out who may have owned it. instead you just kept going and killed ANOTHER innocent animal. YDI

It could have been a stray.

Still no reason to leave it in the middle of the road for the next drivers to smear its body all over the ground.

She/he deserved it for numerous reasons imo: 1. If you hit an animal, check at least if it's still alive and if so, help. We always claim to be the only species on this planet with the ability to reason. So show something of these great accomplishments over other animals and don't act like we were born brainless. 2. If you are so upset after hitting an animal, pull over on the side of the road until you get your thoughts back together. Because her/him (didn't notice the gender) not doing that caused the second accident and made op deserve it.
