Today, I saw my little brother playing with my new kitten. He is only five and isn't very gentle so I took the cat away and told him "You can't play with the cat! I don't think he likes you very much!" in a joking tone. The cat then bit and clawed my face. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was lying in bed with my cat. I must have looked at him the wrong way or something, because he hissed and savagely clawed at my face without warning. FML
Today, my little brother was playing with my cat, getting it to chase a laser pointer. He thought it would be funny to shine the laser pointer over my nuts. FML
Today, I was having a playful fight with my brother. I made the point that our dog likes me better than him. To this, my dog jumped onto the sofa, turned to me and vomited on my face. FML
Today, my older brother told me that the only reason I like cats is because they control minds. I laughed. He was serious. FML
Today, I was asked to take care of my 3 year-old little brother. After 15 minutes of him screaming and me trying to keep him entertained, he started throwing his toy cars at me. He hit me in the mouth, and I started to bleed. My parents yelled at me for "not controlling him." FML
Today, I was playing around with my sister's kitten. As a joke, I put him underneath the sheets and farted. He attacked my nuts. FML
Today, I noticed my kitten was growling and twitching in his sleep. I tried to wake him up by gently prodding him. He responded by waking up and attacking my face. FML
Today, my 20-year-old sister is taking care of my cat while I am out of state. She sent a photo of him "playing in a silly way" with her kitty. I then had to very seriously explain to her that in the photo, my cat and her cat were trying to make more cats. FML
Today, I meowed at my cat and he got really close to me. I then meowed again and he punched me in the face. Them's fightin' words, it seems. FML
Today, my son told me he was afraid of monsters under his bed. When I poked my head under to show him nothing was there, the family cat sprang out and clawed me in the face. Now I have a gash on my chin, and my son refuses to go anywhere near his bed. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You didn't deserve that. But maybe next time instead of telling him that he can't go near it because it doesn't like him, teach him how to handle it properly.

Karma. And cats have a sense of irony.

YDI for being over protective about your cat. Your brother's only five. He should feel some freedom.

lol @ "cats suck" comments. Just because you randomly like dogs more doesn't mean they are better... I can't stand dogs.

Kittens LIKE playing rough. Your cat was probably having fun with your brother. Let them play. Also, to everyone ragging on him for having a cat, cats are infinitely better than dogs. Cats at least have a mind of their own.

Wrong. Cats are disgusting. At least my dogs know to go to the bathroom outside.

#14: +1 You should have just explained to your brother that he needs to be gentle. Unless the cat was trying to get away then telling him it doesn't like him will just upset him. Also, in my experience, cats aren't big on being picked up unless they're quite used to the person, so yeah, going to scratch you. Kiddies: leave the "DOGS/CATS R BETER THAN CATS/DOGS" with seven-year-olds, where it belongs, 'kay?

I love both cats and dogs so I can guess what happened here. You either scared it by taking it away too quickly, or your tone freaked it out. It probably wasn't because it didn't like you. But like someone else said, just tell your brother to be more careful next time. Show him instead of telling him he can't play with it.

YDI if it's the family's cat, which i'm assuming considering you said "you can't play with THE cat" not "MY cat". don't do that just because he's little. just tell him to be gentle, he doesn't know better.
