Today, I was making tea when I smelled something burning. My very fluffy cat had put his tail right next to the open flame and burnt his fur. Now I have a semi-hairless cat and a very smelly apartment. FML

There should be a "your cat deserved it" button lmao! I'm rolling this shit is too funny... This is why you get a dog

Why is your cat so close to the flame to begin with and near your tea which you're going to drink..

They might have turned their back for a couple of seconds - cats can be a nightmare when it comes to jumping up near fire and other dangers. Plus I interpreted "tea" as in the meal rather than a drink; I could be wrong but I doubt someone would be using an open flame to make a brew.

There are tea kettles that sit on the stove top, and there are gas stoves. It really isn't that hard to imagine when you put the two together.

I said YDI. Your sweet kitty should never have been anywhere near the flames to begin with. YOu NEVER EVER leave open flames of any kind unattended, especially with children and/or animals in the home. Please be more careful. Instead of bitching about the smell you could be homeless with a dead cat. Thank GOD he was ok. You need to be more careful or there may not be a next time...

You realize that cats can jump on the counter when you turn around? I grew up with a gas stove, so unless you turn it off every time you leave the room that doesn't work very well. I never touched the stove because I was told NOT to.

Is what u get for owning cats.

My cat has done the same exact thing...

This is more of FMCL then FML

This is why you NEVER let the cat up on the counter, they could get hurt, and their feet are unsanitary.
