Today, it's my sixth day taking care of my family's seven animals while my parents are in Singapore. So far, I've emergency-called the vet twice, taken a dog to the vet once, and cleaned up liquid dog shit five times. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, both my mom and I are very ill, while her boyfriend is perfectly fine. Somehow, this means that I’m the one having to take care of my mom, myself, the household and 6 pets, while he does nothing, goes on trips and leaves dirt all over the house when he’s here. FML
Today, I started my dream job of being a veterinarian. My first day consisted of having to put down 12 dogs and 5 cats. FML
Today, I came home from the hospital after six days. Despite having a cat sitter, they managed to shit on the bathroom floor and pee on my bed in protest for being gone too long. FML
Today, I agreed to care for my girlfriend’s sister's dog. She assured us that the dog was housetrained, but when I got home from work at 07:00 AM my girlfriend was sleeping and there was not only one “accident” but five. This is going to be a fun weekend. FML
Today, I'm going to visit my mother in hospital. She broke her hip and my father refused to take her to hospital for 6 days, insisting she would get better. My dog had cancer surgery, which will cost me a whole month's salary. I’m still recovering from 2 major surgeries myself, and my kids are being total dorks. FML
Today, my mom is on vacation and I’m taking care of her pets. I also get to clean the entire house. No, she didn’t ask me to do that. It’s just that I had to hold my breath every time I opened the fridge, and there is no surface clean enough to actually touch, so I simply couldn’t help myself. FML
Today, while housesitting my neighbor's dogs the phone rang. I answered it and a voice said, "Stop checking your Facebook and take care of my dogs. They look like they need to go out." FML
Today, I got up at 5am, brushed my teeth, shaved and showered to get ready for work only to step barefoot in a huge pile of dog crap in the middle of my living room floor. I don't own a dog. FML
Today, during my shift as a vet nurse, I picked up a gorgeous cat for cuddles, only to discover it was covered with pee. And now I am too. I still have 4 hours of my shift. FML
Today, I worked a 12-hour shift. Today my parents' cat also had diarrhoea. Rather than clean it up when said cat projectile shat all through my bed, they simply closed my door and left it for me. Since it's in my room, apparently it's my problem. They can't understand why I'm pissed. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What the hell are you feeding the dogs that are making them sick. It's not that hard to take care dogs.

Who even thinks that a "that's shitty" joke is funny? They are so old and annoying.

LoL doesn't have to mean League of Legends, 22. It could also mean Laugh out Loud :O

This thread is filled with uncommon stupidity.

No offense op but it seems like you suck at animal care

Actually, diarrhea is a VERY common stress response in animals (the stress being the family leaving them and being taken care Of by someone they apparently unaccustomed to). OP may be doing nothing wrong. And anyone who owns dogs knows sooner or later they will end up with an emergency - just like with kids. Sucks it happened in OPs care.

Well you learn something new everyday and yeah seven animals is a lot to take care of.

This dog could also have some major health concerns no matter what it is fed. That being said, the parents should've told about the dog's health concerns if any.

Sounds like separation anxiety. All of my dogs have done the same thing.
daringtoride 27
I kinda agree, but I can also vividly imagine OP going slightly mad with stress LOL I, myself, am a licensed small home rescue and I currently house six dogs (only two actually belongs to me), two ferrets, a hamster, a turtle, and three birds. Feeding time can be a bit stressful to say the least :') Gotta love the days when I go outside to get the newspaper and instead either go back in with a box of kittens, a ferret in a basket, or whatever else people drop off in the night (true story.) So it can be stressing! ;)

Here's a solution! -Don't feed them for several days. -Dogs die. -No more dogs.

18- I like that solution more than the other one.

But then the solution to that would be: -Sad family.

I apologize that my sarcasm wasn't communicated to you. I love dogs dearly, and no one should have the heart to murder them. Please feed your dogs and forgive me for not adding a "jk," because that's almost as annoying as a serious comment like mine.

It was just mean.

I love how people have no shame in joking about killing another person, but when it comes to an animal, they go crazy.

#34, he was making a joke about #5's picture.
olpally 33
34- that joke went right over your head.. He was referring to the guy's profile picture as a pun. The fact that I have to explain this, is insane. Edit- 36 beat me to it. Oh well.

Nose is a GIRL.

I'm in Singapore, do you want me to inform your parents of your...shitty predicament OP? (;
free2speak 14
At first I thought your profile picture was someone squatting down to poo and ruin everyone's beach day and I was about to say that your comment matches very well with your profile picture but upon closer inspection, it just looks like someone picking up something in the water. Still, just wanted to share this.
Ryan_Jaxson 8
Hahaha that's hilarious! That guy is me, in a beach in Singapore. Picking seashells ;D
