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

Today, I ignored my cat's incessant meowing, and pushed him away every time he wanted to be petted. The next time I walked downstairs I found him dead. FML

Sorry Mr Whiskers
Today, my overly-attached 14-year-old cat wanted attention while I was in a heated Skype argument with my girlfriend. Worked up from the fight, I raised my voice and said, "Not now, go away!" He ran to his little bed, had a heart attack and died. I was a complete dick to my cat in his last moments. FML
Sorry kitty
Sorry little buddy
Today, my cat sat on me, 30 minutes before I had to go to work. When I picked him up almost immediately after he got comfortable so I could get ready, he looked and sounded absolutely crushed. FML

Today, my cat head-butted me awake as usual. I reached to pet him, but it wasn't his face I touched. It was the still-twitching corpse of the disemboweled rat he held in his jaws. FML

Today, my cat attempted to make up for my insomnia with a dead mouse. I have no idea where he got it. FML

Today, I pretended to cry in front of my cat because she doesn't cuddle with me anymore. Yeah, I tried to guilt-trip my cat into loving me. FML

Obey, human
Today, after struggling to fall asleep due to stress, my cat decided to wake me up by standing on me and meowing until I got up. Just for me to show him that my boyfriend had already put food in his dish. FML

Today, my cat died. But, before he could bite the dust, he left a goodbye present on my bed: a decapitated baby rabbit. FML

Today, my cat keeps walking into my room and screaming at me to pay attention to him. When I try to do so, he moves away. Then he yells at me from a distance. I don't wanna play this game. FML

That's stupid. Cats don't think. Tired from exhaustion? Maybe. A mini stroke? Maybe. Died and came back to life? Probably not but maybe. Played dead cuz you were annoying it so you would leave it alone? No

Really?

Actually, cats do often use ignoring as a way to manipulate people or show their displeasure. This is just an extension of that. My cat always plays hard to get and ignores me whenever I've been away for a while. They are accustomed to receiving a certain kind of attention and if they don't get it, they react by not giving any back.

76- are you retarded? Cats have a frontal lobe and a neocortex, just like us. If they couldn't think, their relatives wouldn't be able to manipulate and stalk large beasts. This kind of goes along with what deloria was saying.

Anyone else expect another line to say: "and then I took a closer look and he wasn't playing"

My cat does that to my daughter sometimes. Or she'll hide in a place we can't get to. Cats are like that. They are anti-social and will deal with you when they want to. Don't take it personally.
