Today, my dad killed my pet rats. They were playing on the sofa, and he thought they were vermin. This would have been understandable if the reason he came over wasn't to meet them, and they hadn't been wearing bright pink walking harnesses. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents, and now they have a dead rabbit because I sat on it. FML
Today, my cat came through my window, holding a dead rat in her mouth and dropped it in my pile of clothes. I then asked my dad if he could get the dead rat out of my room. After looking for an hour, he couldn't find it. Guess the rat wasn't dead after all. FML
Today, I found out my dad ate my pet rabbit two years ago. He said he ran away. FML
Today I opened the door for my cat and he brought in a rat with him. Now the rat is hiding in my house. FML
Today, while I was pet-sitting for my boyfriend's parents, one of their dogs killed one of their kittens. FML
Today, I walked in on my parents discussing how to kill our cat, and how to make it look like an accident. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house, meeting his family for the first time. We were all standing in the kitchen when suddenly a small white and brown mouse ran by. Out of natural instinct, I stomped on it. Turns out, it was his little sister's pet mouse that had gotten out of its cage earlier. FML
Today, I walked in on my dad introducing his stuffed gorilla to his cat. FML
Today, my pet rat had babies. We've only ever owned one rat. FML
Today, I came home to find a mouse in the garage. Frantic, I killed it. My 7-year-old son came home from soccer, and started crying because he couldn't find the class pet, Mr. Whiskers. I killed my son's class pet. FML

Your dad is a bit of an asshole, isn't he?

Those rats were obviously pets because of their harnesses. I have never seen a sewer rat or any other kind wearing a harness. Very rude of your dad.

Good for your dad. They are disease ridden rodents not pets.

You're an idiot. What OP probably had were DOMESTICATED RATS, as in the ones you can actually pet and keep. Not the ones you find in the ******* sewer. Learn a bit, will you ****-face?

Your ignorance is showing, #131. They're completely different species than wild rats - cleaner than cats and more intelligent than dogs.

first off it's weird that your dad came over to meet your rats, 2nd why the hell would The have walking harnesses? Rats aren't the type of animal you "walk"

I'm so sorry --- what a horrible thing to happen to your little ratties - I bet they were adorable in their little harnesses! I hope your dad feels like a heel!

Why were you having pet rats in the first place?

Do some research before you ask a stupid question like that. Rats are highly intelligent and can develop a strong bond to their owners.
