Today, my sister came over for a visit. I was going to surprise her with the news that I had spontaneously gotten a cat. The first thing she told me when she came in was that she ran over my neighbor's cat. None of my neighbors have cats. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my cat, that I've had for 3 years, is actually my neighbor's missing cat. FML
Today, I woke up to a cat licking my face. I don't have a cat. I quickly put the cat out the front door and went back to sleep. When I woke up later, I remembered that I had agreed to take care of my sister's cat for a week. I looked out the door, but the cat is nowhere to be found. FML
Today, my neighbor let me know that they've been taking care of my cats while I was away, including letting them in and out of my house. I don't own a cat. 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 was over at a friend's house feeding her cats while she was on vacation. After feeding the four of them, I found an extra cat under the sofa. Thinking it was an intruding stray, I kicked it out. She actually has 5 cats. FML
Today, I found out that my upstairs neighbor has a cat. I was blessed with this knowledge when she threw several piles of used kitty litter and cat poop over her balcony and onto my patio. FML
Today, my family came back from holiday to discover that my little sister had messed with the cat flap before we left. Several stray cats were able to come in, but were unable to get out, and left shit in various areas around the house. FML
Today, while I was driving around the neighborhood, I passed my neighbors' house only to see their dog with a full-grown dead cat in its mouth. Only one family owns a cat in our neighborhood. FML
Today, I stayed the night at a friend's house for the first time. I went to get water from the kitchen when I saw a cat staring at me. I looked back and it ran off. I told my friend about it. He doesn’t have a cat. FML
Today, my neighbor knocked on my door and asked if I'd seen her cat. I helped her search the hallway, basement, and garden for 30 minutes. We finally found it sitting inside my apartment, where I had apparently been living with it for three days without noticing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I agree with #1. But your sister is a bitch for not watching where she drives.

most ppl keep their NEW KITTENS inside, or at least not at the road.. It sucks, but some really bad decisions on your part :(

don't let your cats outside. i don't care what everyone here is saying, outside cats have shorter life spans, are exposed to more diseases, decimate local small wildlife populations, and are generally less friendly and not as good pets as indoor cats. if you don't want to keep your pet indoors, or outdoors under supervision only, then don't get one.

Definition of spontaneously- Arising from a natural inclination or impulse and not from external incitement or constraint. Thus it just means that she was not planning on purchasing the cat and just did it on a whim (A sudden or capricious idea; a fancy.) Duh. It is sad that I had to spell that out for you.

As everyone else said, kind of asking for it by having it as an outdoor cat. There's already enough outdoor cats; claim one of them as yours. Don't adopt one, then boot it out. It isn't fair to do to a dog so why is it for a cat? I mean, no one deserves it but you /were/ being irresponsible enough for it to happen.

Outdoor vs. indoor, kitten vs. cat, dead, alive, adopted vs. purchased, blah-dee-blah-blah-blah. I think the most troubling thing about this FML was that the OP thought this was some treat for her sister (surprise, I got a cat, let's crack open the balloons and the asti spumante) - and that she had taken some big leap into spontaneity with this acquisition. Is the OP playing Juliette Lewis' role in some real-life reenactment of "The Other Sister" here? Because, I've got to tell ya, I don't get a tingle up my leg when family members buy pets...

How would you like it if you were never allowed to go outside, and every time you did, you get told to get away from there, and are then picked up/hit.
