Today, I adopted a cat, thinking it would make my life a little less lonely. Within an hour, the cat ran away. Not even animals want to be around me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I don't know anyone in the city where I just moved. I felt really lonely so I picked up my cat to try and cuddle with her. She freaked out and ripped my face apart. She ran then away to go play with the cats outside. Even my cat has more friends than me. FML
Today, I bought a dog to make me feel less lonely. He ran away. FML
Today, I adopted a stray cat that kept showing up at my door. Turns out, it belongs to my neighbours. It wasn’t lost; it just doesn’t like living with them. Now, they want it back. FML
Today, I've been trying to adopt a cat with little success since my last one died. My other cat, who had grown attached to him when she realized he was dying, has been lazier and more prone to seeking attention than before since he passed away. I now know cats can suffer from depression. I feel bad now. FML
Today I adopted a dog. He ran away the same day. FML
Today, ever since I had to rehome my cat because he was really mean, I've been wanting to get another one to replace him. I remembered a particular cat I found at the adoption center who seemed to like me a lot, and I decided I wanted to adopt her. When I got there, I found out she unexpectedly died yesterday. FML
Today, I realized that since I started working full time, the only friend I have left is my cat. Lonely and bored out of my mind, I told him about my day. He decided to end the conversation by shitting on the floor. FML
Today, I got a new cat for my birthday. It ate my bird right when we got home, then it ran away. FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend a cat. I now have a cat and no girlfriend. FML
Today, I got a new cat. He's outrageously clingy. Like, "extremely unhealthy obsession with me" clingy. I just wanted an emotional support animal, but it looks like I have become an emotional support animal instead. I feel terrible for trying to get him to not want to be with me all the time. FML

You should be very careful to keep a new pet indoors till it’s accustomed to its new home.

Sounds like you need to get a fish. If it tries to run away, it dies. If your presence causes fish suicide, you might want to change you wardrobe, your haircut and your personality.

I agree. Usually when you get a new let, or if you move, you keep the cat inside for a few days, or even up to a week.

Cats are not friendly or loyal. Not your fault.

Should have gotten a dog. They're much more loyal.
