Today, my cat was hit by a car. I took it to the vet expecting the worst but they told me that she’d be fine. I was so happy I didn't even mind paying the $50 bill. The next morning my cat was dead. Having her put down humanely would have cost $45, I paid $5 extra to have her die in my kitchen. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to put my cat to sleep after she was in an accident. While I was crying hysterically, the vet asked me for $230. FML
Today, I took my cat to the vet. He said he felt a strange lump that could be serious. I got really upset and picked her up, crying. The vet then told me I had to put her down. Absolutely devastated by having to euthanize my cat, I passed out. He meant I had to put her back on the table. FML
Today, I saved a kitten from the streets, cleaned her up and asked the vet what I should do with her because she was the sweetest thing and my cat has a highly contagious illness. The vet had to put her down. FML
Today, despite me not liking cats, which my wife knew, she got a cat anyway. Her cat went for a walk outside and was hit by a car. I rushed outside to help the cat but found she was already dead, and the culprit had driven away. When my wife found out that her cat was dead, she thought I'd killed her. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I spent almost $500 adopting a senior cat and buying everything we needed to take care of him. He died 6 hours later. FML
Today, I had to explain to my boss that the reason I was sobbing hysterically as she told me that I was getting a pay raise was because I was going to the vet to have my sick and dying cat put down. Good news at a bad time. FML
Today, I was sent a letter by the vet, saying my cat was late for her yearly checkup. My cat died last week and I'd had her cremated by the same people who had sent the letter. FML
Today, I paid $325 to have the vet tell me that my 19-year-old cat ISN'T dying, she just had anxiety shits because we were gone on vacation for so long. FML
Today, I had to take my cat to the vet. On the way there, he managed to get out of his cage, climb into the front seat, onto my chest, and howl in my face as I tried to drive down the highway. I ended up with stitches and still got charged for missing my cat's appointment. FML
Today, I took my wife's cat to the vet for her yearly check up. I'm finishing the day at the hospital with multiple bite wounds and a deep gash in my leg. My wife chose to comfort her cat instead. FML

It was probably internal bleeding. Your vet is an idiot. FYL :(

I'm sorry, I don't see anything that shows you have enough veterinary experience to evaluate another doctor's diagnosis.

The fact the cat died probably would indicate it was not "fine".

How did the vet overlook internal injury? Did they get xrays? Sue! Tell them you went through emotional trauma watching your cat die from suffering!

#1: "wow that sux and first" "and first"? OK, people that claim "first" on comment pages need to seriously get a life. But mixing it in with a sympathetic statement like that? Do you even have a brain?

I pity you... And good lord, I'm very sure people who are douchebags are pressing YDI, or they're auto bots. Roll out.

#6 - the cat may have been in pain, but the OP may not have seen that; if it had been in pain, it would've been of more comfort to the OP to have her euthanised to spare her a slower death. #16 - I don't think the vet should be blamed, so many injuries can occur from being hit by a car, not all of them particularly easy to see. It could have been something like a blood clot in the brain that developed overnight. Sorry for your loss :(
