I had lunch with a friend who I haven't seen in a few months. He looked particularly down, so I asked if everything was ok. He mumbled that his cat died. So I said, "That sucks man, did you manage to take him to the vet? Did they put him down?" I knew his cat was pretty old, but I didn't realize it was time.
He gave me a weird look and responded with, "Uh, not my cat. My dad." I had misheard him and thought he was talking about his cat. Oops.
