How should I handle this situation with my upset friend?

Yesterday my best friend and I were texting and she randomly sends me a picture of her cat. I responded "He has evil eyes in that picture!" My friend responded we can no longer be friends. I responded "lol" thinking she was joking, but she never responded back last night. Today at school we talked before class a little, but at lunch she said I couldn't sit at her table because I was mean and I can't sit with her again until I stop being a mean person.

I have no idea why she is annoyed with me. We are sarcastic all the time and I have known her for years so I know there isn't something deeply special about her cat. Any suggestions on how I should handle this? She has made me really think bad about myself and that maybe I am a mean person.

    IT IS NOT ABOUT THE CAT DUMMY! you need to consider other factors, maybe someone had told her something incorrect about you to her which led her to that conclusion that you are a "mean person". Consider some possibilities and talk to her face to face about the situation. Another thought maybe is that you replied with "lol" after she said she doesn't want to be friends with you anymore, that may come off as you don't care about your friendship.

    People text too damn much and don't communicate in depth anymore. Then they get bent out of shape over interpreting things the wrong way.
