dilemma

I got an email from a friend that asked if I knew anyone that would be willing to take her two cats.  I was immediately worried because I know that she loves them with the love of a thousand lovers (like pretty much every other cat owner I know) and wouldn't give them up unless it was a dire situation.  When I found out the story, it really

Nah, I don't think you're overreacting at all. There's definitely something wrong here. I agree with Sandy - it's one person controlling another and that's not a good sign. It's too bad she's not asking for relationship advice because that can be tricky to give if the person's not open to it

Aside from the clear control issues, it doesn't make any sense to me because he has a big drooly dog that she loves. They both had their pets when they got together.

Poop foot? I love it when people that I know adore their animals call them things like "the little moron." I call mine shitbird sometimes and my mom refers to all cats as axiomatically bad.

Hmm, sounds like he's just an unreasonable jackass to me. Dogs are just as gross as cats. That's part of having a pet. I'm betting the closet incident was more of a convenient excuse to freak out than an actual straw that broke the camel's back. As in, he's been looking for some reason to demand that she get rid of the cats and this just happened to come along. That way, it's easier to convince himself that his demand is justified than if he just brought it up out of nowhere

Ah yes... poop foot.

My gf has a bunny named Baxter Frits-Herbert Von Kleber. Not quite as much of a mouthful as your kitty, but certainly along the same lines. My sister let my nephew name their cat and he came up with Fluffy Trouble Rabies. Ok, so he was 4 at the time.

Those are excellent names.

Fluffy Trouble Rabies is an awesome cat name.
