‘She needed help finding housing’: Woman agrees to house her partner’s unstable 19-year-old sister on the condition of helping with their cat, she doesn’t, then throws a fit when the couple tells her her behavior was disrespectful

One of our favorite things about having a cat is that cats bring peace into their homes. Just by existing, by napping, by sunbathing, by gently purring next to you, they make you calmer. You get into a certain rhythm with them, and everyone gets used to it. Your cat loves you and the routine you bring them and vice versa. And so, when someone new steps into that routine, it can take some adjusting – on everyone’s part. 

An effort has to be made, by the intruding partner, to get into the cat’s routine, to become a part of it. So, when this sister was invited to stay in this cat’s home – and yes, it was the cat’s home before it was hers – and made no effort, problems arose. But instead of taking the criticism, when the cat’s owners told her that she was behaving disrespectfully, she had a fit so big it’s kind of ridiculous.
