This Mother Got Furious When The Cat Owner Refused Her Demand For Adopting His Kitten
One foster cat owner thought she was hosting a simple adoption visit, but the day took a sharp turn when a child wandered into the wrong room and fell in love with the wrong kitten.
The woman had separated her own cats from the kittens she planned to place for adoption, but a mother and her 4-year-old daughter ended up seeing the foster's personal pets instead. What started as a sweet moment quickly turned tense when the child refused to let go of the gray kitten she wanted to take home.
By the time the mother started yelling and threatening to call the police, the visit was over in the worst way possible. Here's how the whole messy encounter unfolded.
She is a volunteer fostering cats. She doesn't usually hold meetings, but this time she decided to do so.
A mother with her child stopped by to meet kittens for adoption.
The owner separated her own kittens from those available for adoption in a separate room before they entered the house.
The meeting was great, but on their way out, the little child entered the guest room without permission and saw the owner's kittens.
The child noticed the grey kitty that looked like her stuffed toy and immediately fell in love with him.
That is where the visit stopped being cute.
They asked for adoption, but the owner explained that the kitty was hers.
While the mother continued to argue, the child took the poor cat and squeezed him, allowing him no escape.
The owner tried to release the cat from the child's grip, and then the whole situation escalated.
The child's mom even threatened to call the police.
After that, the fallout spread fast.
This is similar to the late MIL cat choice that got a Redditor chewed out over the daughter’s nanny.

Others told her she should have just given the cat to the child.
But she loves her little kitty; she couldn't give it away.
The Redditors told her she had the right.
"A cat is not a thing to give away."
The cat is a family member.
Great metaphor.
They are her furry kids.
That response did not leave much room for debate.
"Holy cow, NTA!"
Definitely NTA.
The child should be taught how to treat an animal; then he can get his own pet.
Her foster organization supported her too.
Although it's natural for parents to always justify their children, they should also be more realistic. A child is exactly that, a child; it's the parent's duty to teach them basic manners.
They can't go onto others' property without approval or take other people's belongings, and allowing them to behave like that should not be acceptable. What do you think of this unpleasant encounter?
Some boundaries were crossed, and the kitten was caught in the middle.
