We all know that not everyone is good at parenting. This is why some people prefer having little or no contact with their parents or someone in their family.

It's one thing to have a parent who drives you crazy, but it's a whole other thing to have a mom who tries to steal something that belongs to you. The original poster for today's story is so pissed at her mom for trying to steal her cat.

The thing is, the OP and her BF had to move out of her brother's apartment, and they had an apartment planned, but it didn't work out. During that time of waiting until the OP and her BF gave up and were looking for another apartment, they had to live with her mom for a whole month.

According to the OP, it was torture living with her mom. A friend of the OP's mom's found a very young kitten who was tied up in a bag and tossed out in the garbage of a house half a mile away.

Not knowing what to do, this friend brought the kitten to the OP's mom, who handed her to the OP and her BF to care for her. They've had her for almost 4-5 months now, and she is a very sweet, water-loving, hyperactive baby who is living her best life.

But OP's mom tried stealing this cat, and the whole story is right below.

The headline

The OP's glad they got out of there after a month, any more would have caused her to lose her mind

This feeding caused the worst fights about how they should take care of the cat

"Oh! I wish Grandma can keep you! Maybe I can get Mommy to let you stay!

OP's mom came over to borrow BF's car since it has great air conditioning, which she demands she needs

OP's boyfriend stated the cat is not allowed outside and that it is too hot, so he needs to get her

And the comments roll in...

This redditor had loads of questions that needs to be asked

The questions roll in...

And it continues...

The cat should be microchipped

The OP should change her lock

Nipping all the cat stuff in the bud

The OP has a very clear idea of what's needed

No rush yet since the OP's not yet married

It's about the OP not being under her control

Unless the OP has health problems she didn't mention

The OP doesn't have to call a locksmith

She may be worse over a real grand kid

That would be a declaration of war

There are so many red flags all over

Giving her something to focus on even though it doesn't solve the craziness

Some redditors couldn't help but think aloud because if OP's mother treats her kitty in this manner, how would she treat OP's new baby if she decides to have children? The OP might eventually have to cut off contact with her mother, even though it's understandable why she might not want to go through the difficulty of doing so at this stage in her life.
