Redditor Shares How Her Loyal Cat Stuck By Her Side After Breaking Off Her Engagement
Some cats act like they do not care about anyone, until the moment their person is hurting. That is exactly what happened to Redditor r/amaranthinelux, who ended her engagement after discovering her partner had been unfaithful.
She was devastated, and while she was trying to process the breakup, her cat stayed close and refused to leave her side. The post struck a nerve with readers, especially cat owners who know that sometimes the quietest pets show up the biggest when life falls apart.
Her story is a reminder that cats can be far more affectionate than people give them credit for, and the comments quickly filled with similar moments of feline loyalty. Read on.

Here's how Reddit users reacted to r/amaranthinelux's story:
Cats are great pets if you pay close attention.

They constantly want attention, even though they love pretending they don't.

Cats don't like to be alone and are quite needy.

Cats also deserve company; it's unfair for them to stay alone.

This user's story is quite heartwarming, and cat parents will be able to relate to it:

Some people don't deserve to live on Earth.

The cat was able to immediately spot the problem and attempted to help.

They will judge the hell out of you but also give you affection.

This user's cat prevented them from ending it all.

They have way more soul than a lot of human beings.

Cat love is the sweetest kind of love out there!

Cats can feel when you don't like them or don't like cats in general.

Cats will give you the love you need, sometimes in ways you don't really think about.

They can feel your stress and sadness and sometimes try to make you feel better.

Cats are wonderful pets, and some people who consider themselves to be non-cat people really need to reconsider everything they know about them and try to give them a second chance. Cats can be as loving as dogs, if not more loving in some cases, and people really need to see that.
You can see in the stories above that people received immense help from their cats during some of the most difficult times in their lives. Cats can be wonderful, loving pets, but people misunderstand them most of the time and don't give them enough space, time, and patience.
