So I 37f was very close to my 37f cousin as we were born within months. Early this year her then fiance kicked her out to move his side chick in. Becky then asked to move in with me.

I have a cat that I found hiding inside my car. Gar is my baby and I adore him. He was a little hesitant when Becky moved in but warmed up to her. Gar started acting weird. I wasn’t sure what was up so I took him to the vet. She said it might be a little anxiety still over Becky.

July, she started making comments about thinking she was allergic to Gar as her eyes were itchy and watery. I felt bad telling her I’d buy her allergy medicine. But she said they weren’t helping. So I started cleaning more trying to reduce the hair and dander more. I asked Becky if things were better and she said slightly but she was still suffering. She asked me to confine him to my bedroom so the common rooms were clear of him, I told her no.

I had to leave for a few days for a baby shower. My plan was to go to the shower then visit with my friend. Half way through the shower my phone rang. I didn’t know the number and figured if it was important they’d leave a message, and they did. I excused myself to listen, finding out it was a shelter the next county over. Apparently a woman dropped off my cat saying they found him. Gar is microchipped thank god.

The girl behind the counter explained and I just knew it was Becky. I arrived home and Becky seen me from the garage. Her face looked panicked as I got out. She said she was sorry but Gar got out and she hadn’t found him.

I said weird as “blank” county animal shelter said they had Gar. She shifted a little, when I asked what really happened. That was when the word vomit started. It ranged from her allergies to Gar being under foot all the time, to the stench of the litter box. I told her I have Gar and that she has two days to leave, I’m sure her mom would take her back. The waterworks started before she screamed stomping inside grabbing her keys and leaving. That was a week ago.
