@Butterflykisses24 That's what I want to do, but I am so conflicted about it.

@melpug don't be.Your mom claimed those cats.

melpug · 26-30, F

@Butterflykisses24 I completely agree with you, but she says that if they are "her" cats, she will just give them away. I'm not sure if shes bluffing or not...

you're not being petty. your mom is just making things complicated.

your mom won't let them go to a shelter, your mom won't let them go with you... they are your mom's cats, no matter what she says or how you feel.

Bottom line is you are not in a position to properly care for any pets for the next three years. One last time, tell your Mom they are not yours, school has priority, and she can do with the cats what she wishes. Then walk away.

I'd fight to the death over my cats

melpug · 26-30, F

@CallmeHopelessNotRomantic I would, but my mom is a real stickler

CallmeHopelessNotRomantic · 46-50, F

@melpug I had the same thing happen with a puppy.
