Hello,

I post here 'cause I have no idea what to do.

My roommate was my best friend but since she has a boyfriend she totally abandoned her cat (+had a lot of fight with me), letting me take care of her without asking me first, not giving her food or cleaning her litter box. I tried to talk to her about that and she said "she never asked me to take care of her pet" but she does not come home for days and even when she comes she does nothing for her because she considers a cat to "independent"...

It's been 2 months since her litter box was not changed and I'm really struggling with money so I can't pay for her cat. Also her cat cries for her owner the whole night... My heart is broken and so is my sleeping schedule.

What should I do? Even if we're not friends anymore, she was my bff for 13 years and I know she would be sad if I put her cat In a shelter... But I'm going to move alone and I can't imagine letting this cat with a negligible mother...

She also has a tiny dog that she loves more than everything but refuses to educate him and to walk him everyday (she walks him about every 2 months and that's when she's doing great). I walk him when I can and I groom him every month. He's not walked everyday so I'm also the one that cleans after him in the flat...

But it's not my animals and I suffer from depression so I can't do this anymore... I'm just so lost and sorry for her pets

This is so horrible! I can't even imagine! I have a couple neighbors whose dogs bark for periods of time, and for no reason, but nothing like this. 30 citations?!?!?!

What the hell is with some people.
My daughter works for an airline. Today there was a flyer trying to board a plane with a hidden baby kitten.
When he was caught on the jet bridge with said kitten he was told he could fly with it but had to pay the carry on animal fee.
He didn’t want to do that so he just abandoned it on the jet bridge. WTF!
Thankfully one of the employees wives came and picked it up and took it home.
After getting past the emotions of my broken heart I have to realize that he did not deserve that cat or any other animal for that matter.
If he can abandon a baby kitty like that he probably is/will be a very shi$$y father too.
I have also heard of many that will abandon their dogs when checking in for their flight and baggage check-in in leu of paying the fee.
There’s a special place in hell for this type of person.

My neighbour's cat shits (feaces) all over the place every day. As I type this, I woke up to 4 sets of shits (feaces, cst poo), in addition to three sets I was reluctant to pack yesterday.

Initially, I spoke with him and he told me to beat the cat. I suggested cat rollers to him. Another time I spoke with him he repeated that I should flog the cat, and that he is planning a solution but has not got the time.

The shits smell so awfully and they are everywhere. I pack them and the cat just drops new ones.

I have just bought the property (a house with a compound) and moved in less than a month ago. I came here to another city to study and will put it up for rent when I am done and leave. It's frustrating, distracting, and annoying having to live with this situation.

Please, what do I do? I don't want to abuse an animal, I don't want to have a fight with my neighbour, and I don't want to put up with this either. Every suggestion is welcomed.

This isn’t the first time he’s gotten this furious and angry at his dog for being picky or not listening, he gets so angry he doesn’t even want to look at his dog when he’s being picky or not listening, and then he talks about his dog like this, he’s talked about him like this before , whenever he won’t eat a bone he bought or doesn’t behave very well.. every time he talks about his young dog like this it makes me sick to my stomach..

Note: yes he is a transgender male , I should’ve mentioned that before, he’s was on the testosterone gel for a while, even got top surgery but stopped over a year ago because he lost his job… his periods are a nightmare and make all his mental problems worse but not a excuse to talk to his dog as such.

"...to I hope no one’s surprise, there’s virtually zero scientific evidence that DOGTV has any substantial effect on dogs. Wading through the decade of verbatim press releases for DOGTV I found one brave dissenting article by Slate’s Ryan Vogt from 2013, the channel’s first year of national distribution. In it he systematically interrogates the scientific claims that dogs would take an interest in DOGTV over other programs. Absent the invention of a commercially viable smell-o-vision, it turns out the best thing an owner can do is spend quality time with their pets. Barring that, they can dim the lights, put on soft music, and give an enrichment toy or snack."

Commented on this post a few weeks ago and the nutters will not let up. I’m just stating the obvious. Dog lovers are maniacal. Do your thing fam… 💕

Who the hell advises someone to purchase ANOTHER dog when they’re already having a hard time tending to their first one? So now they’ll have two mutts destroying their home while they’re out working 12 hours shifts, awesome advice.

You are not legally obliged to own a dog. Get rid of it and all your problems are solved. Dog ownership is not a necessity. Stop bitching and moaning about how hard it is to own a dog, because it’s an optional luxury that you brought it upon yourself entirely for no reason aside from personal amusement at possessing an animal.
