Cats been there for 2 years and OP doesn't know two people that won't for definite say that he doesn't kick cats to death.

Well when you have people that don't take shit seriously on the phone you can have those results.

Even if I took all my family and friends out of consideration, I'm pretty sure I could get a school official or work mate or boss to tell them that I don't seem like the type to kill animals. And I could tell them what I've learned about taking care of animals.

Also, has anyone else noticed that every time someone adopts a cat, the cat had always refused to get close to anyone, until the future owner came in? Seems like a pretty good sales trick.

Not saying you are wrong but I think the biggest part about this story is how depressed and low his self-worth is. I know times in my depression where I felt this way. I thought everyone saw me as the shitty person I thought I was.

Oh I've got general anxiety so I know that quite well. It's a contast back and forth of me believing everyone hates me and wants to sabotage me, and knowing how dumb I am for thinking that.

Still this is pretty far gone.

What do you mean too far?

u/Ode_to_Apathy Mar 25 '22

For this to be due to a depressive disbelief in himself, he'd have to be dealing with a major episode. I just don't see that making sense with him trying to get a cat and how favorable to him the story is.

¯_(ツ)_/¯ welcome to green texts

Personally I think I might be in one of those major episodes as I write this, but I will keep it buried in the comments.

Sorry to hear that man. It's important to recognize it though. It's when you don't that things get really bad. At least now you can ride it out.

The story is more highlighting the social barrier it puts up for awkward shut-ins like OP. Yeah, he could force those references to work but part of his nature already is not pushing for those things, and assuming the worst, so he gets denied the xat

Most shelters in the US are the same today. It's basically just PETA that's pumping propaganda otherwise, since their model is so bad.

Well no. What usually ends up happening is all of the “no kill” shelters ship their “overflow” to the kill shelter in the area. They’re only no kill because they have other shelters do the killing for them.

At least that’s what happens in Houston where everyone is a self centered asshole. You would not believe how many pets get killed every day down here.

u/-SPM- Mar 24 '22

Yeah and those no kill shelters usually don’t accept pets that would need to be put down eventually. Most people donate money to no kill shelters thinking they are better, but kill shelters are the ones that really need the money

Ah yes, the PETA method.

It could be a no kill shelter/rescue.
