I had my parents watch my cat my first year in college because I couldn’t have her in my dorm. Two months from me bringing her up to live with me and they give her away without telling me. They’ve been bad before, but my heart is broken now. Here is a text exchange

So sorry, that sucks and was a cruel thing for them to do.

My mom gave up custody of me to the state when I was 16, because she was an incompetent parent. So they put me in an all girls "placement center", which is basically just jail but you get to wear your own clothes. I was there for a year and she dumped my cat at a shelter and didn't tell me. She had a cat of her own already, they got along just fine. She just did it to hurt me. There's many things I'll never forgive my mother for, and that's definitely one of them. I'm sorry you had to go through it.

!explanation

Ive always had problems with my parents. My dad was emotionally abusive and my mom, although not abusive, always covered for him. I went to the highschool that my mom taught at, and I told her that I was going to speak to the school counselor about what I was going through. My mother wouldn’t let me because “I work there and it would make me look bad”. In one of my fathers rare nice moments he agreed to let me adopt a cat, under the terms that I would take care of her. I was 16. I took care of the cat, and the cat was my only friend when shit hit the fan at home, I often cried with the cat. As soon as I graduated highschool I decided to get the hell out. I moved away to a state university around 3 hours away. My parents agreed to take care of the cat while I lived on campus and I agreed to take her when I moved off campus in my second year. I spent my first year of college basically starving while I tried to support myself in a new city where I didn’t know anyone. I finally got a job and was doing better. My mom called me today and after a bunch of bullshit told me that they gave away my kitten and that they refuse to tell me where. I was supposed to take the cat in August. I would’ve figured out how take her now if they had told me they were planning this. I have tried to track her chip, but can’t. I’ve called shelters back near their house, nothing. I don’t know what to do and my heart is broken.
