So I (16F) always wanted a cat and I wanted this specific breed.
I really liked how the purebred ones looked so for like 3 years I begged and begged my mom for a cat. She said yes earlier this year and I was so happy!
I remember at one point I was talking to my moms boyfriend about cats and how he would react if we ever got one and he mentioned how he was allergic to cats and really hated them. I didn't think it would be a big deal that we were getting a cat so I didn't mention it to him that we were actually getting one. He doesn't live in our house so I didn't really care.
So yaddah yaddah I found a breeder, got in contact with them, got my mom to pay the $100 deposit and we waited until August to pick up the kitten. She cost $2000 so my mom had to save up for like 2 months for her and we drove to Canada to pick her up so it was an awesome road trip (16 hours in total over the span of 4 days)
So my moms boyfriend recently found out that we got a kitten and he got super upset and started arguing to my mom asking to, get rid of it and how he thought she knew he was allergic because of the conversation we had and then now my mom is upset at me for not mentioning it to her.
So now my mom is threatening to get rid of the kitten because of how upset her boyfriend is getting over it. Like hes literally throwing a big fit he isnt even that allergic
TL;DR: got expensive cat without my moms boyfriend knowing and now hes angry because hes allergic and hates cats. Now mom is upset at me and threatening to get rid of cat
EDIT4 days later: so I like talked to my mom about how I felt and how I really love the new cat and she also agreed so we’re keeping the cat so that’s cool. She said she’ll just go to her boyfriends house instead of him coming over so that’s cool too 👍
