I'm so sorry! Maybe she didn't understand that she was yours and you would take her when you had a place? I understand you being upset though I don't think that it is going to help your relationship by staying mad at her over it. Unless there is a way to get the kitten back, but probably not.
I'm sorry this happened to you! How sad! :( I'm sure you do miss your kitty & I would be so freaking mad. I can't imagine anyone giving my cat away while I was gone & trusting them to care for her!
I don't know what the relationship is like between you and her, but I think you are justified in being mad at her. Hopefully it won't hurt the relationship with you and your FI in the long run, but I think you should definately have a talk with her & let her know how this has affected you.
Once again, I'm so sorry :( I hope somehow or someway you can get the kitty back! Maybe if she gave her to a close friend or something, she can explain the situation & get her back.
haha she gave my cat to their cable guy!
@Missasb - yeah I wish it was just a misunderstanding...but she was the one who offered the kitty to my fi and me. She knew my babe would take Ebony once he moved here.
I have never had a close relationship with her, but after my fi and I marry, we'll still be 1,300 miles away haha.
I was hoping it was a misunderstanding why she would get rid of the kitten. Like thinking that you didn't want it? Anyway, I would have your FI talk to her about it and let her know how upset you are about losing the kitten.
yeah, he was pretty upset about it too. Moreso about the fact that she didn't even tell him. He went to work in the morning, and came home for lunch break - when he came home, the cat was gone.
He might have told her since I was bawling over the phone! I guess the hardest part for me is to be calling something "mine" since July...then just have it be gone. I mean we can always adopt a kitty once we get married and have our own place... but still.
Yeah, that's so sad that you had your own little kitty and now it's gone. That's the worst feeling.
oh you poor thing, how disappointing for you - sending some virtual hugs because animals arent "just" pets, they can be family and your FMIl just gave yours away :(
I'm so sorry this happened! *hugs* Could there possibly be a way for her to get the kitty back? I mean, this happened recently, right? You said you found out today. It seems pretty certain that you are more attached to the kitty than the person who took it. It makes more sense for THEM to get a new cat and for you to get your kitty back!
well after talking with my fi, he is even more upset than me. He talked to his mom, and then both his brother and mom got mad at him saying that he was taking advantage of them by letting the cat stay there! If I had known it would be an issue, I would have taken Ebony with me and figured a way to make it work. My fiance is practically crying about it too. :(
Yeah they gave our kitty to the guy who put in their cable TV. Just handed her off to him.. My fi wanted his mom to call the guy and switch cats, lol, but she got mad at him. :(
I can't believe they would just hand a kitten to someone who installed cable TV! And I don't think it is fair of them to not complain about having the kitten there but then make it a big deal. Wish I could share my kitten with you. Here, a virtual kitten!

If they felt like they were being taken advantage of because of the kitty being in their house, they should have said something instead of simply giving it away out of the blue! Maybe if they were buying the kitty food and taking care of the kitty litter and didn't want to deal with that anymore they could have told you or your fiance to take on those duties. And if they weren't and the only problem they had was that the kitty was still in the house, then at least they should have said something instead of giving it away with no previous warning!
You absolutely have the right to be upset. She should try to get the kitty back. Gave the kitty to the cable guy?? What, did the guy came in and go "oh, cute kitty!" and then they were all like "you like it? take it!" and that's it?? :-\ I hope you get your kitty back...
haha guess he told them that his cat died and they were looking for another one...so she just gave him my cat...
aww @missasb - that's so cute! It really made me smile and I've been crying all day (my fi too hehe)... thanks so much girlies... I guess I just needed to vent for a sec ;)
... that stinks! I would be ticked. Although in their defense, my parents wouldn't like having to take care of a cat that they didn't want either...

While my fiance and I were dating, his parents cat had four little kittens. I am in love with cats, and his mom and sister told me that I could pick one out for myself, I felt so blessed and happy that I cried!
Well I had to keep the cat at his parents house because I was working as a live-in nanny with a family who had severe cat allergies. It's always been "my kitty" though, I had her named (Ebony Mae!) and visited her all the time.
I then had to move back home (from NY to MN) and couldn't take Ebony with me, because I was moving back in with my parents, and my mom is allergic as well. So my fiance told me that he'd take care of our kitty until he moves out to MN in March, and will just bring Ebony with him...
Well my fiance called me today and told me that, without telling him (or me!), his mother (My soon to be mother-in-law), gave Ebony away! I didn't know she was trying to get rid of the kittens, and it's been my kitten since July 2009! I sat on the phone and cried... and honestly, I'm so mad at his mom. I don't want to talk to her, and all I can say is I'm so glad there is 1,300 miles between us right now.
Am I justified in being upset?!
I miss Ebony so much :(
