My parents have been gone over the last 10 days on vacation, and decided to leave their cat with me. She's normally an outside cat but I had her cleaned up so she could stay inside. This is a cat my brothers and I grew up with, and while she's super anti-social I can't help but love her.
Anyway I just finished watching Mad Men and decided to go get some water before bed. I noticed the cat wasn't in the living room or dining room, nor was she in the kitchen or laundry area. I remembered seeing my brother (who is one of my roommates) playing with her outside around midnight, and decided to look out the window. She was crying on the front porch, and had clearly been outside from the time he came in (around 12:10AM) until the time I saw her (4:15AM).
Obviously she's an outdoor cat and is used to being outside, but I'm beyond pissed right now. My parents live in a quiet suburb subdivision; plus the cat has lived there for like 7-8 years and knows the environment, she has a comfy bed in the garage, etc. My place is right on one of the busiest intersections in the city, making it not a good area to leave fucking pets outside.
I had kind of hoped we could maybe keep the cat assuming the other roommate didn't mind and my parents agreed, but now I'm definitely going to make sure it goes back to my parents when they get back later today. I'm so fucking tired of this asshole and his constant stupidity.
