For siblings that become the forgotten member of the family, it's tough to watch the golden child slide through life without worries or cares. Obviously, family drama is pretty inescapable, and can be taxing both emotionally and financially. One Redditor, u/TWoldCat, was the outcast of the family and was alienated from her family since a young age by her toxic mother and golden girl sister. However, after she had started a new life without them, she was dragged back into the drama.
TWold was forced to make an impossible choice when it came to her dysfunctional family. She could either save her ailing 21-year-old cat, who had been her closest companion growing up, OR she could help bail out her financially irresponsible sister, who she had been estranged from for years.
For context, the cat needed dental surgery but was otherwise in excellent health. Twold's vet assured her that he had several happy years left in the tank if they were able to provide dental surgery for a bad tooth. Also, the sister had blown her off for years and they essentially never spoke until the charging into Twold's home two weeks ago, begging for money to cover her late mortgage payments due to her husband's poor financial investments in NFT's. Because they were behind a few months on payments, the sister was about to be kicked out of her home with nowhere else to go.
To be fair, according to Reddit, Lucy made the right call by ousting her sister, saving her cat, and blocking her angry family members online after they bashed TWold's final call. Frankly, it seems clear that TWold's cat was more familial to her than anyone else was, proving that blood is not thicker than furballs.
