“He's not your cat!”: A neighbor's friendly hello to wandering cat triggers pawrent's furious meltdown

This neighborhood drama is truly a catastrophe. After a saga involving rescuing a kitten, vet bills, and tense adoption talks, you'd think things would calm down. Instead, the drama shifted to a new level of petty. The neighbor's cat is curious and friendly and likes to visit the rescuer's yard, lured by fresh catnip and kind words. But every time the cat so much as pauses near the fence, the cat's pawrent rushes outside in a panic, calling him back like he's being cat-napped.

The situation boiled over when the cat stopped for a sniff of catnip and ignored his pawrent's call. Furious, she marched over, shouted saying the cat isn't hers and accused the rescuer of being psycho. All for offering a little greenery and a hello. She even phoned her husband mid-meltdown, as if tattling would solve it. Somehow, the neighbor twisted this into a personal attack, convinced she's been wronged because her cat wanted to say hello and get some pets. And now, the rescuer is stuck living next door to a pawrent who turns every friendly meow into a full-blown catastrophe.
