'She's threatening to report me to the landlord': 25-year-old woman tells her roommate that has to get rid of her recently-adopted bottle-fed kitten because she is allergic to cats, even though she currently has 2 cats herself

As people who love cats and cannot live without cats, if we ever were to live with roommates again, then one of the first things that we would check before moving in with them is if our roommates are allergic to cats. Let us save everyone the drama in advance. We don't want our roommates asking us to get rid of our cats or to keep our cats locked in our rooms because being around because we didn't clear this subject before moving in together. Of course, that's not quite the situation in this story.

Here, there was seemingly no question about whether any of the roommates were allergic to cats because they were living with cats already. And when one of the roommates adopted a kitten, she didn't think twice about it, so when her roommate - who already owns two cats by the way - suddenly said that they are allergic, they were very much taken off guard.

There are so many strange red flags in this story. The probably fake allergy is just one of them. The threats to the landlord. The existence of the other two cats. We understand why this roommate might not be the happiest with someone showing up with a new pet in their house without warning, but her behavior is all off.

For the future though, it is our personal recommendation that, no matter the situation in your house or in your contract, you should still warn your roommate if you're going to be bringing in a new pet. Just to be a decent roommate yourself.
