It's such a confusing situation to be in, so we're not exactly blaming the girlfriend for “lashing out”, as she puts it. Look, we're not relationship advisers by any means, but when you're excited about something so pure, so selfless, as adopting a cat - especially when you talk about it to such a close person who also has cats - we'd also be so confused if they insisted on disapproving. And such confusion can make a person “lash out”, that's basic psychology. Should she lash out? Probably not. But if she yelled at him, we can see the depths from which it came from.

Raising the red flag there is correct. Unfortunately, not everyone who loves cats necessarily loves humans the same. We'd like to think that all cat people are lovely, but sometimes, even the fact that you have three cats of your own isn't an indicator of how you act inside a relationship. And all this behavior on the part of the boyfriend seems wrong, to put it lightly. So this red flag right there? It's in a correct space, in our humble opinion.

29-year-old boyfriend tries to prevent 28-year-old girlfriend from adopting a cat, despite them not living together and that he has his own three cats: 'I asked his opinion, not for permission.'
We have to say before we start, that we're not relationship advisers. We never pretended to be, and we're not about to start now. But we have to admit that we've never thought a couple's relationship could become so brittle over this kind of cat adoption. And no, it's not the tale as old as time where the couple moves in together but one of them dislikes the cat. This couple here? They don't even live together. But does it end here? No, because it's not about "My girlfriend's cat doesn't like me, what advice can you give me?" sort of situation. It's just a boyfriend who doesn't want his girlfriend to adopt a cat.
But get this kicker - they don't even live together. It's a boyfriend trying to prevent his girlfriend from adopting the cat she wants, in her apartment, under her responsibility. But get this kicker (2) - he has three cats of his own. You understand? He's not a cat-hater. Is he a control freak? Is he jealous of the attention his girlfriend will give the cat? We don't know - and this is why it's so fascinating.
