Late-working person brings in the neighbor's cat at 2AM after finding him frozen on the fire escape, sets to find the feline a foster family since this isn't the first time he's abandoned outside in the cold.

We don't understand people who adopt a cat only to ignore them.

If we're honest with ourselves (and with you), we think we could never understand these types of people. Even if you bring us some contradicting arguments, we don't think anything would suffice to change our minds on the subject. Now, don't get us wrong, we know adopting a cat is a big responsibility. It can truly change a person's life. And sometimes the adoption comes as a surprise (especially when you seem to be randomly assigned by the CDS). But whatever the situation is - we can't understand people who adopt a cat only to let them wander around in freezing temperatures, and more than once.

Look, we get that. We once forgot our cat was outside on the balcony before we closed it. It happens to the best of us. But the minimum required of us, as cat pawrents, is making sure the cat is safe inside before we go to sleep. And this is exactly what we did, preventing the situation of a cat stuck outside on a balcony for an entire night. Really. The minimum. Is this really too much to ask of cat pawrents?

It's one thing to think about the stray cats who need to brave this winter's blizzards. It's like a fist closes on our hearts when this thought crosses our minds. Thinking of cats outside during the winter is a sad thought as it is.
And it's a whole other thing actually seeing a freezing feline outside in the cold - and literally just outside of your apartment. It's a situation no cat lovers could endure - not without trying their best to help the kitty, at least.

Let's put it like this: If you're a cat pawrent, you went through all the trouble of adopting a cat, raising them, sharing your space with them, but after that you just… sort of forget them outside? You're not in a position to be a cat pawrent. That's it. Period. You can't just let your cat roam in below-freezing temperatures. It's absurd. And definitely if you simply “forgot” to bring your cat back inside after you let them out. When you're cozy and warm between four walls, under a roof - don't you wonder where your cat is if you haven't seen them before you go to sleep in your fluffy blanket, protected from the cold? We know that we, as cat pawrents, always wonder where our cats are. It's a basic demand of someone who wants to raise a cat.
