This tale of sisterly betrayal is a doozy! A young woman tells the story of when her sister stole her cat!
Family Bonds
OP (the original poster) has always been close to her younger sister, even though the latter is entitled and spoiled.
Growing up, Sophie got treated better than the OP, and she always got anything she wanted.
She Always Got Her Way
Nobody in the family ever said no to Sophie, and if she did not get her way, she would pout, sulk, cry, or whine until someone caved.
Despite her behavior, OP continued to have a close relationship with Sophie and even gave her a house key for emergencies.
She Wanted a Furry Friend
OP decided that she wanted a companion to keep her company during the day.
She thought of getting a cat and spent a few days researching the proper way to care for one, including vet care, the best food, grooming, and dealing with different temperaments.
She Got All the Stuff
She also bought everything she needed to care for her new pet, including food, an automatic water bowl, a bunch of toys, catnip, a cat bed, a cat tree, and a few other things.
Time to Adopt
Once OP was ready, she started looking for cats to adopt. She decided that she wanted a cat, not a kitten, and went to the second shelter she visited.
That was where she found Freya, a pure white kitty that caught her attention from a distance.
When she went over to Freya’s enclosure, the cat immediately started rubbing on the glass and softly meowing.
She Knew She Was the One
A staff member opened her enclosure, and Freya rubbed all over OP, purred so loud that she vibrated hard, and even licked her hand several times.
She was smitten and knew that Freya was the perfect cat for her.
Her Sister Fell in Love
Sophie also fell in love with Freya almost immediately.
She constantly said how much she wished Freya was hers and how good she would treat her.
She even told OP that she would make Freya a service animal.
She Said What?
She brushed these comments off, thinking that Sophie was just being playful.
However, one day, she said that she deserved to take Freya because she was getting a divorce and needed company.
Neither of them had kids, so Sophie thought that Freya would make a good companion for her.
A Rude Request
OP was completely caught off guard by this request and told Sophie that she would never give up her cat. Freya was like her child, and she could not imagine parting with her.
She thought that Sophie was just being entitled again and hoped that she would drop it. However, she was wrong.
Freya Was Nowhere to be Found
About five weeks after that conversation, OP came home from work one day and immediately noticed that Freya did not meet her at the door.
The cat always greeted her when she came home, and it was unusual for her not to be there. She started calling her, but she did not come. She tried shaking her can of treats, but that did not work either.
By this point, she was frantically searching every inch of her house, but there was no sign of Freya. The cat was nowhere to be found.
She Was Distraught
Her heart sank when she realized that she must have accidentally let Freya out when she left for work that morning.
Freya was a strictly indoor cat, and the thought of her being out on her own was terrifying.
Missing: One White Kitty
OP felt guilty and worried about Freya, so she put up missing pet ads in all the local pet groups, put up flyers everywhere, knocked on the door of everyone on her block, and asked if they could keep an eye out for her.
She even spread some of her litter in the front yard and put out a humane trap with tuna.
She was a mess without her beautiful, sweet cat and cried so much that her face was puffy, and she could barely eat or sleep.
Wait, What?!
One day, about a week after Freya went missing, OP was talking to a friend who also knew Sophie.
The friend casually asked if OP had seen Sophie’s beautiful new white cat. Her heart skipped a beat – she knew it was Freya.
An Understandable Reaction
She got home, immediately called her sister, and started yelling, “You stole my cat! How could you! How dare you! You had no right to take my cat. How could you do this to me?”
Sophie’s voice was dripping with attitude when she responded, “I told you I deserved to have Freya more than you. She is meant to be my cat. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of her.”
She Told Her
OP’s face went red with anger. She told her sister, “No! You will give me my cat right now, or I will absolutely call the police and press charges for theft and for breaking and entering.”
What a Joke!
Thirty minutes later, OP picked up Freya from her sister’s. There was a litter box and cat bed sticking out of her trash can.
Her Sister Destroyed Their Relationship
After that, OP went very low contact with her sister. She no longer visits; they don’t talk or text and only see each other on major holidays.
Freya is still a part of OP’s life, and she is so grateful for her. She still can’t believe her sister felt entitled toward her cat and that she had the nerve to steal her.
She finishes by saying, “Some people just blow my mind.”
What do you think of this tale? Should she press charges?
