To ask if you would allow...

Is the cat hers? If so, yes. But if it's the family cat, no. I'd not allow my children to take my dogs. They'd have to kill me first!

I was thinking similarly to Zoejory. If the cat was acquired as "hers", then I can understand her wanting to take it with her, especially if she and the cat have always had a special relationship. Otherwise, the move and settling in to a new home is a bit much for an older cat when it's not essential.

If it's the family cat then say no and get her one of her own as a house warming present.

No, who ever it belongs to. 14 is too old for such a big change!

Why don't they get a kitten of their own? Your poor old one would be too stressed to move. What a shame.

I thought your neighbour killed your cat, www.google.com/url?client=internal-element-cse&cx=010995057459380558086:wn3vvylhmc4&q=https://www.gransnet.com/forums/aibu/1318184-To-be-livid-with-neighbour&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwiP0tHM6NH7AhUCVvEDHX6FA_4QFnoECAIQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0MydNEWEIp3R0WfkWIkwHh

No, the cat has not asked to move, presumably it is happy where it is.

A different cat, Sago?

Perhaps Topsys DD thinks the neighbour may kill this cat too and wants to keep her away from harm.

have you asked the cat?

I expect the cat said “Food? Warmth? Whatever…..”

I wouldn't rehome a 14 year old cat for no good reason. Your daughter could rescue a cat which needs a home if she really wants one.

I thought your daughter was still at school.

Depends who the owner of the cat is

some interesting posts these days

There certainly are

I thought your daughter was still at school.

In previous posts there have been children at swimming lessons and then a 9 year old granddaughter.
I think the fictional cat would be happier with the fictional daughter and her boyfriend.

Tell her the cat is happier in the place it knows and feels safe in. It's high time the young woman thought about what the cat needs instead of what she herself wants.

Maybe your daughter thinks it will be safer with her as your post last week was about (presumably) another cat you had that you suspected your neighbour of making it ill and then then the cat died. So to keep it away from your neighbour let your daughter have it.

I wouldn't want a cat of that age to have an upheaval like that. I had a little dog when I was living at home with my parents and when I was getting married and moving to England I sadly decided to leave her with them. She spent her days with them when I was out working and then was with me in the evenings so I didn't think it was fair on her to take her away from them and her home. It broke my heart leaving her, but it was the best thing for her in my eyes.

I was told that whilst dogs get attached to people, cats get attached to places. I would never move a 14 year old cat unnecessarily

Cats don’t belong to anyone. 😄

Presumably the OP will be returning to the thread to view the replies, and will then doubtless clarify by answering the points that have been raised.

Careful…….. it was curiosity that killed the cat.

Is this a genuine question? If so I am horrified that anyone would consider the proposition of rehoming a very elderly cat- regardless of who it 'belongs ' to!!!!
