To be blunt, you can't count on these people to be personally responsible at all. They show that over and over. But the most important thing is that your cats are in your care and are your personal responsibility. Hopefully you love them unconditionally. THEY NEED TO BE KEPT SAFE. No matter what. The kid sounds like he is getting more and more likely to hurt them. So he MUST be kept away from them. That's more important than anything else. They are much smaller than him and they are much more fragile than human beings. They need you to keep them safe.I know. Shes just lazy. I try to take him for occasional walks, but she puts off taking him outside. She wants to sit on her butt, and let him play with his toys. She will occasionally take him outside, but its not an every day thing. Ive given her the advice to take him out more, and so has her mom. But she doesnt really like listening to people.
I know its a risk to lend her my car. But my mom would have wanted me to help her, thats the only reason i try my best to help her. Even with her nasty attitude, my mom loved her very much. She has a special connection with her due to the health issues my niece had as a child. The way i got my license was because my sister in law took the risk of letting me use her car. Her insurance could have been ruined if i wasnt careful. I am very grateful to her for that.
Theres only three people i trust with my car, and no one else. Thankfully she doesnt use it much and goes close by. I have been saying no to her lately to save on my gas. Have to save money unfortunately.
I dont want to get to the point that i start becoming like her just to spite her. I know shes not helping me the way i am helping her. But i dont want to go down to her level of pettiness. I am hopeful my sister will help me. Shes the only one that can get my niece to listen. I dont want to stress because my pressure isnt going down much. If it comes to it, i will just lock up my cats and sleep in the living room.
And thank you for your kindness. Just the fact that the thought crossed your mind to want to help me shows that you have a big heart. That means a lot to me.
