So on the 4th of July I decided to get my little brother a kitten since he's been wanting one for a little while now. I was the one who convinced my family to let my brother have the kitten. (I already have a 2 year old cat of my own btw) The first few days were fine with the new cat I really liked her but now I just want to return her back to the shelter or give her to a new family. For starters, my resident cat HATES the kitten and my poor cat has to be locked in my room all day because the kitten is always in the living room/dining room and they fight. Second of all, the kitten came with a bad respiratory infection and she's now passed it on to my resident cat. And then also whatever bad thing the kitten does, my mother gets mad at me and blames me that this is all my fault because I'm the one who convinced them to get a new cat. I fully take the blame for that because I didn't exactly think things through at the moment of getting it I thought things were going to go well. Anyways so for over a week now I've been wanting to give the kitten back or find her a better family but I can't because my mom, step dad and brother are really attached to the kitten & love her. I told my mom if I could find the kitten a new home and she said "Absolutley not, there's no way you're giving her away now".
I'm mainly upset because the kitten got my resident cat sick. Who knows what other diseases the kitten might have and give it to my poor cat. What if she has leaukemia? I just don't know what to do. I don't want my cat to get sick and die, it'll be my fault
All in all, I personally think the kitten would be better in another home it's for the best of her but I can't give her away.
