Girl Asks If It's OK To Decide Not To Let 11-Year-Old Kid Pet Her Cat
Everyone, how can you tell love? By behaviors. As cat owners, we love cats and love to show our affection to them through cuddles, hugs, and petting. Sometimes, we do want to pet other people's cats because they look so adorable that we can't resist it.
When you ask someone for their permission before petting their pet, usually, they'll let you do. But some owners don't want their cats to be petted by strange hands, just like Redditor @Jforn2345.
She has been owning a 5-month-old kitten in her dorm. It is a sweet and super friendly cat, and she often takes it out on walks.
Here is how the problem started. While she was walking her cat on campus, she came across a mom and a son who wanted to give her cat some petting. Instead of asking for @Jforn2345's permission, the mom picked up the cat and gave it straight to her son. She even said something she shouldn't have said, which offended the Redditor as she was the kitty's owner.
So, when she met them the next time, she refused to let the 11-year-old son to pet her cat again. Read the full post here.
