Girl Neuters An Outdoor Cat She Thought Was A Stray, Then Its Owners Blames Her For Taking Her Cat To Shelter

As you live in a house with a large yard and some fancy pets, I bet that you've more than once seen a strange cat in your house. These unexpected guests are so cute that we can't refuse to let them in for some greetings and cuddles. But, what if they keep coming to your house many times?
A user has shared with Reddit a story of her helping an outdoor cat she thinks is a stray and getting into big trouble for her kindness. The cat, as she describes it, is nice, friendly, and intact. It keeps wandering around her apartment area (with a parking lot), and one of her big concerns is that it will find a shade that is not a car.

With some food and water, she manages to catch it and take it to shelter. The cat is not microchipped. OP has it vaccinated and surrendered to the shelter. It only takes three days for the cat to find a new family.

But, here is how the problem begins. By a way, OP comes across a Facebook post from her neighbor about her missing cat that looks exactly like the cat she has taken to the shelter. OP feels terrible and texts her neighbor to tell her what has happened with her cat.

The next day, the owner turns to OP after working with the shelter to get the cat back but fails. It is required that she has to pay $50 as the adoption fee to get her cat back. The owner is now asking for OP's responsibility to pay for the fee.
Therefore, OP asks Reddit if she is on the wrong side. Her story attracts 2.4K upvotes and more than half of a thousand comments. People who are involved in the discussion say that OP is not an a**hole. Please see their response here.
