Redditor Thinking Of Cutting Ties With Mother-In-Law After She Suggesting Putting Down Their Recently Sick Cat

Jonathan Hayda

Hey guys! Back again with another wild chapter in the Mother In Law Drama. Well, buckle up because Canadian Thanksgiving rolled around, and OP had the pleasure of a family dinner.

Now, things had been relatively quiet since OP put her on a low-contact approach, but oh boy, did she have something to say this time. We decided to share the thrilling tale of Franklin, OP's youngest cat, who had a close call with a urethral obstruction. Crisis averted, meds administered, and Franklin is back to his lazy self.

Cue MIL's stellar input: "You know those things are for life, right? Expensive too. Just put him down; it's not worth it." OP calmly explained that Franklin is thriving, and OP committed to his well-being. But oh no, she insists euthanasia is the way to go.

OP's partner shut her down, but she persisted with snarky remarks throughout the night. So what's the verdict from the internet for this case? Is it worth it to spend thousands of dollars to save a cat that kept you sane during Covid? Or we should be a realist like OP's MIL?
