Having neighbors is dramatic enough sometimes. Really, people seem to find the smallest things to get upset over sometimes. And having a curious indoor-outdoor cat that can hang around the neighborhood and visit the neighbors when he feels like it… seems to add a whole heck of a lot to the drama. Seriously, we have seen some crazy stories when it comes to neighbors and cats. We have seen everything from neighbors abandoning their cats and the cats choosing the neighbor as their new human, to cats breaking into their neighbor's home in an attempt to get adopted by them, all the way to neighbors holding lost cats for ransom and demanding money before they return them.
Crazy stuff, and still… this story is up there with some of the most insane ones that we have covered. Listen, we can see this happening to anyone - accidentally "adopting" the neighbor's cat without knowing that it's the neighbor's. But to stand there and, instead of returning the cat and apologizing, demanding that the cat be shared between the two of them… the audacity.
