Reddit's AITA subreddit often presents us with complicated social situations where different considerations and ethical reasoning could make the decision go in either direction. This is not one of those times.
This woman saw fit to make off with his roommate's cat, citing the roommate's lack of attentiveness to the pet as her justification and reason. The internet has swiftly condemned her actions, calling her a thief and kidnapper and declaring her actions completely unjustified.
The woman writes that her roommate, Karl, "Wasn't the greatest of owners," mentioning that "While he did take care of the cat's food, water and litterbox, he ignored her existence almost entirely." She then goes on to explain how she bonded with the cat and began to resent its owner for keeping it inside all the time, taking that cat on outdoor adventures.
Once moving out, the woman returned with a key that she had inexplicably kept and staged the apartment to make it look like the cat had run away, taking it for her own. It was only when a friend pointed out that perhaps this wasn't the most ethical thing to do that the user turned to Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole subreddit to see if she was in the wrong.
Readers were shocked; they quickly and almost unanimously declared the woman to be the "a-hole."
