A few days ago my father brought home a 6 week old kitten. My younger sibling had been asking for one for a long time so he just got it. Ok. Nice, a kitten, what could go wrong.
First off, my younger sibling is not responsible at all, he clearly can not take care of it and only wants it just to play with. When he’s not playing with it he either locks it in one of the rooms or its cage.
So I decided to take responsibility which wasn’t a problem at first, I play with it, I clean its litterbox, I give it food, I let it sleep on my lap (since its the only place it really goes to sleep).
Sorry for making this long. The ISSUE: 1. I never wanted a pet in the first place, but I’m forcing myself to love it because I feel bad that it was separated from its 2 brothers. 2. My mom doesn’t want it 3. No one else can take care of it 4. It needs affection and bonding 24/7 and me being the only person who could do that, I really cant be committed to raising a kitten.
TL;DR: My father got a 6-week old kitten for my younger sibling who only wants it just to play with. I never wanted a pet but, I force myself to take care of it since no one else will, my mom does not want it nor do I. So now I feel guilty for being attached to it since were most likely going to return it soon due to the fact my younger sibling can not take care of it and nobody else asked for it.
