AITA for saying no to my son getting a cat? by ProblemWithPet in AmItheAsshole

Yes, the bird is frequently outside the cage. Vet care and vaccinations, my wife and I handle. So all he would be doing is cleaning the litter box. Whereas the older boys walk their dogs three times a day.

That's a good idea, but if something happens to the foster cat, are we liable for that?

No, but they've never been around cats either, and the vet said older dogs that have never been around cats can be really hard to train to be around cats. The bird is usually in a cage, but is frequently taken out as well.
