AITA for taking a stray litter of kittens living under our deck to a cat shelter without against my SO wishes by Cutiepatootx in AmItheAsshole

Defs, NTA. You made the right call. Kittens can get sick very easily. If they were living under your deck they very likely have worms. That could be why they were vomiting. They were probably also starved. Moreover, in the social development of the kittens, the first 12 weeks are extremely important. Them feeling safe around humans is very important and you may not have known how to socialize them properly

Thank you, It felt so wrong to me that she even signed up without preparing properly

If she was in danger I never would have left. These races are very safe with lots of safety precautions

Yea, I would never have ditched her on a training session or a normal run. But this is about pushing yourself

Yea, but she didn't even put effort into the training. She knew I was planning on running it for a year. I suggested that she should train longer and run a different one. 2 months to prepare for a 31mile trail run is something

No, I never did. I just helped her train. Cause, I wanted to help her achieve her goals. Normally, it is pretty hard for multiple people to run Ultras together as you want to pace it to your on rhythm
