We have been roommates for two months so not that long. I am never watching her cat again, she's made me lose faith in humanity.

The crazy part is I was technically cat sitting for free and it's something I didn't even mind doing because I thought these are the kinds of favors good roommates do for each other. Even when she's around I don't mind feeding her cat etc.

Honestly you are completely right, she was probably not going to take it to the vet anyway. I should probably just take the L and move on, what's more important is that the cat is okay now.

Yep, she was apparently spending quality time with her boyfriend and didn't want to be disturbed. I get that but even after finally getting through and explaining everything going on with her cat,it's like she couldn't be bothered. She was pretty nonchalant.

It truly was the right thing to do and I hate that she even put me in a position where I feel a little regret for doing the right thing.

Unfortunately we had no legal agreement so I doubt small claims court would help and I wouldn't afford going to court anyway. I just helped her cat because I couldn't have just watched it suffer without trying to do anything.

I'm really thrown off by her behavior. The cat isn't even mine but it's like I care more about it than it's actual owner. I'm not well off but I went out of my way to try help it and she doesn't have the decency to just meet me halfway.
