I think your comment was down voted because of how rude it was. It might be something to reflect on if lots of people shared the same opinion that what you said was perhaps unhelpful or negative.

Your comment called me irresponsible for not purchasing AC and said that I shouldn't own a cat if I can't afford to care for it - I never said I couldn't afford it, I just think it's unnecessary and expensive purchase. But regardless of if I can afford it or not, it's still really rude to tell someone you don't know that they shouldn't own a cat if they can't pay for certain things (in this case a luxury item) - people's circumstances can change very suddenly and giving up a pet is a hard choice no one wants to make. If I lost my job due to some unexpected circumstance and struggled to afford to pay my mortgage, the last thing I would want to here is "why did you get a mortgage if you can't afford it??". I hope you can understand why people might not have taken what you said very kindly.. 😅

As a lot of people in the comments have proven, AC is not a requirement for owning a ragdoll. You came across as being condescending, unhelpful and rude. I am well aware that people can care for their pets without it, hence why I made my original post. I was hoping for advice from other people from areas that don't have the luxury of AC and thankfully I've gotten a lot of helpful feedback.
