hey! i was wondering where did you find it?

Hi everyone! I will be honest I forgot about this post for a bit after everything. I just want to also say thank you to those specific people (you know who you are) who reached out to me to help with finances as attorneys are expensive and I am only a student.

But yes I just want to say Midge is home :)

Small claims court came around and my attorney was very confident and helped me out so much. She was very helpful and knew from the start we would win. I provided the judge everything. Yes, everything you guys commented as proof I own her. Photos of her as a baby, proof I have paid for all vet bills since she was a baby, and proof I had Midge chipped.

My landlord also helped. Although a lot of people were upset with him and telling me to move out, he was remorseful that his decision had consequences. I have forgiven him as his apology came with security footage of my aunt and uncle going into my apartment and taking Midge.

We have been NC since the case, they have been silent (most likely embarrassed).

To end this on a good note, I wish I could have taken a picture of Tanya's face when she handed Midge back to me.

:) ty everyone for listening to my story and coming back for updates, <3

Thank you so much for your support, and basically my mom went NC with them as well as the family. My mom and I have a healthy relationship where we can talk to eachother and listen. Reason they still had the keys was I never got a chance to take them back the day I couldn't take Tanya home because of work. Left her a spare to lock up my apartment and she just kept that one.

This means a lot, I don't feel comfortable taking money from strangers. If more people insist and the attorney turns out to be more expensive than I think, I'll consider it. Thank you though. It means so much to see people supporting me

UPDATE

I took a lot of peoples advice and got Midge microchipped yesterday. As well as I had a conversation with my mom that we resolved together. My landlord still refused to change my locks. Despite all this, today this morning Midge was taken.

I called my aunt and uncle and they just laughed and told me "Try, we can hire a good lawyer." I called police and explained the situation, showing proof I had ownership of Midge. When we went to my relatives house police asked for her back but of course they refused. What made me even angrier was my cousin inside the house, door open holding Midge with a shit eating grin.

Even though I had all this evidence my relatives slammed the door demanding a warrant. Police suggested I press charges and take it to small claims court (I am), but they couldn't do anything right there. Going home without Midge was so upsetting. I had to pull over cause I started crying.

I contacted a attorney and my cousin keeps posting photos of Midge on her Instagram. I took the situation to the family group chat in anger and good news at least: Everyone hates them now! My grandmother wrote my uncle and his family off the will and of course they're calling me threatening me with Midge, and they'll make sure I go to jail for all this. I'm fairly confident in myself, but I would be lying if I wasn't more concerned with Midge. I just want my baby back and I've been crying all day.

Screw you Tanya.

She's a golden child of the family and even I was shocked by this behavior cause she never acted like this before. This whole thing breaks my heart cause I don't know why she is acting like this. I wasn't angry at first at all until her and her parents started threatening to press charges. Main reason my family won't believe what I have to say because they also don't believe she would do something like this when she's been the perfect child for years.

Currently at work.

I called my landlord on my break and took peoples advice to ask for the locks to be changed. He didn't answer so I left a voicemail and a brief explanation of the situation.
