I’ve posted about this friend before - we’ve known each other for years -I have struggled at times. Everyone says she can be hard work. I usually visit her once a week - and no she won’t visit me. Anyway she acquired a cat a few months ago, and she is obsessed with it-and I mean obsessed . She’s decided it has a deformed mouth despite two vets telling her it has a normal mouth and is quite obese. She thinks it can’t eat it’s food due to the desired mouth , unless she piles it in “special lumps “ like a crane while he’s eating it. I’m sorry but if it can eat a mouse -it can eat a tin of cat food ffs.Wen I go round there- well if the cat gets up she follows it . If it goes out , she goes out to see where it is , she jumps up as soon as it comes in. While she’s feeding it in the kitchen , she’s gone for ages , pulling the bloody food up in a special way , two or three times while I’m there . I’m not allowed in the kitchen with her , in case I put the cat off of eating. She won’t come to mine , cos she won’t leave the cat. Don’t get me wrong I’m a massive animal lover. But aibu to think there is no point on me visiting her when she’s fussing over the cat in the other room for most of the time. I think it’s rude actually. She even gets up three times in the night to do the food thing. Oh and I’m not allowed to laugh loudly in case I scare the said cat 😩. She says if she doesn’t do it -the cat sulks and creates a bad atmosphere 🤔😩. Aibu to not want to waste my evenings anymore sitting in her sitting room on my own tolerating this crap ? Just read through this -and no it’s not a wind up
AIBU?
To feel my friend has gone bat shit crazy and not want to visit anymore

If you can go round once a week and watch this and keep a straight face you're a better woman than me.

I am concerned about her -but I don’t really see what I can do. I honestly wouldn’t abandon her tho

I hear what you’re saying but it would not go down well if I suggested it
