Giving my baby to my family
 

Because my families older cat has cancer and won't be around much longer and my family keeps telling me that they aren't giving my cat back to me, I decided to let them have her for good. It kinda makes me sad, because she is my little social butterfly sweetheart and I will miss her, but I think my family needs her more than me. I was shocked when even my dad said that he didn't want to give her back to me, because he was very opposed to getting another animal, but I think she will be the one to help the family heal from the loss of the other kitty. Surprisingly both of the kitties get along and Annabelle has a baby for the last little bit of her life. She was never able to be a mommy and I think she likes having a baby now (my kitty is only about 5 months old). I will miss her, but it's what needed to happen.

That's a very kind thing for you to do. You are right, she will help them to heal when the time comes for the older kitty. But on the positive side you will get to visit with her!
