Is it normal that i hate my fiancés cat
I feel terrible about this, but I have never been fond of my boyfriends cat and I can’t tell if this is normal. My boyfriend decided to get a cat 6 months into our relationship. I asked him to reconsider because I hate cats but he was living on his own and really wanted a pet. We lived separate for the first 3 years of our relationship while I finished college so the cat didn’t bother me too much at first, but when we moved in together during the pandemic I had to deal with the cat more often. The cat is overweight and has health problems that effect her breathing. She has never warmed up to me and I’ve never grown to love the cat like I hoped I would. My family always grew up with dogs so I just have never been a cat person. We recently got engaged and bought a house together, and it has always been my dream to get a puppy when we can handle that responsibility. I love our dog more than anything, but I feel terrible now that I love one pet so much more than the other. Her health condition has gotten progressively worse over the years and I barely want to touch her. I can’t pick her up without giving her an asthma attack. With how often her attacks happen I’m just afraid for the day I find her no longer breathing. My fiancé and I have taken our cat to the vet countless times and she is on multiple medications, but her condition doesn’t have a cure. I really just look at her as an expensive, sick, nuisance that I can’t learn to love. Is this normal?
