Donovan bought his girlfriend, Britney, a cat for her birthday because she’s such a huge Taylor Swift fan and thought it would be a personal and fun gift. She does not agree and has no interest in having any pets. She’s in medical school, constantly working, and adding a pet to her routine is not something that she ever wanted. He thinks it’s too late now; he got the cat, she wants him to return it to the organization where he got it. They don’t live together yet, but he also can’t bring a cat back to his rental because of their no pet policy. What would you do? He wants her to keep it so when they do move in, it can be their shared cat.
