Today, on my way to Burger King I got into a heated discussion with my wife about our cats. We have 15 rescues, and I've reached my limit. Guess what came running up to my car while waiting in the drive-through. We named him Pickles. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I walked outside to see my dog killing my cat. My spouse tried to cheer me up - "Hey, at least we don't have to buy cat food anymore!" FML
Today, my cat tried to steal my burger. She was successful. She grabbed the patty with her teeth and pulled it right out of the burger. I was too dumbfounded to try and stop her. I have a suspicion that she is hungry and I forgot to feed her. FML
Today, I once again walked in on my husband eating our cat's food. FML
Today, I had to take my cat to the vet. On the way there, he managed to get out of his cage, climb into the front seat, onto my chest, and howl in my face as I tried to drive down the highway. I ended up with stitches and still got charged for missing my cat's appointment. FML
Today, I was over at a friend's house feeding her cats while she was on vacation. After feeding the four of them, I found an extra cat under the sofa. Thinking it was an intruding stray, I kicked it out. She actually has 5 cats. FML
Today, I saw a poor helpless cat in the middle of the road while driving. I pulled over and scooped it in my arms to bring it to safety. Not only did I get mauled and scratched by the cat, my car also wasn't put in park and rolled away hitting a parked car. FML
Today, my girlfriend called me four times in a row at work. Worried, I stepped outside and answered the phone. Through tears, she screamed, "It's the cat!" Was he sick or hurt? "NO! He won't stop meowing!" FML
Today, I took my wife's cat to the vet for her yearly check up. I'm finishing the day at the hospital with multiple bite wounds and a deep gash in my leg. My wife chose to comfort her cat instead. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I are devastated to return our newly adopted "cat friendly" dog to the shelter. He's perfect, other than the fact that he clearly wants to eat our cats. FML
Today, I took my cat to the vet for a regular check-up. In the waiting room, she escaped from her carrier and created chaos, knocking over supplies, and hissing at everyone. FML

She's turning you into a crazy cat lady

Do you want fries with that? In all honesty, I like the idea of rescuing animals, but, you are right, there is a limit, especially if it is in your home. Hopefully you can reach a compromise! Until then, I hope you like Pickles :P

Will she compromise at all? Perhaps she can still rescue cats, but at the same time finding them a loving home? That way she is more of a "foster parent" vs permanent crazy cat lady. And let her keep 2-3 forever, the rest are given to good families.

she attracts them. you live in the house, too, and relationships are about compromises. If she isn't willing to compromise, maybe you should leave instead of the cats.

the only thing i could think of is how filthy that house must be, or will be once you're older and cant keep up with that many animals. yuck. Id put my foot down now if I was you before your house looks like those people on confessions: animal hoarding! she can take in cats and find them loving homes if she wants but keeping that many yourself is rarely a good idea - or sanitary.

another thought came to me, even though i dont let my cat outside of the house (she has a neurological problem) there are people who do and some family might be wondering why their pet never came home.

I'm trying to figure out how u got fed up at 15 and not at a more reasonable number like 4.

Can't you re-home some to family and friends, that way your wife can still see them?
