I can't stop laughing the dryer flip did it. Don't feel bad, what's the new cats name?

NTA He left out antifreeze, that wasn't an accident. So, he's getting what's coming to him.

[deleted]

All the other subs call me the asshole and in the wrong.

Every other sub has called me the asshole and negligent.

Maybe lilo and I think he was thinking it was in the vent.

[deleted]

all the other subs are dumb, ignore them.

some would call it karma.

Ignore people downvoting.

It's like the Tell Tale cat!

Heck yeah! Great job driving that animal abusing asshole over the edge

The only reason other subs might be saying you’re an asshole, isn’t for what happened to the neighbor - no, he purposely killed your old cat. He deserves this. It’s because your husband, as well intentioned as it was, brought another animal into a situation where someone very close by wants to kill it. He put the cat (and potentially yourselves) in danger by doing so. The neighbor now having to move is the best case scenario for everyone, but he should have been handled first.

Your neighbor killed your cat. I'd say you just set the universe a little more right.,

You are totally the asshole. The people on here saying you are not are as selfish as you are. Was he wrong for leaving out antifreeze? He'll yes he was. Who doesn't know antifreeze kills? Sadly your cat died. But it was a cat. You most likely, illegally, tortured your neighbor resulting in the person having a mental break down, being involuntarily committed and now facing being homeless, or at best, out a lot of money and far less favorable living conditions due to the eviction. You should be wholly ashamed of your actions and if you had even a small amount of decency, you would confess what you did and at least try to help keep him from being evicted if not more. Selfish fucking people.

Wow, you changed this story a lot from the version you told earlier where you were clearly the person who killed your cat

Edit: here is a link to OPs original post before they changed the story to be sympathetic original story

No he didn't, did you ever stop and think where this anti-freeze is and why the cat was in his living area to begin with? It sounds like both parties are neglectful in the cats demise.

sorry didnt mean to throw out details that were important.

Nope, why the fuck is someone else's cat around areas that he lives? The OP sounds like they're twisting the story. Anti-freeze dude is negligent but so is OP

Yeah you can also not leave your pet outside.

I understand your pov and agree with it.

I do not know what the next step is and I did not plan for it to be taken this far.

Im sure you didn’t, as a favor to you save you the trouble of retyping it I linked to screenshots of your original story

Seriously and OP is disregarding her own culpability in these series of events. If you know you had to tell your neighbors 4 times to put away anti-freeze, then why do you continue to let your cat out unattended? Who knows if this guy had the stuff in his garage and didn't expect someone else's animal to be in there?

Thanks

I posted it in pro revenge - broke a rule no good.

Posted it in nuclear and getting a lot of hate

Posted it in AMIA - got taken down.

Tired of the automatic take downs and word sensitivity.

She absolutely is twisting the story here’s the last version she told https://imgur.com/a/wenU09a

You deserve all the hate you get, stop telling half truths to get sympathy and upvotes. It’s just more shitty behavior.

What all did I leave out that is so important?

Fuck no! Fuck that dick head. Have a drink and a relaxing evening, your good!

sometimes you can be the asshole but still in the right

It’s his own property. This is on OP for being a negligent pet owner.

Cause I can edit it and make sure to include everything.

Hmmm. I have mixed feelings about this one. I can see both sides of it and there's a horrible inevitability about it. Tragedy all round :(

>original story

I don't see anywhere that OP claimed to be the one to kill the cat. WTF are you talking about?

Robocop thinks your old post said that you killed your own cat. Not sure where he/she got that from. It says nothing in your original post.

I repeat - where did she claim she was the cat murderer?

Seems petty. If you have proof he intentionally left it out to kill the cat I would present that information to the appropriate authority.

How is your husband allergic to cats but yet bought you another one?

he said he would rather live with a semi runny nose in order for me to be happy.

Plus he bought a cat that is suppose to not aggravate allergies.

I didn’t say she claimed to kill her cat, I said she’s the one who killed her cat through negligence and neglect

You need to do something to help your neighbor if this is real because this is 100% your fuckup, all of it. You let your cat outside, despite knowing the neighbor leaves out antifreeze, and the inevitable happened. Cats are not outside pets (for a variety of reasons you can easily google.) Please learn from this mistake with the new cat.

Take note redditors, this is an actual example of gaslighting, it’s not just “when someone disagrees with you”.

OP let their cat out despite knowing full well that their neighbor had an auto repair business. They are 100% responsible for the cat entering the neighbors property and poisoning itself.

Neighbor had an auto repair business (in screenshots of ops original story). No indication that they intended to hurt the cat.

Neighbor had an auto repair business (see screenshots in thread above). No indication that they intended to hurt the cat.

It’s cruel to force some cats to stay inside.

If you confess you’ll be opening yourself up to legal and civil liability, but you’ll remove some of your bad karma.

Some.

another reason I am on reddit and not there.

Not TIFU. Someone mentally unstable enough to poison a cat and destroy property on a tirade needs help, and shouldn't be out in public until that treatment is either in progress or completed.

Yeah I'm confused why people are mad for the neighbor leaving out antifreeze and not the owner for letting the cat out. I think op is responsible for killing his own cat. This is why cats should be kept indoors.

I would 100% do this to his he sounds like a POS 🤷‍♀️

So everyone should avoid planting anything toxic to cats? Don’t feed birds lest it attracts cats etc

If you can fence it in with a catio or a cat proofed fence then I'm all for letting the cats outside. Free roaming cats are devastating to the local environment and ecosystem. Plus they are likely to get run over or munched by a loose dog or coyote. I have my cats leash and harness trained which was a butt load of work but I can take them anywhere and not worry about them getting into trouble. It's more cruel to not give a fuck about what your cat is messing up outside the boundary of your walls.

Aren't you just as if not more responsible for letting your cat out?

Yeah I see OP heavily revised this version of events, and worded it in a way that made it sound intentional. OP sucks and Milo’s death was absolutely avoidable from all sides involved. Yeah, he shouldn’t have left it out - not just because of her cat, but for any animals that would have gotten into it. It’s negligent. But so is letting your cat free roam, where it could find something like that 10 feet away at your neighbors - or 10 streets away. The cat could camp out behind an Autozone for all OP knows. And to purposefully fuck with someone’s mental health when 50% of the blame falls on yourself, also sucks.

revenge got a bit nuclear, but ffs he killed your cat. this is great psychological warfare, you won. Though prime suggestion. Keep this cat as an indoor cat. Sorry about Milo, losing a pet sucks, especially in such a pointless and tragic way.

yes this cat will 100% be indoors and will not go out at all.

Maybe confessing to your former neighbor? Then a mental health check up for yourself. I wish you and your old neighbor the best.

So you're cool with potentially ruining this guys life?

OP killed their pet, horrible person

Birds are cat food.

yes I have been told many many times today.

The people in that other thread are crazy, you didn’t really plan on this happening, and dude knew exactly what he was doing leaving that antifreeze out..

Reminds me of the time I bought these little speakers with wee magnets in them, they had a few sounds you could cycle through and one of them was a cat meowing. They'd play tye sound every 5 minutes or so and ilat the time I lived with 6 others in my flat. I kept shifting the speaker to different places every few days and would take it away for a couple days at a time. I had all my flatmates looking around wondering where this fucking cat was to the point one of them thought it was in the wall or something. I even walked around the house and was helping them search for the cat. I eventually caved and let them in on the joke and got some good reactions from them.

Are you aware of it though? You've been told countless times, do you accept it? Because guess what, it's the truth

[removed]

"Cats are not outside pets" excuse me but wtf..

[removed]

i read the original post, saw nothing that stated that, leaving out antifreeze in open containers like that is dangerous, any animal in the neighborhood could get poisoned from it and should not have been done, they had an emergency and had to leave for a few days, reckless? sure, i dont like outdoor cats, prefer them being indoor, but people should not be leaving antifreeze outside, keep business work at a fucking business, not in a duplex

I’m not saying he should leave it out but it’s some serious negligence to know that your neighbour leaves out poison and still let your cat go out

He ruined it himself. She didn’t make him destroy his duplex; he did that.

No, neighbor was negligent for leaving out antifreeze; he’s lucky it was a cat and not a child that got into it.

This is why cats are indoor pets…

We don’t know if the cat was in his living area and we don’t know where the antifreeze was.

People here are crazy.

No reputable auto repair business should be leaving out open antifreeze. Neighbor is an idiot.

>yes I have been told many many times today.

Well just shop your story around to another ten subs until you accept it then, yeah?

It's like textbook ESH.

Don't let your cat's roam free, they're effin' genocide machines and it cuts like ten years off their life.

Don't leave literal poisons sitting out after you're asked to by your neighbors with a cat they let out.

[removed]

How did he get into your house to feed your cat antifreeze?

how is this even possible I don't believe it

Thank you! I was sympathetic until I read the original.

OP, please go see a therapist for depression and ptsd. You have had a difficult life and are acting irrationally. Your neighbor didn’t kill your cat. This was an accident. To be brutally honest, you should have kept your cat inside if you knew you’d be away and there was a risk your neighbor would forget to dispose the antifreeze.

What you did was sick. Your neighbor likely felt bad enough as it was already. That cat was your responsibility. I’m sorry you lost your brother and your cat but you really messed your neighbor up and now he could become homeless. Tell your landlord. Figure something out. Your neighbor doesn’t deserve this.

Human garbage, you are. And that's coming from someone that makes their fair share of mistakes.

You want to redeem yourself, tell the man the truth.

Are you comfortable ruining this person's life?

That your neighbor likely forgot and it wasn’t malicious, that you had to leave for several days yet still let your cat have access to the outdoors, and all the other details.

I can tell you’re grieving from multiple things here and you’re wounded. You have trauma and are acting irrationally. You are ruining your neighbor’s life. Please, PLEASE make this right if you still have time before he’s homeless and get therapy for yourself if you haven’t yet. I speak from experience. Please get help and don’t let your neighbor take the fall for this.

It's cruel to let them outside. Humans feed cats, therefore cats do not actually need food to survive. However cats are little assholes, and they like to kill things

Domestic cats being supported by humans have wiped out billions of birds and mammals each year and are on track to continue to do so until they wipe out entire populations and eventually species.

In nature the cats would die off due to lack of food, but we feed them and keep their numbers artificially inflated.

Bull shit. Stop being an apologist

Yeah, they're not!

Wow! after reading some of your other versions of this story... lmao. There is no version you can tell that will make you sound better

She managed to make a man think he's fucking insane and made him go through a complete meltdown because he works on cars at hus own home and sometimes leaves oil and liquid out. It's not his fault op's cat died.

Op claimed to not hear anything when the man did and also gave possibke reasons as ro what the sound could be, like the husband opening some fucking door.

Op's a fucking lunatic

He wouldn't have done that if she didn't drive him to a mental breakdown??? Wtf lol what a fucking delusional take

That’s because you seem to have left out half your story here.

Cats are an invasive species, keep them inside or leash them outside. It’s safer for everyone that way and a lot less toxic all around.

For 3 days. The cat probably didn't have anything else to drink.

Nah. She didn’t make anyone go insane. He could have just ignored the cat sounds like a normal person.

You let your cat roam free while you were not around for an extended period of time, full well knowing that he leaves these chemicals out (and it is YOUR cat, not his responsibility). It sucks that your cat died and I feel for you on that but holy shit dude that's kind of excessive especially since it seems like you are in denial of the fact you had a large part in what happened. It was your responsibility to keep your cat safe and you failed. You can't change your environment but you are in control of your actions and you let your cat out despite knowing it wasn't safe. And then broke this guy mentally? Fucking psychotic behavior.

Bruh he purposely killed your cat. Antifreeze is an incredibly painful and preventable death. I feel no sympathy for this man. There’s absolutely no excuse to use ethylene glycol based antifreeze.

Absolute agreement. You're a fucking monster. Weird ass fucking asshole. GO AND MAKE THIS RIGHT! You owe that man a debt and need to do something to redeem this awful shit you pulled.

How things change when redditors call you an asshole and down vote you into oblition, right OP?

OP tone changed so much since they kick her out of r/nuclearrevenge a few hrs ago... there she was bragging about getting his neighboor evicted and having driving him insane until almost everyone told her what a negligent pet owner and a bully she is....

I wish I had saved the post.

I hope you rot in hell OP

NTA. Anyone who deliberately leaves out antifreeze deserves everything they get. Fuck him. Feed him antifreeze.

People hate outdoor cats. Especially Reddit. But those people don’t understand that you can’t take an outdoor cat and suddenly make it an indoor cat. Especially older cats that lived their entire lives outdoors.

And I’m sure no one is mentioning that there’s no reason he should have been using ethylene glycol antifreeze.

[removed]

[deleted]

Are you kidding me? Not about the destruction and murdering part. Domestic cats won't die out. They are one of the most successful per hunt mammals there is. They won't die out if people stop feeding them. They'll kill even more so they can also eat.

I have two cats and cant imagine blaming my neighbor for my own neglect. He was within his right to keep whatever on his property.

Grief can make people do some weird shit.

Yes because it's easy to ignore cat noises for however long (days? Weeks? Longer?) when it sounds like it's coming from inside the wall that your neighbour doesn't seem to hear

[removed]

I have cats, and I keep them inside. I love them, they’re great, but they aren’t for everyone. On top for that, they’re little serial killers that will kill just for fun and not bother eating what they killed. I’m sorry because I know losing Milo was super painful, but you should have kept him inside. Unless your neighbor broke into your home and poisoned him, that is actually on you. And seeking out “revenge” for a crime he didn’t do is something extra.

I took screenshots of the original, here you are https://imgur.com/a/wenU09a

Lmao that must feel awesome

Reveddit Link

You’re a big piece of trash OP. For those who are sympathetic, I suggest you find the comment that posted her old post where she gives the whole story. She left her cat out knowing damn well her neighbor is busy with an auto repair business. You’re a pathetic excuse of a person and a piece of shit

Honestly, both people are wrong. Guy was asked not to leave poison out. OP acted out in grief.

You know your neighbor left automotive liquids outside and yet you left your cat outside unattended for 3 days. Those are pretty important details.

Do yourself a favor and stop trying to post this all over the internet. You were neglectful towards your pet and it ended up dying, then you took it out on your neighbor and drive him to madness (literally). Everyone on Reddit now knows you’re evil now, so stop trying to get attention and sympathy and go do something productive with your time.

I really hope they stumble upon your post and somehow are able to sue you. You bastard

Fuck him! He killed your cat. Antifreeze poisoning is very painful. Your poor cat :(

[removed]

They left the cat alone for 3 days while helping her husbands mum. Who looked after the cat during that time? Why wasn't the cat inside?

OP, you are the total asshole. He can leave his stuff where he likes in his property; you let your cat out and it died.

And you tried to make him the responsible when it was you, in reality.

I were him, I'd have stored the anti-freeze, but I would not feel OBLIGATED for it.

That said, if this tale is true, I have to acknowledge a grudging respect for how you ruined his sanity. If he'd been evil and killed the animal, I'd even consider it justified.

But as it is, you are in the wrong and ruining someone's life over your own fault.

Wonder if somebody ever points him to this thread, if I ever found out something like that had happened to me, that person's home or car might suffer an unfortunate accident.

[deleted]

People like you are the reason I hate people.

Ok wow I just read the original post. Sheesh crazy how the same story hits differently with details omitted and included

OP went through some stages with this post. It went from r/NuclearRevenge to r/TrueOffMyChest to r/AmItheAsshole to r/tifu

It went from look I did a cool thing, to damn I did something bad, to did I do something bad? to shit I fucked up..

I mean, that's some sweet sweet revenge. Your neighbor basically killed your original cat. I'm having hard time saying you're the bad person here really.

[deleted]

I didn't know the whole story when I originally made this post. Your cat depended on you to keep him safe. You failed him. You should not have let him go outside if you knew he might come in contact with antifreeze. That's on you. As far as your neighbor goes, I still say fuck him.

Leaving antifreeze out is also negligent.

Purposefully psychologically torturing someone so much they have a breakdown is worse though.

Why are you changing your story?

Be honest with yourself AND your neighbour!!!

come clean - ASAP! And get therapy!!!!!

You killed your cat because you knew it was going to drink antifreeze that was left out and decided to leave it unsupervised in that situation. Please go rehome your new cat before your negligence ends up killing that one too.

Your still a fucking asshole

Will you be telling your neighbor the truth about this situation?

Wow. This is a legit TIFU.

Scrooge needs a time out in solitary confinement if he's poisoning neighborhood cats. Milo's revenge is justified and righteous. The Tell Tale Heart but with cat meows

Your brain is rotten cat food.

I had an old cat named Milo that recently died because the neighbor (live in a duplex) left out antifreeze. We asked him not to around 4 times but he always shook it off.

​

Guilt. This is called guilt.

Not only kills but is an extremely painful and torturous death since crystals form inside of internal organs much like Gout but affecting vital organs

>and when I left, there was nothing in the pan

In your other post you said you and your husband was gone for 3 days. Was there anyone taking care of Milo while you were gone?

Right?! Instagram and tik tok too.

You left your cat unattended for days, outside, where you knew there was dangerous materials. Yes, your neighbour should have cleaned up after himself, but your responsibility is to your animal and you failed him. You need to take responsibility for your negligence, and DO NOT LET YOUR NEW CAT OUTSIDE

I know y'all love cats but fyi, in most places outdoor animals including cats are illegal. They are also terrible for the ecosystem.

A good owner can have a happy indoor cat.

Letting your cat outside onto others property is illegal. Op could actually be fined or worse charged.

You deserved it. I hope your neighbor finds this post and sues you for psychological damage and destroying his life because YOU were an irresponsible owner and got your cat killed. I’m sorry for your new one

It was in HIS yard and op left his cat outside unsupervised for three whole days without having anyone to check on the cat- this is a new post with lots of missing info- and he knew about the antifreeze situation already. No one is responsible for your pet but you, same with a child, if a child had gotten into it it would be the parent that was negligent since a child shouldn’t be in someone else’s yard.

They aren’t, anywhere but England and I think maybe Egypt they are highly invasive and shouldn’t be given free roam outside

You have GOT to be ops alt account, no one can be that dense

Dude every cat I’ve ever owned was a feral outdoor cat that I brought home and is now a happy indoor cat.

You need therapy too

No he didn’t, not morally and ESPECIALLY not legally. Op is fully responsible for ruining this man’s life because op couldn’t be a responsible pet owner in the slightest

[removed]

Do you EVER consider anyone but yourself? You even said in your original post you PLANNED to eventually get another cat when the first one died even knowing he was allergic.

They left the cat without food or water for 3 days while they travelled interstate. If the cat wasn't gonna die from drinking coolant (they already knew about and also the only hydration it had access to??), it wouldn't be a big reach to expect it'd die from some other neglect-based cause of death. OP revealed herself 💀

[removed]

He didn’t poison the cat. Op left the cat outside alone for three days while going off somewhere knowing full well the neighbor works with antifreeze as he’s basically an at home mechanic

Says the guy spamming replies at me. Lol.

Get a life.

How is what happened not legal? Man ruined his own life by getting bothered by cat noises.

He didn’t deliberately leave it out. Op edited the post

You mean like you’re spamming this entire thread because you don’t like that other people rightfully called op out for being negligent

No he didn’t, op decided to intentionally gaslight and drive a man insane because they couldn’t bother to be a responsible owner. That is not legal and I hope the neighbor sues op for all he can. Op and those defending them are sick. Get help.

Yet my replies are to different people saying different things. Do you know the definition of spamming?

What you are doing in this thread. Bye bye now.

Lol. It is very legal. Ethical, maybe not. Legal, yes.

Show me the law it breaks.

Lol. Get a life. You have no idea what you are talking about because you are too invested in this for some reason.

Harassment laws for one

Says the person vehemently defending an owners willful negligent of their pet

Nope - try again. Playing cat sounds (or music for that matter) in your own home that others happen to overhear is not harassment.

I've only ever seen gas lighting to mean trying to convince someone else of a false reality

Purposely being dense and obtuse is not a good look.

Oh, this should be a good thread: why do you think the owner neglected their cat?

Try not to use the reddit cliches of "but cats belong indoors" etc. I'm curious if your brain can come up with anything else.

Lol. So you have nothing.

Got it.
