This is Brenna. She HATES the boy cats with a passion. She really should
be an only cat. Unfortunately she is with me. Crazy animal lover I am.
She currently spends nights and part of her day in her own room. She would
probably be happier at a home without other cats.
A coworker today asked if I was still thinking of rehoming her. I am, but I
feel so sad about this decision so I am on the fence. I found her over ten
years ago when she was four weeks old. She loved my other cat (who I still
have) but when we moved to Maryland and I acquired the boys, she has become
increasingly miserable. I know, in my heart, that the kindest thing is to
let her go, but I still feel this tremendous amount of guilt over the whole
situation. I believe strongly that pets are for life, and so am willing to
work around her issues by giving her this room to herself, but I also feel
she might be happier as the only cat.

so sad. i hope you are able to do what is best for everyone.
My heart is breaking for Brenna. What a terrible position to be in...for you too!!! Just give her all the love that you can! (that's what we do to our one cat that would prefer to be the only).
We had to let one of ours go for this same reason, we have gotten updates. She is SO much happier with her new family, one with no kids and no other animals. We made the right decision for Figs and I am so relieved that I didn't change my mind. She is happier, healthier and having so much more fun.
We made the best decision for Figs and I don't regret it at all. I love a happy kitty, and she is oh so happy now!
I've had the same cat for 14 years. She also hates every cat that has every been brought into our home and I'd have to say that's at least 7. However, I also know while she's antisocial and has to growl at every other animal that walks by her, she very much loves her home. Just keep in mind if you want to keep her, she's a cat and she loves her home, loves you and is probably content going through life being pissed at the world
I am rehoming her with a coworker, so I am going to be able to see her, and get updates. If she is miserable in her new home after a few weeks, she will come back to us.
She leaves on Friday. I am so sad, but I think her life will be better. And my stress will decrease, which isn't as important as her happiness. Plus, if we have a baby we will actually have room for it without Brenna taking up a whole room for herself.
