I would be mad too! My Squeak doesn't like other animals either. Matter of fact, she doesn't like most people. I would NEVER, and I repeat NEVER bring in something to upset my baby. She is my life, and as long as she's around she'll be an only cat! I totally understand where you're coming from. Could you maybe help to find this cat a home, as I would be scared where they might allow her to go. It seems pretty obvious they do not understand what it is to love a pet like a member of the family! I like Squeak better than some of my family! LOL! If you don't mind me asking, how old is your "friend"?
