I am crying right now...

OMG! How could they do that? I never even knew you had cats. I thought you only had Abby. I'm so sorry. Do your parents have a reason? Did they discuss this earlier or just took them away with no notice? I think its very harsh to just take them away without discussing or even mentioning it earlier, because that's such a shock. How long did you have the cats? Didn't your parents love them?

Ps. I don't think you should say that about your mom though. That's a very harsh word. I wouldn't even use it for my enemy. She's your mother, no matter what. Its wrong to say such things about her, even though she did a VERY cruel thing.
