This 29-year-old pawrent is prepping for a five-day trip and doing the responsible thing: finding someone to feed the floof, scoop the royal litter box, and keep the castle running. Enter friend’s 15-year-old sister, who offered to catsit and seemed excited about it… until payment came up. The pawrent offered 50 euros total. About 10 euros a day for a few minutes of work plus unlimited snacks and a quiet house to hang out in. Pretty purrfect deal for a teen, right?
Apparently not. The sister thinks it’s not enough and has been texting that it’s unfair. Her mom sides with her, while the friend and dad say the rate is fine. The pawrent even said “no hard feelings” and offered to find someone else, but the sister didn’t like tahat either because she already said yes.
Here’s the real catastrophe: this was supposed to be a win-win arrangement, not a negotiation over kibble. The pawrent is trying to be fair on a student budget, not underpay a professional. If the sister doesn’t want the job, there are other willing hoomans ready to serve the royal fluff.
