We’ll admit the science isn’t entirely settled. The world just doesn’t know for sure that house cats brought up by gay people have the same chances to thrive as cats brought up by straight people.
And until such a study irrefutably proves that felines receive the same number of back rubs, access to scratching posts and catnip (but not too much catnip) no matter the sexual orientation of said feline’s human companions, one God-fearing woman will do whatever must be done to ensure no kitty will purr in the lap of a gay man.
Won’t someone think of the kittens?!
Alex Andreou, a gay Londoner, has posted a truly absurd string of texts between himself and a woman trying to find someone to adopt her cat.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“I just travelled two hours to adopt a cat that desperately needed rehoming and was turned down for being gay,” he wrote before asking: “WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE.”

And while there is some inherent comedy in this situation, it certainly wasn’t funny in the moment for Alex.
He continued on Twitter:
So now I’m on the bus and I’m sobbing and people are staring at me because the truth is it hurts as much as when I was 8 years old.

One Twitter commenter summed the whole thing up nicely:
IT'S NOT A LIFESTYLE CHOICE. WORSHIPPING AN IMAGINARY MAN IN THE SKY IS A LIFESTYLE CHOICE. ?????FFS.
Hope you're ok mate. Much love. ?— Alistair Barrie (@AlistairBarrie) August 22, 2017

Religious freedom/discrimination is really terrifying and it’s spreading like a contagious disease. Get out and vote when the elections come around!! PLEASE!

People like her should be publically shamed for being a nasty disgusting bigot; hiding behind “god”, “religion”, “jesus” and the “bible” is no longer cute or acceptable.
If this heffa cares about people going to hell, she should look in the mirror and start with her self; people need to relearn compassion, decency and proper behavioural ethics on how to treat a fellow human being.
Besides he should of told her “Your god is weak suace if he needs the likes of you to enforce whatever laws it is you believe in; send my regards to the cat whom I feel really sorry for”

I would have replied that it’s better in hell than in heaven with her.
