Post on her home page (and make sure she is tagged so her entire network can see the post) - that she has abandoned her cat and is unreachable/has disappeared...maybe someone in her network can take the cat, or reach her. Who gives a F is she is publicly shamed, her behavior is atrocious.

This.

You think this is a better option than a shelter? WTF is wrong with you, lady? Get the cat and take it to a shelter. And while we're at it, if you were not supposed to have a cat, you shouldn't have offered to pet sit. This isn't your fault, but you're not faultless. And now you're being irresponsible.

Put the cat in a carrier. Put it in your car. Drive it to your friend's new place. Leave t.

Are you crazy? This is a cat who's lived indoors all her life - and you think she is CRAZY for not wanting to go "explore" when you throw her out of the house for the first time in her life?

FIND HER A NEW HOME. Give this cat a chance to have a real life. Don't slowly kill her like this. You are obviously just hoping she runs away, or is hit by a car, or killed by a loose dog. Don't be a f*cking monster.

The placement rates at both the MoCo shelter and HRA are really high. You could place the cat there with little guilt.

You know what most people would have done in the rural areas? Toss it out the Damn door.

The shelter will take care of the cat as needed.

She didn't kick the cat out the door because she has empathy for this vulnerable animal who was abandoned by its owner. And I don't think "most" people would do that.
