Overwhelmed

by bitterness and anger. The interior designer who oversaw the construction of my new kitchen decided to gossip about my cat's health to my neighbour. Someone was on my side though - Aaron, who works at The Blue Cross - a shelter for abandoned cats. He confronted my neighbour, telling him that Bella is a healthy, well-cared for cat 'who happens to be growing old'. 'Should we put you down because you're old?' he asked. I have a drug dealer living below me, an arsonist living above me and nosey neighbours find time to gossip about little old me.
