Being obsessed with something is never a good thing. When an obsession becomes unhealthy, it can ruin your life and stop you from achieving your dreams. 

People are usually unable to recognize when they start to become obsessive, and even when they do, they downplay it and allow that obsession to grow even more. It's not easy to let go of an obsession and most people usually need professional help and rehabilitation. 

It's crucial to recognize that you have an obsession and need help because it's extremely hard to make someone recognize their own unhealthy obsessions. That's why some people usually need another person to make them realize something about themselves.

A Redditor who goes by the username u/eiooq made a post on the r/AmItheA**hole subReddit where they explained how they threw their daughter out but decided to keep her cats. The user's daughter is obsessed with cats, and her obsession is one of the main reasons why they decided to kick her out. 

The user got a lot of different reactions to their post, scroll down to check out the full Reddit post, and scroll a little further to read the top comments from the original post.

Here's the original post by Reddit user u/eiooq:

Despite all her charitable work, OP's daughter doesn't spend money on the cats she adopted.

OP informed their daughter that she has until October to move out.

OP's daughter felt miserable because of their decision, which made OP doubt their judgment.

Here's how the Reddit community reacted to u/eiooq's post:

Feeding strays isn't as good as people think.

The daughter has a serious problem and needs therapy.

The daughter will most likely get more cats after she moves out.

The daughter's behavior is obsessive, and she needs some help.

The stray population in OP's area must be booming.

The daughter has a good heart, but she needs help.

She kept chasing the feeling and got lost along the way.

OP's neglecting their daughter's mental health.

OP and her spouse are paying for the daughter's expenses.

"Your daughter is an animal hoarder."

Outdoor cats lead to hundreds of strays.

OP's daughter is wasting her time and money. She will become broke because of this.

OP's daughter really needs to get some therapy. Her behavior is definitely not normal.

You need to be able to afford a cat before getting one. Otherwise, you shouldn't get one.

OP should not take her daughter's cats.

The daughter will starve herself but feed the cats.

OP's daughter needs some serious therapeutic support because her behavior is definitely not normal. There's nothing wrong with being a hardcore cat lover, but when it becomes an obsession that keeps you from advancing in life, you need to realize that you need some help.
