This is why sometimes you just leave these types of things to the professionals.

We're here with a Reddit post from the AITA thread that you know we all love to go through. These threads are pretty interesting to read because people come there prepared with their perspectives and opinions on the particular situation at hand.

We really like seeing what everyone's opinions are and how they voted for the OP's situation, which is why you'll often see us cover these posts. With this being said, we're diving into a situation that's submitted by a person who wants to know if they're in the wrong for accidentally giving the wrong information to someone who bought a cat through them.

This person isn't necessarily a professional or anything, and they are the middleman when it comes to people buying pets. The customer is very upset because the cat is older than they were told, and the cat also has medical conditions that were not disclosed prior to the sale.

So OP has come here to see if they are in the wrong for this misinformation getting out or if it was an honest mistake. If you're interested in seeing the full post and hearing more about what they all have to say, then keep on reading as we dive in and give you the full look into the post and some of the best comments.

OP's post is short and to the point. They explain everything from beginning to end and asks if they are wrong for the information being wrong.

People weren;t exactly forgiving in the comments and they really called OP out on not being regulated and helping in ways that might not be legal.

OP actually responded to the comment above, but people still weren't happy because it did get a few downvotes.

It definitely seems like people are not on OP's side and they are very concerned with the fact that they are doing this unregulated and without any actual evidence of getting animals from reputable sources.

Some people tried giving OP the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the decision that they made about the animals.

People are a little conflicted in the comments and people are jumping in all over the place with their opinions on the situation.

OP responded to the comments above to explain a bit more of their perspective and why they aren't doing things that they are "supposed to be doing" when it comes to animal adoption.

Some people definitely do feel like OP is NTA here because they are just the middleman when it comes to the adoption and so they're not legally required to do anything when it comes to the health of the animals.

Well, the comments on this one don't really seem to be aligning in OP's favor and we can completely understand why. There are regulations for things like this usually, which help to protect when something like this happens but without regulations, there is no protection.

After reading this full post, what is your opinion on this situation and do you think that OP is wrong?
