My aunt and uncle were moving out of their home and they were going to abandon my cousins cat by just leaving it there at the house with no one around. I reached out to my cousin and told him about it so he asked me to keep the cat for him until he finds his own place that would allow pets. One month had passed and I reached out to him to come pick up his cat and he refused each time. Once he said his wife was on the way over to pick up the cat and she never showed up. A few more months passed and he finally reached out and he was ready to take the cat back. By this time I already became attached to the cat and lied and said I gave him away. 2 years has passed and he just found out that I still have the cat. He is threatening to get the cops involved if I don't return it and is adamant that I stole the cat. Is it technically stealing if he refused to pick the cat up after I told him too? I also have a lump sum of vet bills showing that I took him. When I got him, he had cancer and FIV. Does this show that he was neglected? What are my chances of getting to keep him if the cops get involved?
