Is it weird to cry over the thought of losing your pet?

  Today a little girl & her Mother came over to check out our cats. & Usually ppl will want kittens so I wasn't so worried about my grown cats that I have been together with for over half a year, being wanted (sorry does that make sense??) We never let some just choose 1 kitten to take, we make sure they bring home 2 because that'll just be cruel for the kitten to stay at a place he/she doesn't know by him/herself. We do this because I read in a book that cat are much comfortable in even numbers.

Anyways, the girl didn't want 2 kittens! She wanted 1 of the grown cat which happens to have a very strong bond with me (we call him by bf 'cuz he's always with me). Everyone of them are so close to me , but the kittens don't have that tight bond with me, yet. They know me & we play but it's different. Of course I will be sad if the kittens go but the thought of one of my babies being taken away from me really tore me apart. I couldn't tell my parents "no she can't have him" because they already have a hard time making money to feed the family & the cats. But I did say that it wasn't a good idea to take a kitten & a cat because they're different ages .... they didn't listen. A few minutes later, I couldn't handle it & burst out into tears in front of my sister. I just didn't want my baby to go. I'm not a cryer. my parent hardly ever see me cry, so I tried to hide it. My sister told my mom not to give away the cat & when I faced my mom she said that I didn't have to give them away if I didn't want to. I started crying again, only for a few seconds saying "he's my baby" Usually it's the opposite, me telling my mom this & my sister crying over the kittens. my mom would comfort her & also warn everyone in the house to be a little ... nice?? I can't find the word but basically to comfort her. But today, when I was crying, she comfort me a little then she told me to suck it up & that I'm not a Baby. Stop act like a Baby. & immediately my sister defended me saying that it wasn't baby-ish .... she didn't listening. & she heard my dad laughing at me for crying

So the whole point of this question was ... Am I a baby for crying about the fact that I was gonna lose my "bf" or my parents was kinda wrong or acting that differently towards me?? I want to know 'cuz right now I really can't take my mind off of the situation. I feel soo stupid & embarrassed. Do you think I over reacted??
That is PERFECTLY NORMAL! I would do the same thing! (I'm a cryer, but still. lol). Your parents should've realized how upset you were and tried to stop the people from taking your "bf". You definitely didn't over react
Dating your pet is wrong.

i don't think crying over losing a pet that you love makes you a baby. i hope you get to keep your cat! you should speak up, and be honest about wanting to keep your cat.
Perfectly normal 12-year-old-girl histrionics.
Might bea symptom of depression.
no i do not think u over reacted i think ur parants should have saported u more tho cuz that was kinda curwl for them to do .. . if ur really close to this one cat and u still have it then dont give that one away just keep it and take good care of him ... but if u dont have it and hes already gone then im very sorry u had to go threw that ... but it was not right for ur parants to be so mean more so for ue dad to lagh at u like jezz i think they need to grow up and be more saporting to there kids
Listen, I'ma mother (of 3 beautiful gifts). I wish I had the opportunity to exchange my long working hours away from home, when they were growing up. I know what you are going through with the desire to earn a living and wanting to watch the kids grow up. Most parents would rather not have to choose and have the option to earn an income and be available for their family. There wasn't anything like this for me, but there is for you. A very dear friend, came across the Work From Home Directory program. She had great success with it and shared it with me. So far, it's been a life changer for those who've emailed me to say Thanks! Maybe this is something that will work for you as well. I hope so. God Bless and Good Luck!
Dude dont worry about it. Your reaction is perfectly normal. Im 18 and i cried over my dog dying recently. Its only normal that you react like that over something you love and were close to
