Misc Ethical and/or Moral dilemma - Page 4

A few months back my girlfriend and I took in a friend in need. To make a long story short the guy owned a 1 year old husky mix and an adult cat. This guy has had a pretty hard life growing up. His ex gave him a 3 month old husky mix as a gift, then broke up with him about a month later. He never asked for it, and after they split was never really able to take care of it. He is an emotional mess and pretty much sleeps all the time except for when he is working.

Last week, after his dog pissed all over our house, and he realized everybody was better off if the dog went to a better home. The dog has a better home now, and some pretty awesome new owners. About two days after the dog left our house his cat ran outside while we let our own dogs out. His cat is not an outdoor cat. My girlfriend and I put up flyers for it today (he hasn't made an effort to find it in any fashion), but while putting up flyers we discovered the deceased cat in some brush by the road.

We are beyond torn on what to do. Currently his cat is wrapped up in a towel in my garage, and I really don't want to tell him, even though that is the easiest thing to do. I really don't know if this guy can handle more shit on his already large pile of shit he calls a life. I already found a dead cat today, and I really don't want to find a dead roommate another day.

tl;dr: Roommate is a broken depressed human that had to give up his dog, and now lost his cat forever. Do I tell this poor soul, or let him have false hope?

Sounds to me like he needs to get himself in order and ignore the pussy for a while...

Depression can be immobilizing. Let's not forget the guy sleeping all day is a classic sign of severe depression. He needs help. Him not actively searching for the cat is not a sign he doesn't care.

Swing around the cat in a towel and say "You can't swing a dead cat these days without hitting a little bitch" then hit him with it.

There's a lot of talk about putting a dead cat in the freezer in this thread, and I'm just not comfortable with that.

Depression is the biggest crock of shit there is. All my friends who claim to be depressed are also fat as ****, never get laid, never make much money, pretty much a giant pieces of shit. Of course you are going to get the blues when you suck at life. Pull yourself out of it and realize there are actual people going through struggles other whatever you are going through. Prescription companies are loving it though.

Tough talk time.

Dude you cat is dead.

And if you don't start getting your shit together, you're gonna have to find a new crash pad.

This cat sounds like a selfish prick anyhow. It's supposed buddy is "depressed" and at rock bottom, and the little bastard runs off the first chance he gets? **** that cat.

These posts being back to back and completely making sense is some sort of a ****ed up CP sign.

Better tell him the cat died before you're making a "depressed homeless dude knocked up my girlfriend, what do I do" post.

Agreed. My younger brother has this issue with my older brother.

Not the cat part.

Tough situation.
