crazy cat lady (---) 

So the latest is that I got subjected to a lengthy tirade about "looking into her private affairs" and "prying" because during Ida she had texted us (WHY?!?) saying she was stuck with no power, phone battery, or lights.

We found her address with a very basic Google search, LITERALLY just her first name plus her phone number, and had her landlord come check in on her.

Because she'd asked us for help, we couldn't contact the other people she asked us to contact (who apparently ALSO barely know her). And we did what we could in a BIG FUCKING PANIC because this old lady came to us saying she needed help and then we couldn't contact her.

She swears this "prying" has opened up a "whole can of worms" for her and she's sounds like she's determined we hacked her or something. Maybe she didn't want her landlord contacted during the storm, maybe she has something in her past she wants to hide, IDFK.

I have blocked her number and told her that she can contact Peggy to arrange to pick up her food IF AND ONLY IF she doesn't harass her about anything else.

I am so afraid, given all the signs that this woman is an obsessive nutcase with a history of harassing people, that we are now on her Shit List and we or our cats are going to have to suffer more for it down the line-- for trying to help an old lady we didn't even WANT to get involved with.
