They are the one with prime responsibility for ensuring the cat is placed safely. This isn’t to say that you won’t be a perfect owner, I’m sure you would be, but it seems there has been a breakdown in communication between you, and I think the onus is on you, not the owner, to deal with that appropriately.
Ive had really bad periods of mental health over the years, and had the label “weirdo” thrown at me on many occasions. I’m not sure that was the right approach with your initial post, if you were seeking sympathy for your situation.
I hope you’re successful in finding a cat soon, and perhaps be clearer in your communication with the next owner.

I understand what you said, but that lady is way to picky & unreasonable. People forget things at times. Especially when they’re busy.
I don’t understand why you think she has mental health issues. She is a poor communicator obviously. I’m not the problem, she is.
She could’ve just asked me for the missing information & pics of the house too. That’s what I would’ve done.
So it wasn’t all on me. She also ignored my text when I said that I forgot to email her the form. She read it but didn’t respond back for a day.
She also made it very difficult to see the cat. Supposedly she has a flexible schedule, but that’s obviously not the case as she took forever just to agree to a day to come over to see the cat.
It was very frustrating. I didn’t say anything to her about that though.
She finally chose a time to where I said I’d be at work. Weird. She was going to let me see the cat at her place before seeing the form, but then she changed her mind & said that she needs to see the form first & then see our house in person.
Very weird! We have never ever had anyone ask to see out house first. I then said no, sorry, my husband uncomfortable with that.
So she said send pics then. So, she IS an annoying weirdo. She had the chance to give that cat to a loving home & she blew it with her rigid ways & her paranoia.
I wouldn’t be to surprised if she asked to see I.D, & for us to agree to a full background check before she could let us even see the cat, lol 😆
