Alex Andreou is a writer, actor and aspiring owner of a rescue cat.
We’ve never met IRL but judging from his online presence, he seems like the kind of person who would give a cat a loving home.
But when Andreou recently drove two hours to adopt a cat that “desperately needed rehoming,” he says he was turned down by the cat’s caregiver “for being gay.” How does that affect his ability to care for a cat?? Great question: it doesn’t! It’s called bigotry and sadly it’s thriving in 2017.
