Totally get this. Also being an expat in Thailand, earlier this year I got 2 cats. I knew they'd mean certain complications/sacrifice - but those were worth it. What I didn't account for (or predict) was dramatic changes in my life, and now I have to adapt whilst taking the cats into consideration at every step to ensure they're continued happiness. I love them like my own kids and could not be separated from them, but this does bring about sacrifices and limitations.

absolutely. There is a friend of mine here in Da Nang that was doing the right thing and adopted every stray cat she came across. She now has 5 cats and she lives alone. There were huge sacrifices that she had to make and of course when you are looking prospective places to rent having a crazy number of pets like 5 is going to limit your options even more. Now, to make things worse, her contract with the company that she has been with for many years is set to expire in early 2023 and it is looking like she is going to be forced to move back to South Africa.
She is like us, and there is no chance she would abandon her babies but I can't even imagine how expensive it is going to be to transport half of a zoo on the plane with her.
