Does sound like second thoughts or a 'helpful' friend with a hate on for cats as pets. I think you've done the right thing pausing proceedings. Maybe encourage her to look at some Jackson Galaxy videos on how to stop bad cat behaviour might help her get her thoughts together. Does sound like she's not a small personal animal person though. Making the transition from non-pet owner to pet owner is a big one - like having a kid.
Yeah that seems to have scared her off I guess. She was super excited to adopt with me. this was going to be a 50-50 partnership kinda things but oh well
