Answer 2

Answer:

B. He abuses his wife and pet cat.

Explanation:

While he calls attention to that his changing demeanor as to those with whom he shared a living arrangement – spouse and pets – had caused a disintegration in his connections, he notes that his affections for the feline had not comparatively changed. That the cat, notwithstanding, changes its frame of mind towards the storyteller is an immediate impression of its smart nature: it detects the storyteller's developing threatening vibe toward each one of people around him and responds likewise, subsequently distancing itself from its lord.
