Rights of servants

Q: There is a dispute between my mother and I regarding the cat which I keep in my house. My mother wants me to remove the cat from the house, whereas I want to keep the cat, and this causes us to fight.

I live separately with my wife and I am not even living with my mother, yet she has made a huge fuss for me to remove the cat from the house and I am not willing to do that.

Please guide me as to what I should do? We have extreme love for cats, but now my mother seldom visits our home and only comes perhaps twice a month.

Q: I'm the daughter, married and have a baby but still live with my parents as they won't allow me to get my own house.

My mother takes my bank card and spends without my permission nor tells me how much she spent. Is this allowed in Islam? Or is it theft.

Also, she leaves my card in her pocket and now my brother spent nearly £600 without me knowing.

Q:

Q: I come from an abusive family. My mother believes that we should stay as a family even though my father has been abusive all my life. I wanted to know the stance in Islam, are you supposed to take the abuse to stay as a family or is it better to "break" up the family.

Q: If at some point in a person’s life he would disturb a non-Muslim neighbour of his in a way where there was this sort of pipe thing outside his house such that it was loose and when moved back and forth it would make a noise inside the house. So at times where he repeatedly pushed that back and forth and times where he climbed into this neighbour’s garden numerous times without permission and at times the neighbour may have come out angry at this. The neighbour has passed away now. What do I do?

Q: Under what circumstances can a person break family ties with his/her own siblings?

Q: Is it a must/obligatory to keep contact with distant relatives (parents cousins)? If a person does not wish to keep contact with distant relatives but the parents force him to do so, then what should he do? If a person doesn’t wish to keep any contact, will he be sinful?
