Why is she so suddenly compelled to dump "Cat" into the rain?

I am watching the film now but will turn it off before the cat scene.
It's emotional, no doubt it, but the payoff is worth it. Granted, I prefer to watch this film alone, particularly the ending, as I cry uncontrollably. -

There is payoff, true but I still can't watch the scene. I hope to foster a cat that was tossed from a car so it the situation is too close to me to detach from it.

In the novella, "Paul" never sees Holly again but he sees a carved African artwork that looks just like her. Months later, after searching the neighborhood where she dumped the cat, he thinks he sees it, warm and well-fed, in the window of somebody's apartment, and ends the story hoping that Holly, like the cat, found a place she could call home. The ending is about hope - not guarantees- that these semi-wild things who passed his way have landed on their feet
