It is implied that Patty may have done something to a cat that Eddy got Saffy when she was younger, however.

Saffy discusses numerous instances of abuse from her childhood (general neglect, Patsy putting cigarettes out on her, etc), but it’s always played for laughs.
Eddie slaps her granddaughter.
In flashbacks of her childhood, Patsy is verbally abused and neglected by her mother.

Played for laughs, but both Eddie and Patsy are definitely alcoholics. Patsy is also addicted to drugs, based on her copious cocaine use in the first few seasons.

Many jokes are made about Patsy having lived as a man in the 1970s, but she quit when “it fell off”.
