Lately I have been feeling horrible. Today I called my T, he has deeply concerned... He Will call me tomorrow and I am going to see him Next week.
.... Someone offered me a kitten, I LOVE Cats but I feel I am not an adequate owner and I am going to make It sick as I made my dog depressed. I cannot stop thinking I should be dead, through at the same time I hace to take care of my dog even if I am an horrible owner. I want to give a nice place to the abandoned kitten...but I do not feel like a right owner I cannot take care of my own home .

Hi OliverB, no need to be sorry, thanks.
Well, it's very good that you're doing the best by your dog. I doubt very much you're a horrible person because a lot of pet owners aren't as worried about how their pets are feeling as you are about your dog, and about the prospect of taking onboard a kitten as well. You're not horrible, I can tell. Banish those thoughts, please. As for the kitten - if you feel you're not up to the task of caring for him/her, then it's only right that you let someone else take care of him/her. You made the right choice because obviously you need to focus your attention on yourself at present, too, and that's super important. That's all I can say really. Yes, have a good talk with your T, and let your all of your thoughts & feelings out. Depression is a very difficult beast to subdue but you're doing your best and that says a lot. We're all just trying to do our best here I think, so you're not alone, friend. Stay on the path of life and maybe some time down the track there will be another kitten who needs a home. I love cats, too, heh. |

I'm so sorry that you feel this way. If you feel as though you can't handle the task of caring for a kitten, then focus on yourself and try to find somewhere else to take the kitten if you can. I don't think you're a horrible pet owner. Pets can be a source of invaluable companionship. Please take care of yourself.
