I'm experiencing some grief pretty heavily and not wanting to allow myself grace for it because we didn't have that pet that long.
Not that I wouldn't meet someone else in my shoes with more empathy and compassion than I am willing to give to myself.
I just can't shake the "What if"s that maybe I didn’t do all I could have soon enough. That the poor kitten could've somehow been saved if I had just taken action earlier. That this was preventable and his death is in part my fault. I keep failing to accepy that no matter what I did or didn't do, it wouldn't have changed the final diagnosis. Nothing I did made that kitty sick. There's no telling if any of the 3 rescues we never called because it was after hours even had the black market medicine. What if the vet was wrong.

@Starcrossed we do our best for our pets where they can’t tell us the problems. We rely on the advice from our vets that we will make the best decisions for those animals. You gave it a loving, warm home whilst it was on this earth so be proud of that. It’s ok to grieve however little time you have them they are part of your family.
