past allergy stuff, my cats, request for commentfic/gifs/etc
Hi everyone!
Today my wonderful cat and her sister my husband's cat were taken to a family member to be there for a month or more.
I was allergic to cats but when we got mine, I had no problem with my husband's cat because the allergy medicine controlled all my symptoms. And things were okay when my cat was a kitten, too. But then stuff started changing with my health and such. And so I am more sensitive to the cats, which is not a huge problem by itself I don't think. But when we try to get the house clean, as is very much needed because there's a lot of dusty also-allergic areas, the combination of things causes my allergies to be completely miserable for me.
Not just uncomfortable, but really bad, as a bit ago the allergy-based congestion would not go away and led to pneumonia and three separate weeks of trying three separate antibiotics before the rattle in my chest went away.
So anyway, this is the reason why my darling wonderful lovely cat is not with me at the moment. My husband stayed around a bit after he took them and he said she settled in nicely. And I am doing good right now, but only because I got my panic out of the way (or at least, I hope) earlier. I had some pet-based guilt issues already and while I know for a fact that this is not my fault it is hard to deal with.
My cat isn't one of those that will ignore you and not need to be loved. No, she adores me to bits as I do her. She's learned tricks for me and comes when I call and she lights up when I come out of the bedroom in the mornings and runs towards me. So while I know she'll be fine for the month or so that she is gone I can't help but feel that she needs me and I am not there for her.
As I said I'm doing really well now, but I have a feeling I could go back to being panicked easily. So I thought if I could ask you, if you have time/energy/inspiration, if you could share some fandom or happy things with me?
I wouldn't want anything involving pets, happy or not, because it would make me cry. Even happy tears would be very overwhelming right now.
But non-animal happy gifs, or commentfic involving someone knowing a friend is there for them, knowing someone always has their back? That would be awesome.
Or just knowing you've listened.
'Cause.. well, I do know that, with who I am and some of the stuff I've dealt with, it makes sense to have issues about leaving my cats with someone else. But when you get into that guilt-mode, it's very easy to doubt yourself, and doubt what's going on inside your head. I mean, I know I shouldn't be *so* bothered, because she and her "sister" will be fine, but
Um okay :) I should stop rambling. But yes. Thank you for reading. *hugs you all*
