god dammit

So there was this super sweet cat hanging outside mom's house. Trilly meows, climbed right up on your chest and unfortunately followed you everywhere even to your car. Apparently my dad ran him over this morning, but didn't kill him, but he hobbled in to the bush so I need to go over at lunch to coax him out to be put to sleep. I had actually been hoping mom would take him in since Misty had passed and she'd gotten him fixed and we were giving him medicine and now...this. I know I need to stop getting so attached to cats, but goddamnit, at least it could have been spaced out. And you'd think we'd have built up more good karma by taking care of every one that comes along.

*giant kitty hugs* I'm so sorry. :/

*hugs back* Thanks. I heard a low meow, but not much else coming from the bush. I guess he had been out in the yard, but then Mom moved him to the porch, but he ran into the bush before she could get him in the crate. And of course, my dad's right there as soon as I walk in and then follows me out in the yard, like just get away okay? I know it was an accident but seriously, don't want to deal with you, esp when I'm trying not to lose my shit all over the front yard, which I ended up doing anyway. I guess some cats do survive this kind of thing, but I don't know. My mom's comes out just to tell me how stupid he was, like that helps, too. :| Ya'll call me out here on my lunch break and all other times to deal with this kind of stuff, at least just let me cry in peace, christ.

You are a better person than I am. I would fall to absolute pieces and be pretty much useless because I hate seeing people/animals in pain like that. :/

I'm going to hope kitty is like the neighbor's dog when I was growing up. She was a bit... dim and the neighbor's son hit the dog with the car, two separate times and other than coming out even dimmer than before, she turned out okay.
