Hi,
don’t worry - your anxious reaction is quite normal. I have had cats all my life, I moved out about 2 years ago and about half a year ago I moved in with my boyfriend. It was clear to us that we NEED a cat. Me personally, I cannot exist without my purring lovebugs, and I hated living without one. So we went out and adopted two little black kittens. Best decision ever, but sonetimes I feel anxious too. I know a lot about cats and have lived with them all my life, but suddenly it’s ME who has to take care of them. If anything goes wrong, they get sick or stuck in a window frame, it is my fault. They rely on my for everything, for survival. The correct food, appropriate vet treatments, everything is on me (and my partner of course). So don’t worry. It’s normal and it’ll be absolutely fine. The anxiousness comes from this intense experience of responsibility!
The best of luck for you two.
