Hello!
I am a volounteer at my local animal shelter (only volounteers work there). I am going to adopt a cat, but not today nor tomorrow - in about 2 months. The problem is, that I have let myself fall in love with a cat - the most wonderful one. When I go to the shelter, he runs and comes to me every time just to sit on my lap while I pet him. Many people want this cat, and Ive asked already if I could just adopt him in 2 months (they do not euthanize their cats). I feel heartbroken and betrayed, in a way. How am I supposed to overcome my sadness and my paranoia?
Ps. I go to the shelter very often now, as I feel like he is going to leave any moment. I can't sleep. I can't have a cat right now because my parents are divorcing and my mother would like to bring a cat into a calm and friendly home. Inside I am still hoping that noone will adopt him, but that's highly unlikely.
