Just signed up to ask for advice. I grew up a cat lover, I had a cat growing up lived about 17 years, and was an ornery but lovable old man. This past year a friend at work was fostering some kittens for the local humane society and I fell in love with them and chose to adopt one. She is 8 weeks old, a total sweetheart, and currently is curled up with me napping right now. I am only 3 days into having her in my life but I've had this weird anxious pit in my stomach nonstop worried about caring for her, how she acts when I'm not with her if the neighbors will be bothered by her, why won't she stop meowing, etc. I think it started after the first night she wouldn't let me sleep, constantly meowing. Last night I let her free roam and she did better and only woke me up twice. I hate that I'm thinking like this, but I don't know how to make these feelings go away, I've even thought about bringing her back to the humane society
My main questions are:
Why am I having thoughts like this?
How do I get her to quiet down?
Am I fit to be a pet owner?
