Amy (she/her) @bitter-optimist.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I’m absolutely broken & I don’t know what decisions to make. Do I keep trying to get kitty better? Do I let him go? This is the worst decision to have to make. I want someone to tell me what to do. Thanks for letting me scream into the void. (3/3) 000
Amy (she/her) @bitter-optimist.bsky.social · 20/05/2026The teen is his person & they’re devastated. They have a week of school left & a couple classes to catch up in to pass. If we have to let kitty go, I don’t know how the teen will do. We’ve had so much loss, especially in the last few months. (2/3) 100
Amy (she/her) @bitter-optimist.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I never post over here, but I’m screaming into the void out of sheer desperation. My 15yo cat is extremely sick & I don’t know if he’s going to pull through. I desperately miss my husband and my mom. I can’t stand the idea of losing the cat. (1/3) 100
