Yesterday my mom decided that she was going to get a puppy. After having to rehome a kitten I asked my mom to please not get anymore pets for now. Of course my mom doesn’t listen to it I mean I know it’s weird to expect her to listen to her 35 year old daughter. But I only said it cause I don’t want Scooter getting stressed knowing he dealt with a UTI in September. I’m trying all I can to make sure he doesn’t have another episode cause I can’t afford a vet visit of any kind right now. With the new puppy I’m a little nervous since it will be a medium sized dog which will be bigger than Scooter, Casper, & Nera(my other dog). I know since the pup is only 8 weeks she will basically grow up with them and know not to hurt them. Lately I’m just an anxious person anymore.
With the new pup even though it has only been a day I know Scooter, Casper & Nera will adjust in time. Sadly living in a small space there is not many places for Scooter & Casper to hide.They have a counter they can sit and eat on. They have my room and the bathroom to hide out in for now. They will sometimes go into my parents room too. But I know to solve the problem completely would be to get my own place. But that is not possible right now not until I get a job and find an affordable place. I only do side hustles for money right now which doesn’t get me a lot. It gets me money to buy cat food & litter it’s not enough for an apartment or to pay bills. So until I can get a job to start saving money to get a place I need to find ways to make everything stay calm and go easy. So I think I need to find some calming chews or something for Scooter until he can adjust to the puppy. Does anyone have any recommendations that is affordable?
Sorry this is long I am just frustrated and tired of no one listening to my worries and concern. Tired of being dismissed and my parents especially my mom doing stuff that ups my anxiety knowing I worry about the cats especially Scooter after his UTI scare. I just wish she would have listened to what I asked about no more pets for now. Now I sound like a crazy person. But thank you for listening to me.
