    A cat might be really good for your mental health. I feel like my cats give me a purpose and even if i cant take care of myself ill always take care of them

    As someone who hasn't felt okay for a number of years... Seeing you have good days, lighthearted moments, go to work, make dinner and all the little and big things despite the fact that you are going through difficult situation; it's a great motivation to not give up. There's more to life than whatever bad situation we may be in.❤❤❤❤

    I am generally a silent viewer but I honestly have to say that your resilience and perseverance despite whatever is impacting your mental health is truly admirable. I know it may not feel like it to you but you are still able to get up each day and push through to better yourself. It is understandably disheartening to have hope that things will get better and then they don’t. Despite that though you are still doing everything you need to do to take care of whatever needs to be done. I hope that your situation improves soon but I also hope that once it’s all said and done you can look back on this moment and still feel proud of how you’ve persevered!! you truly can do really hard things!! 🫶🏽

    Maybe you should go over and hang out with your friends cats to see if it badly triggers your allergies before you commit to either adopting that cat or a new one? If you don’t have a bad reaction, I definitely think a pet would be amazing for you. I pretty impulsively adopted my dog when I was around 23 and I’m 31 now - definitely one of my best life decisions, he’s my best friend in the world

    As a proud cat lady (my husband and I have 4), As long as you’re financially able, it is never a bad idea to have a furry companion around! PLUS cats are far more convenient and easy to care for than dogs, bunnies, etc. ALSSOOO I’ve been with my company for 4 years now and have never had to leave my home for them 😅😂

      what has your experience been with the financial responsibly of owning cats?

    • @RebeccaABeaudoin
      @RebeccaABeaudoin หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      For the 4 cats we spend $200 a quarter on litter (we have a pretty litter subscription) and around $30-50 a month on food. Since we have indoor cats we got their shots and all that when we first got them and when we moved, but that was it so a one time charge for each of a hundred. Toys/scratchers are maybe $100 a year?? All in all it is a decent amount to get started, as with any pet, but once you are settled in together it’s inexpensive in my opinion and experience

    I'm very much a dog person, but I have a cat and I'd definitely recommend getting a rescue cat like that!
    Having a dog is a much bigger commitment, you can buy things like a automatic feeder, automatic cleaning litter tray, and a cat water fountain that means if you need to, you can leave your cat alone for 24 hours (or more, but not too long as they'll get lonely) no problem, but you couldn't do the same for a dog. Instead you'd have to put them in doggy day care, etc.
    And, it turns out cats do like snuggles too, so while im still very much a dog person, I can now see why some people are cat people

I am hoping things are better for you now, and that you will be out of the situation that is causing you hurt. Take good care and be kind to yourself. Find joy and happiness where you can. You are a good person with a kind heart, and better days will come your way soon.

    The amount of thought you're putting into even the idea of adopting a pet just shows that you'd be an amazing pet owner! Two of my cats were strays that just showed up at our houses (one literally just let herself in when we had the door open to get groceries in lol) and they were the sweetest things ever! It'll probably be easier because you don't have any pets already, just give them time and space and listen to their body language. Cats especially will tell you exactly how they're feeling 😂

    Usually a silent viewer but just wanted to say your mental health struggles and recent happenings remind me so much of my last job before I got laid off in April (and thank god I did). I developed insomnia, had to go back on anxiety meds (which is fine, but I was in crisis mode), lost so much weight, and was having a menty b like every other day. I worked weekends and holidays (including Christmas Day) just to keep up or because I had to. I hope you either have been feeling better about your job or are finding one that works better for you ❤ thank you for always being honest with us!

    Hey Keegan, I loved the vlog this week! 🥰 Regarding the stray cat that you may potentially get- I got a cat from a shelter about 1 year ago and it was the BEST decision I have ever made! My cat has a similar backstory, was domesticated and then unfortunately became a stray. If you decide to get the stray cat, I would definitely buy these things: enrichment toys, automatic feeder, stainless steel litter box, and a cat water fountain! Luckily, cats are very self-sufficient (as long as there is food on a schedule and fresh water) so you would be able to leave them alone while you are at work! When I got my cat, I worked all 5 days in office and I was just worried about bonding with her but that was not a problem! Using enrichment toys for playtime with you is a great way to bond with the cat and make sure they trust you. My vote is YES for a cat!

    Toyota is the best!

I have a Toyota Camry from 2012 and I keep up on basic maintenance and it runs perfectly.

    My household is allergic to cats. A stray kitten kept coming into our yard. We fell in love with it. Unfortunately, winter was around the corner, and we were stressing about it being in the elements. I did research and began feeding it Purina Pro Plan Allergen Reducing, Indoor Cat Food, LIVECLEAR for kittens (they have it for adult cats too) and using Burt's Bees Naturally Derived Dander Reducing Wipes for his fur. I purchased both on Amazon. He is now 2 years old. No allergy issues at all.

    If you get a cat make sure to feed it wet food and have water at all times to help prevent utis and urinary blockages which are more common in male cats than females but it’s a real thing and by making sure they are hydrated you can prevent them from having to go through surgery or death early in life

I would hate for good intentions to turn bad if you end up with that fur baby & then for health reasons, just can’t do it! I love animals (more dog than cat person here), but love them all, however when I go to my Mom’s house and get around her cats (who I love), when I leave.. I feel rough… just a thought! ❤

    This is my first video of yours! I’m always a silent viewer but really resonate with how you’re feeling. I 100% recommend getting a cat as a companion. I was in a similar situation, feeling very lonely, sad, living alone and I got an adult (5 y/o) lap cat who is the best decision I’ve ever made. Having someone to come home to, excited to see you, urging you to get out of bed is SO helpful. As someone who was also concerned about finances I was worried about a cat but they are relatively inexpensive animals - obviously you should be prepared for a vet bill at any point for emergencies but their monthly cost is not a lot at all- maybe $20-50 a month. Food lasts a while, litter is always on sale, toys are so cheap. Please consider it! There are so many hypo allergenic options too!

Her pet insurance (highly recommended when they’re young before they develop anything- insurance doesn’t cover preexisting conditions) is about $200 annually. I got lucky and got such a cuddle bug. She loves to snuggle on the couch❤ You can train them not to scratch up items or get on the counter, etc. And they don’t chew like a puppy! She’s ok being left home alone for a whole workday (or more) and they make autofeeders (even for wet food!!) so that if you have a looong day of commitments they don’t have to miss a meal/have a late meal

    Sooooo I was a self proclaimed dog person until I adopted two cats!

    I know not every cat is that way, but they truly are so amazing and can be very much like dogs in a lot of ways.
    I feed them three times a day, treats… they get annoyed if we don’t hang. 😂 But I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Also, initial vet bills are pricey but then taper off to yearly checkups so manageable.

    Keegan I have an indoor cat and I am severely allergic to pet dander. I take Claritin in the mornings and singulair at night. I also regularly bathe the cat and run the roomba every day at least. I also brush him to remove excess fur. I’ve never had a bad reaction to him/his dander, and he is a very big long haired cat. I am just very diligent about washing my hands after I have directly petted him before touching my face. You can definitely make it work!

    Girlll you are definitely overthinking the cat. I’m not an impulsive person most of the time and the one big time I acted on impulse was when I decided I wanted to get my first pet (non family pet). 5 years ago I moved into my first apartment was a little lonely without my family cat and dog around and a few weeks later said to myself just start looking for cats. Within a week of looking I found, visited and brought home my little fur bby. Went to see her, she was so small (think she was the runt of her litter) and brought her home the same day. It was the best impulsive decision I’ve made so far. She’s literally my best friend and the greatest joy of my life. I love her and I can’t believe she’s already 5 years old. I’ve been wanting to get her a sister as well but it’s not the right time, so I totally get where you are coming from as well.

I think a cat would be really nice company for you and them. cats are also pretty self sufficient and enjoy alone time and sleep a lotttt, so I don’t think that you at work would be too much of a problem. As long as there’s a balance and you incorporate decent play time while your home and some enrichment toys for when you’re out. Even if things don’t work out with getting this cat I think you should still look at adopting one!

    I’m a dog person but hope this cat finds it’s forever home. I do have allergies in general but they have been manageable with over the counter medication(usually a generic brand compare to Zyrtec or when it gets really bad I will take a generic brand compare to Benadryl before bed).
    September was a highly emotional month for me. Got laid off from a position I had only been at 6 months. Even though the position was so/so I was intending to stay because it was remote, 8am to 5pm, full time with a great benefits package (pto, sick days, retirement match, medical, dental, vision, and more)
    Glad that your job at least gave you 1 day off in trade for working all weekend. Hopefully they also gave you a little extra pay or at least paid for the flights, hotel, etc

I’m 25 and really struggle with loneliness sometimes but they help me soooooo much. So I’m a huge proponent of getting a pet, lol.

    I’m allergic to cats as well, but I always wanted one, and in 2020 I got a kitten. I decided I needed to try, and it has been amazing. I hear a lot of people say that they grow immune to their own cat, because the body gets used to the specific allergens. Not sure how this works scientifically, but it has been true for me. I can still feel it on certain days, and a few times a year when my cat is changing to/from her winter fur.
    Not sure how good it would be for a rehomed cat to come in to a new home and then having to change homes again after if it turns out you are unable to keep it in your home, though 🤷🏻‍♀️

    In my opinion you’ll never feel fully ready for a pet!! I was soooo nervous to get a cat but my fiance really wanted one so we ended up adopting a 2 month old kitten and she’s the absolute best!!! I’ve also heard that it can help allergies to keep everything really clean with a cat! So cleaning the litter box super often and vacuuming a lot!! (But neither of us are allergic so I’m only going off of what people I know that are allergic have said haha!!)

    As a proud cat mom, if you end up adopting that stray, you can DM me for all the questions you might have - what to buy, how to care for them and all that jazz! Jon (my amazing cat that even watches you with me when I'm home from college!) was adopted by after he was found on the street and I always say that I didn't just rescued him, he rescued me as well! Also most people I know who are allergic to cats said that getting a cat helped them getting over said allergy (don't know the full veracity of that statment, but that's what they said!).

    Harumi Sushi in downtown Phoenix ??? They used to be a small little sushi place that was SO GOOD ! Ever since they moved to that fancy hotel they changed the quality of their foods and increased the prices. Used to be my ALL TIME favorite sushi place but ever since they moved they made so many changes. I’ve gone 4 times to their new location and got food poisoning each time….

    I think the best thing you can do if you are REALLY wanting a cat is to foster first. If everything works out with this cat to stay with your friend, there are still SO many cats in shelters looking for forever homes. Fostering would give you the chance to bring a cat in for a few weeks and see if it is a good fit (for both you and the cat - every cat has such a different personality) without making the full commitment right off the bat. It is a huge responsibility to take in a cat, and important to consider the cost of vet bills, emergency vet bills, pet sitters, food, litter etc before making that commitment. But I can also say being able to have a cat after not being able to for years has severely improved my mental health. Even when you feel alone, you're not alone. I know we'll never know what's going on that has been having such a negative impact on you and causing you to cry everyday, but if you think you can handle the responsibility I think having the cat would do wonders for you at this stage of life. But you *have* to go into it with the mindset that this cat could potentially be around for the next 10-20 yrs, depending on its age when you adopt it. Meet your husband, your kids, future dogs, etc. If you're not willing to make that serious of a commitment, it's not fair to the pet.
    also, I really miss the reset videos. Every time a new month rolls around I hope that I'll see one pop up and it is definitely sad when it doesn't haha. If I can make a suggestion, you should check out Grace Nevitt's channel. She's currently doing a no-buy year and her channel is mainly focused on intentional living and tips for not feeling like you need to buy something all the time. Her current system might be a bit extreme for the habits you're looking to change, but I think you might be able to get something out of some of her videos and adapt it to fit your own life :) She's really been helping me rewire my brain so I don't shop as much lol

    As someone who grew up a dog person... I have officially become a crazy cat lady. Cats are just cool little sarcastic, cuddly, asshole companions you never knew you needed. They are so much easier than dogs. I struggle with anxiety and depression and when I have a bad day mine stick to me like glue. I read something once that it is scientifically proven that a cats purr can heal people. It reduces stress and lowers your blood pressure. When I go somewhere... I am the weirdo that can't wait to go home because I miss my cats. A pet can change your life... BUT it is a major commitment. There are definitely workarounds for allergies and a lot of more hypoallergenic breeds. But I agree with the person who said to spend some time with the cat first to see how you react to their dander. If it's mild a daily allergy pill might help.

    You are definitely NOT being stupid for crying. You are crying because you're hurting; all of your subscribers know that you are a good person and whoever/whatever is putting you through this pain needs to stop. You are going to have to put all the details in the book of your life which you will surely write one day.
