    Yeah, I’m trying.

    But I’m fighting for the life of my cat and I’m cooking food for him every 2 hours - since 2 months.

    Me and and my wife are already completely devastated, because we also need to somehow work…

    So getting some real sleep wasn’t an option for quite some time.

    At the moment he is doing better, and I’m trying to get the portions a bit bigger and the times between feeding larger. But it will probably be a process.

    And as this has taken an enormous emotional toll on us, I’ve stepped up my liquor intake. Which doesn’t help with good sleep as well.

    At least he is currently fine…
    That was what we were aiming for. And how I am didn’t matter much - until now I got some some more serious problems as well, because of not sleeping and all the stress.

    Sorry for just venting… I’m just finished…

      I hope your cat gets better. Having sick pets is incredibly emotionally draining. Can’t you just cook a bunch of food (I’m guessing the special meals are to encourage him to eat) and then save and microwave it for him?
