My cat howling like he was hurt downstairs, he was just offended that he could see the bottom of his bowl. Fed him and sat next to him crying as he paid me no mind and chomped away.

the other day I was really having a time and then my cat shit all over the bath mat. And for some reason it could have made me more upset, it should have made me feel worse but it was like something in me snapped and I was like “I need to get a new bath mat.” It was like having that distraction/that purpose for a couple hours was enough to pull me out a bad spiral.

Just a simple “Oh, what now” has probably saved so many people from a real spiral.
