Sorry to hear about your kittens. I wouldn’t have fed them either. If you overfeed a cat it’s pretty difficult to get them to lose weight, like my cat. He is F A T. (Doesn’t really help when he tries eating out of the dog’s bowl either. ) I don’t think it was your fault that the kittens wandered away either, they could have left for some other reason.

Thanks for the comments and support Matthew and Shyborg. I'm just not quite sure that they were really full. Because when i arrived home and they saw me. They were meowing all over me. Climbing, and clawing their way up my legs (doesnt hurt thanks to my jeans). Hehe. If only i could understand cat language. So yeah. It just seemed that i may have ignored their pleas.
Yeah, although they were fairly new and just got to spend time with them for a short while. I didn't expect i'd feel this bad after their gone. My brother noticed that i felt bad about it and apologized as well.
Our pet dog recently just died last February due to old age. So i kinda feel guilty for not making him more happy while he was alive. I think that's why i've started feeding the pet dog in our office who is also pretty old and has cataracts. Although she can't see very well. She knows whenever i'm nearby now, and comes daily to beg for food. I sometimes like to play a trick with her though. Circling around while she follows my scent and tracks. Its uncanny how she knows where i go.

aww sorry to hear about the cats. It was a really good thing you did taking them in and still thinking about them shows you cared. I know a lot of people say dry type cat food is better but I always feel it makes cats miss meat so it leads to them hunting more although I don't think that has any scientific evidence. We always ended up giving ours scraps of leftover meat from our Sunday roasts But like ShyBorg I bet the kitties were just curious and wanted to explore which isn't your fault especially as they sound like there were pretty wild. Having an office pet sounds like it would make the working day more interesting <3

Actually, she's the pet of our boss. Since the office is just a few floors away from our Boss's apartment, all of us get to see her everyday. I usually just give her a few pieces of food everyday. I don't really do anything else. =)
Thanks for the comforting words though. I guess they took after their wild parents.

Well. I knew it wouldn't last long. We had an interesting conversation today.
Mom: You know your horoscope sign is said to be the best. You're supposed to be better than the other signs out there. You're brother's sign is the lowest among them.
Me: Well then it's probably not true then. Those horoscope signs or whatever are all fake then.
Mom: No. There is something wrong with you. I don't know why you are so quiet and shy.
Me: ............
Sometimes that just makes me want to act differently if i can. Just want to start acting all confident and proud of myself in front of other people. To an extreme extent. Like a person full of hot air. Cause i know i have nothing to back such confidence up.
Well. I know i shouldn't let this affect me. So i'm not going to think about it or dwell on it anymore. I'm only human. And this just happens to be how i grew up to be. Take it or leave it. That's just me. I have other strengths that other extroverts or outgoing people out there don't have. Like any other people out there in their social media accounts, I'm just gonna try to be happy with what i've got.

That does make it sound like she was saying there’s something bad about being shy. But I think, maybe she sees how being shy might affect you and misspoke when she said there’s something “wrong” with you. Maybe you should ask her what she meant by that?
Also, I really don’t believe being shy is something that you can’t change. I’ve definitely become less shy than when I was a kid. If it were impossible, then you wouldn’t hear about all the people who say they’ve overcome their shyness.
What was your fortune though? Got any luck in your future? 😌🔮

Got any luck in your future? 😌🔮 She might mean well, but i think her approach is a bit rough. Basically she thinks/says i'm just weak when she sees me trying to avoid talking to girls. She believes girls are the only ones who are excused to be shy. Guys shouldn't be shy. Or maybe have no reason to be shy. So her statement that there is something "wrong" with me maybe taken in literally from her point of view. She may have forgotten that my dad used to be shy and quiet as well around her. I dunno. Yes, i know there are a lot of stories out there of people overcoming their shyness. I guess there maybe something wrong with me if i still can't overcome it up to now. As for the fortune, there is no fortune reading or anything like that. My mom just believes i belong to a "sign" that is supposedly more better than the other "signs" out there. That's just her belief though and i don't really agree with her.
