I'm so sorry to hear this, Kimberly. I will send prayers for both her and you to find peace.
Our family cat also passed recently, and we were all blessed with how peaceful and pain-free the process ended up being. She wanted to be as close to us all as possible until the very end. Thank god we didn't have to take her into an office where the vets had lost their damn minds like the ones you describe here, and leave her alone among strangers to be jabbed in her final moments.
I've been keeping a tight hold on extreme frustration with the behavior of many people I have to interact with right now (just got off the phone with an HR person for a potential new job who essentially had no answer as to when or whether unvaccinated me would be allowed into the office, or precisely how many Kick Me! signs I would have to wear for the privilege--OR whether or not I could just choose to work from my damn home and skip the drama!) and I just want to say, don't feel too bad about losing it over the phone with that woman. I'm living vicariously through you!
I read below that you've found a better arrangement with saner professionals to help Kiki through her transition. Thank goodness. Make sure to take as good care of yourself as you can, too, in this difficult time.
