Does anyone else have those moments when you feel like you’re just not doing enough for your pets?
I try to go above and beyond for them every chance I get but I somehow always feel like it’s not enough. I don’t know if it’s just that I don’t know what they’re thinking and therefore feel the need to give them all I can to be sure they’re happy, or if it’s just my own personal insecurities that make me want to overcompensate.
Given the chance, I’d blow my paycheck on things I THINK they want rather than using my money to better my own life, pay my bills, or just make things a little easier for me.
I obsess over them, their happiness, and their health. I realize that I do and I can also tell myself that sometimes it’s too much. I just can’t stop spoiling them. And it’s not because “they’ve been really good lately” or “this is something that they haven’t had in a while”. It’s just because they exist. I can’t stop rewarding behavior, good or bad, simply because I always feel like I should be giving them more.
Am I alone here? Am I going crazy?
