Anxious about adopting a cat

Well, I've wanted a cat for years. I had a kitten before but my mother had given her away without me knowing.. Even though that was a while ago I don't want to have to get rid of the kitten if anything goes wrong. I am planning on adopting my friend's father's kitten at the end of June. (I was planning on going to the shelter but corona virus gotten worse, also they didn't mean to have kittens... the cat ran away and ended up getting pregnant). They have to get rid of the kittens and i volunteered to take one that i bond with the most. Now I have so much anxiety, I told my ex who has 3 cats that I'm scared of not being good enough. I did take care of my last cat my mom just never let me take her to the vet (a little back story my cousin surprised me with one idk where she got her from but she used the bathroom on the floors even when the litter box was clean). Now that i am an adult and am capable of doing things on my own i'm still unsure. I've asked for a cat for so long, I take care of animals as a job and have no issue with the responsibility. I've noticed ever since this virus my anxiety has gotten worse, cats and dogs help me with my depression and anxiety. I am financially stable and have more than enough time now that I am in college and am home. When I move I even plan on taking my cat to University with me. Has anyone experienced this? I assume once there's a bond things might be better.
