This is a personal record of my life with my cat, Mickey, who lives with a chronic illness.

A Gentle and Brave Cat
Mickey has always been a gentle and brave cat.
Even during his health struggles, he faces each day quietly, with those calm eyes that seem to say,
“I’ll be okay.”
The Regret That Followed the Vaccination
After his recent vaccination, however, something inside me began to ache with regret.
I wondered if I truly made the right decision for him.
At the time, I believed I was protecting him —
but for a cat with fragile kidneys, even one small step can sometimes lead to unexpected burdens.
Looking Back and Learning
Looking back, I realize how important it is to listen to each cat’s unique condition.
What’s “good” in general may not always be “good” for our cat.
I wish I had been more cautious,
asked more questions,
and weighed the risks more carefully.
What I Can Do Now
Now, I focus on the things I can do:
- Support his kidneys gently
- Keep his environment calm and stress-free
- Cherish each small moment we share
I can’t change what’s already happened,
but I can choose to love him even more deeply with every new day.
