I'm sorry to hear things didn't go as planned. Sometimes the energy just isn't flowing right for accomplishing the tasks you want, and you can't force it to work. When you're worried about someone you care about, be they feline or human, it can definitely throw things off. I think it's important to give yourself permission to have a day that's just a wash from time to time. Whether it feels like it or not, it does sound like you got some things accomplished, so the day wasn't a total loss. I hope tomorrow works out better for you, and that your sweet kitty is soon on the mend.
