You sound very frustrated and guilty; it's so hard when someone we love is sick and we can't do anything to change it.
Let us know what happens.
Sometimes frustration can make us feel pressured, lose our tempers or say things we regret and then when the sick one gets worse, we blame ourselves. Don't be too hard on yourself for your human reactions to stress, okay?
I bet this happens to many of us, it's happened to me too, with people. Sometimes I hate the way I behave when I'm under stress. I hope you feel emotionally better soon, and you find your cat. Losing a loved one is really terrible, it's hard.
