And now I'm going to go have a nap because I think I might end up losing my shit if I experience another emotion right now.

I've had a really hard day. I'm an emotional mess.
I really needed to see this. I'm so glad she's okay. I admire the patience and love and persistence it took for you to nurse her through this. I'm genuinely glad that that kind of love still exists in this world.
Thank you, Seanan.

We have tried to explain that the bath tub is not a litterbox and thus does not contain litter, but she still scratches at the bottom of the tub for several minutes in a vain attempt to cover her poop, then cries at us about it so we'll fix it for her.
She is not very bright, but we love her.

One of my cats will stop at nothing to attain the sweet high of licking dishes. Sometimes we don't stop her in time. Then her delicate tummy gets unhappy (again) and she gets scared to go in the litterbox (again) so she goes in the tub (AGAIN). But then she gets very upset that she can't cover it up

Whenever my cat finds dishes to lick and then gets scared to use the litterbox again, I'm just grateful that she goes in the bathtub because it's so easy to clean
I think she might have broken me.

I remember that, from when I was a kid! There was one near the Kmart my mom always went to ~30 years ago, in west Phoenix. I remember when they remodeled and put in a (what seemed to me at age 6) massive fountain with plants all around it. It seemed absolutely magical to me.

I dearly how it doesn't come down to that, but I think the fact that she'll put their wellbeing first shows the stark contrast between her actual values and the villain they're trying to paint her as.
