Bought a Douglas Cat

They don't sell them in physical stores in my country, but I'm on holiday abroad and went into a toy shop. The first day I didn't buy anything, but I went back a second day because I was nearby... and after holding her a bit and stroking her I was like, hmmm. There was a second cat and I was holding both and a lady asked me will you buy both? I said no, she said oh good as I want to buy one, i just love cats! So then I was like, I have to get one XD

The fur is definitely not as soft as some douglas plushies I touched, who were insanely soft, but after stroking her a couple minutes it wasn't so bad. At first I thought she felt too rough.

I might still hand-wash her and add conditioner when I get home.. not sure yet. Don't want to wreck her!

It never seems to get better... basic interactions leave me anxious and ashamed

I'm at work, I walk up to headteacher's office and couldn't see through window, on door the little message was on "knock" and not "do not disturb " so I just went for it and knocked. I couldn't hear if someone said anything, didn't even know if someone was in there, so I slowly opened the door only to see he was there with someone and he just walked to the door at that moment.

I was going to give him something so I ended up handing it over silent and walking away like some absolute moron... now I feel so stupid and ashamed and super anxious.
