Currently struggling with a situation where either compulsion doesn’t provide relief
I just got a new water fountain for my cat. It has the option to be plugged in or cordless. While I was setting it up, I read in the manual that the cordless dock is a lithium ion battery. I already have a fear of leaving my vacuum plugged in because I’m scared of the lithium battery exploding.
However, if you leave the dock unplugged, it only dispenses water if your pet is near. The only way for it to have a continuous flow of water is for the dock to be plugged in. I’m always so anxious about my cat’s health and I worry he won’t drink enough water (and then get a fatal urinary blockage or kidney disease) if I leave it on the motion sensor option, because with our last fountain water was always flowing and he seems drawn to it. But if I leave it plugged in what if it explodes
At this point I want to return the fountain because either option just leaves me in a spiral and terrified that it’s going to explode or harm my cat’s health regardless, but then I’m just giving into my obsession. I could go back to our old fountain, but it’s plastic and stainless steel is preferred due to plastic harbouring bacteria more easily.
I know that when I’m at work I’m going to constantly be checking my camera to make sure my cat and house is okay. I also can’t stop googling and researching. I feel so stuck and it’s making me so anxious.

My hair from January to now!
Pic 1 is where I started: Shag cut with grown out curtain bangs & my natural colour
Pic 2 / january: wanted a change but was nervous, so opted for a colour depositing conditioner. Subtle & didn’t last long and I knew I wanted to go darked
Pic 3 / march: demi-permanent gloss (& a little bang trim)! I loved it but was still itching to go darker
Pic 4 / april: permanently dyed it & revived my shag!
Pic 5 / may: hair looks pretty much the same, but at this point I was fixated on the idea of getting baby bangs
Pic 6 / 2 days ago: baby bangs!!
Got my curtain bangs cut into baby bangs
I honestly love how both look on me!!
Got baby bangs today ✂️
Don’t mind the scrubs lol, heading to my night shift rn
