I feel like I am doing as much as I can. I noticed today that she has tapeworms (really easy for a cat to get and super easy to treat), so I ordered some medication for that. I don't know what else I could do for her, and yet, I don't feel like it's enough.
Can you explain a little more? Like, did I worry that I'm not doing enough for my family as a kid?
I don't think I'm abusing her at all. I just don't know if I'm giving her the best possible life.

Have you put her on some kind of flea protection? That's how she got the tapeworms in the first place, from fleas.
And please don't ever talk yourself into the idea that someone else would have adopted her from the shelter and that you should return her; most people adopt kittens.
