    Getting a pet. I moved out of my parents’ place in 2009, but bringing home a cat a few months later felt like the first big adult decision I had made. I had pets before, but they were family pets so my siblings and parents all had a hand in taking care of them.

    But the feeling of “this is a living thing and it’s relying on me to keep it alive” was an entirely different thing.
