For a start, please ignore TheGuruOfTheSauce-he sounds insensitive and ignorant.
thisissomuchfun is right-you sound like a nice, thoughtful man.
It is good of you to want to give that disabled man your cat but will your cat be happy there?
Your cat's happiness is quite important and if it is already settled with you (despite knocking things over) and seems content enough, it would be unfair in a way to disrupt his life.
Will the cat get on well with the new puppy?
While it is possible to keep a cat and a dog (they will be company for eachother), they are also quite demanding, as you know.
If the puppy is stressing you out too much, and you want to give more time to your career, maybe you should give the puppy back to where you got her and allow somebody else to give her a good home. It won't make you and irresponsible douchebag-it will show that you care for this pup's future.
I suppose I am not really helping here!
Just throwing a few thoughts around.
Maybe when you are more sorted with your career etc, you may want to adopt another dog (maybe rather than a demanding puppy) for companionship. Yes, they are great for attracting attention whist out on walks too.
But it sounds like you have a lot on your plate at the moment.
You must do what is right for your animals. Has the puppy bonded with you yet? Do you think that you might be able to persevere with the puppy?
I wish you all the best and do let us know what decisions you make.
Is it normal to want to give up a puppy after a few days?
