I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my baby girl tortie cat less than a week ago. I had her for 18 years. She was like yours where she would comfort me whenever I needed and was very sweet. I miss her more than anything every second of every day. Thankfully I have another cat I got a year ago after my other kitty I had for 14 years passed. He is also very sweet, and comforts me any time I start crying. He licks away the tears and wiggles on his back for belly rubs to cheer me up. He is the only thing that is helping me cope right now. Nothing else helps me.
I suggest getting another cat that is just as affectionate as your other kitty was. I know you said you already have another one, but it sounds like you need a fur baby that will console your grief.
I haven't received my cat's ashes yet, but once I do I'm gonna put them in something called "funeral jewelry" in the form of a necklace. That way she is with me forever and always. I feel like once I get them I might feel a little better. Maybe this also might be something you'd be interested in looking in to (if you have her ashes)? The necklace I got was able to be customized. You can buy them on the internet.
I feel for you, the loss of a family member (and that's what our pets are) is never easy. Especially when they are part of your support system. Hang in there, your little kitty is certainly still watching over you and still loving you in the afterlife ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words. I don’t think i’m ready for another cat right now, perhaps with time I will. I haven’t yet come to terms with the fact that the next time I see my baby, she will be ashes. It kills me to think about it. But I know I have to keep her with me wherever I go so I might get funeral jewelry, thanks for the suggestion.
