coping with the death of a pet


The death of a beloved cat can bring about a vast array of emotional, physical, and spiritual upheavals in your life. It is impossible to explain grief to someone who has never had to deal with the loss of a loved one. But for those of us who have had to endure this hardship, grief almost always is a life altering experience.

Grief is a powerful force. It can envelop your soul, delving you into such a dark, black abyss that you do not know how or where to find the strength to crawl back into the light.

The most important advice in overcoming grief is to not let anyone dictate a time schedule or method that you are suppose to follow to heal. Take as much time as you need to recover. This can be from a few months to years for a much loved pet.
