First of all, I know in these unprecedented times people are losing family members, and a lot of people think ‘just a cat’ but I’m honestly heartbroken. A close friend of mine recently lost a parent and the guilt I feel being this grief stricken over my wee furry friend in unreal, is this remotely normal?
She became ill on Xmas day and had to be put to sleep just a few days later, it was so quick.
My youngest dc has autism and other disabilities and I honestly have never seen anyone closer to an animal as my dd was. She hasn’t stopped crying since and it’s so hard.
I keep stretching my feet out at night to feel the weight of her little body and she’s just not there anymore.
Over the last 12 years she has been through every hard moment in our lives, her sweet little purring calming us through the worst times.
Someone tell me this gets easier, and how can I help dd through this too?
