We lost one of our cats almost 3 weeks ago now. He had been really sick the past year or so and got even worse in the last 6 months of his life. He was bonded with our other kitty, Luna.
At first, she seemed ok, but I am noticing more and more restlessness with her. She meows at me all the time now. I let her out in our back garden about 3 times a day whenever I let my pups out there. I play with her as often as I can every day and spend down time with her just snuggling.. She still seems agitated. I know it could just be her sad or confused.
I came home a few hours ago to find a poo in the hallway. In the past she has done this due to stress, so I can assume that she is having issues adjusting to this loss.
My husband would really rather not get another cat as we have Luna plus 2 dogs. But, I keep wondering more and more if she needs a kitty companion to give her the company she keeps meowing at me for that I can't seem to provide. The dogs let her lean on them and one of our dogs has even starting cleaning her which I was amazed to find the other day.
Am I just projecting maybe that I need to fill a missing spot? How long did you wait after your cat died to get a new companion?
