I don't really think you can get over death, the best you can do is accept it.
Even though your cat wasn't forever, your memories with her are. She was given a time of birth and a time of death, and unfortunately, that day was her day to go. She served her purpose of Earth as your pet, and she completed her mission to make you happy.
*nods*
That's so true.
Here are a few things that might make accpeting it easier:
• Don't be afraid to cry- there's nothing wrong in that. Holding it all in is really, really hard, so just let it go. It'll be alot easier after.
• Celebrate your cat's life- instead of dwelling on he/she's gone, remeber what your cat did for you. Maybe you can grab a couple friends and go do something that is fun for all of you. Whether it be a moive, lunch somewhere, or just hanging out, your cat wouldn't want you to be sad, he/she would want you to do things you enjoy.
• Express your feelings somehow- if you like to draw, draw something involving your cat, how he/she helped you, your favorite moments with him/her, that kind of thing. If you like to compose music, create a song about him/her. Drawing, singing, making a collage, writing a poem, and making a mini-movie, are just a couple of way to honor and remember your cat.
• Talk to someone about it- I know I have trouble and don't take my own advice in this case, but talk to someone about it. Grab your mom, dad, or a friend- someone willing to listen- and just tell what's on your mind. For me it's really hard to tell people my problems but once I do it's so much better. Just open up to them.
Without death, we could never fully appreciate life to the fullest.
