Make a memory box
โWhen I first came home from the vets I thought it would be with my cat and she would be all better and healthy but the sad reality is it doesnโt always end that way. I headed home hoping the next day she would come with me but instead I returned with her soul in my heart, a card and her fur, The lovely memories of her I didnโt want to just throw away so I thought rather than hiding them I should display them. I put all the cards from my past companions along with some memories of her such as a little milk pot I got when I took her to the emergency vets, her favourite treats, her medication, her favourite food and her collar and I placed them all together to create an amazing memorial spot in my room so she and my other companions are cozy with me always ๐

It Is Okay to Cry
Crying is a normal way our body lets out sadness. Some people cry a lot and some people do not cry much at all. Both are okay.
