"Animals have souls too just like humans. Today my mom died of cancer. We only found out she had cancer 6 days ago. I am still in shock and overwhelmed and consumed by grief. My mom was my best friend and I was her carer so most days were spent with my mom whether working for her or hanging out with her. I returned home earlier today just a few hours after having her die in my arms & immediately broke down. Its been a long time since I cried that hard and long. In the middle of my grief & tears my cat came up & began licking my forehead. Then he curled up beside my head and put his face next to mine while I continued to cry myself to sleep. When I awoke 2 hours later I found him lying on my chest with his face to mine looking at me and he began purring once he saw me open my eyes to wake up. As I sit at my bedside typing this reply he is still with me & sitting on my lap. My kitty showed me more comfort & support than the people who were around me right after my mom passed. If that is not love and if that is not lovable then I don’t know what is. Thank you & God bless."
