I'm really sorry for your loss. And a loss of a companion who is dear to you *is* a very real loss. My therapist is preparing me for my own by telling me not to try to short circuit the grief, or play it down, but to allow myself to grieve the loss it actually is.
Would you like to share some funny/sweet stories about your cat? I went to a pet loss seminar once and doing things like that really helped.
Oh, and check with your SPCA in your area. They might offer some, and it really does help to be with others who understand how you feel. I don't think I started to heal from the loss of a beloved dog until I went to one of those.
