^^^ I agree. I initially went into therapy 2 years ago because I was grieving the deaths of my cats. We'd lived together all of their lives and losing them (several, over a period of a few years) had pushed me over the edge. I've lost plenty of people, too. I miss most of them, but the cats (and pet rats) deaths - that's a whole different kind of loss and grief. It needs to be respected as such.
