Q5) Do cats grieve if their companion has died?

Ans : Cats certainly do grieve when someone they love dies. They tend to withdraw, sometimes to the point of death, if a loved person or cat dies. The signs are lethargy, loss of appetite, aimless pacing, change in sleep patterns, lack of interest in former favorites, and even self-mutihe surviving pet, because pets can understand and share it. You must divert your sad cat with toys, delicacies and lots of caressing. Music therapy is also considered to be helpful.
