On the one hand, it seems a bit much for mourning a cat. Sadly for some people sitting there petting the cat while they wait for their bus was the best part of their day.
The world is full of desperately unhappy people and this warm purring kitty gave some of them a little joy.
Losing that can be devastating.

You read my mind. One never knows how often the simple act of petting a gentle cat (or dog) can be a bright spot in someone’s day. There may have been people down on their luck and enduring the loss of a loved one only to feel the tap of a paw on their leg, look down, and see the understanding face of a little critter.

I don't put animals on the same level as humans, but I feel sad when mine have passed on, and I feel sad when I hear about cruel things being done to any animal...especially a sweet pet.

You took the thoughts right out of my head.
She may have been the *one thing* many people had, to make the rest of their day bearable.

If not for my child, petting my cats would definitely be the best part of my day.
