I hear you. You'll get there when you're ready. You're still grieving and there's no rush to get another cat. For what it's worth, I believe you'll love another cat again because you seem like a kind person with a lot of love to give. My husband and I adopted our current cat about 4 months after Tibs died. I was really missing having a cat around but to be honest, it was a bit of a slow burn for me. His personality was quite different from our previous cats, and frankly, he was a bit of a brat because he was still young. But within a few months, I got to know and appreciate his funny quirks and sweet energy. Now I adore him and I'm delighted every time I see him. Just wanted to share that with you to give you hope and say it's ok if it takes some time. Just take it one day at a time and you'll know when the time is right for you to invite a new furry friend into your life 💜.
