On: Cats appear to grieve death of fellow pets – even ...

[donatj]

Oh, I would absolutely believe it.

We were alerted our one cat had died suddenly in the bathtub to the sound of our other cat howling outside the bathroom door. The surviving cat then acted really strange for the next week or so.

this reads a little bit like your cat drowned, is that the case?

[Jtsummers → g96alqdm0x]

Probably not drowned. Cats, when sick, tend to find isolated places, probably cooler, where they will lay down. Tubs seem to be a common place for cats to go to near the end.

Nope, not drowned. He had just died laying in our bathtub.

It was a place he liked to lay normally.
