Some people say that only dogs are loyal and love their owners. But if this story teaches us anything, it’s that cats love their owners just as deeply.
A terrible loss
A couple of weeks ago, a young man named Chris posted a photo of a cat attending a funeral.
He explained that his grandmother had passed away at age 90. The cat was in fact hers, and hadn’t seen her owner ever since she’d been admitted in the hospital a few weeks prior. Knowing their bond to be strong, the grandmother’s family decided to let the cat attend the funeral.
Saying goodbye
In the photo posted by Chris, the cat can be seen looking inside the casket, and realising that her beloved owner is inside. In a subsequent photo, the cat can be seen sitting on top of the casket and looking up to the sky, as if saying a silent final farewell to her beloved owner.

We are sure the lovely cat will be well taken care of by her owner’s family, and wish them all the best in this difficult time.
