Summarize this article:

Rituals, like a funeral, can be helpful in coping with the death of a cat. For example, you could hold a small memorial service with close family members and bury your cat’s remains. This will allow you and your family to openly express your feelings regarding the loss of your pet cat. You will also be able to say your last goodbyes to your cat. Try and schedule a time with your family and maybe friends when they are available to hold a funeral for your cat. After your cat dies, it can be therapeutic to look back at photographs from throughout your cat’s life. This is a nice way to remember your relationship with your cat and will bring back some positive memories. This will also help you to be able to focus on the good times with your cat, instead of the bad times. You may want to organize some of these photos into a scrapbook or memory box. This way you will be able to look through the book whenever you need and can easily reminisce about your cat. Framing pictures of your cat and hanging them around your house might also be a good idea, so that every time you glance at one of the pictures, it will remind you of your cat. However, this may not work for some people because they might get sad when they look at a picture. It depends on what you prefer. It is also possible to create some sort of memorial for your cat. For example, you could plant a tree in your backyard to memorialize and celebrate your cat’s life. Place a small marker near the tree and mention that the tree is dedicated to your cat. Alternatively, you could donate money to a local animal shelter or sponsor an animal at your local zoo. You might also want to consider volunteering at your local shelter. That way, you will be able to spend time with the animals which can make you feel better.
Hold a funeral for your cat. Look at pictures. Create a memorial for your cat.
