My cat died.

Sorry, I’m a lurker, don’t know if this belongs here. Do my best to stay away from liquor but I will drink a few beers every couple of days or so. I’ve been a lot better for a while. But my cat was run over yesterday. He wasn’t even a year old yet. He was the best cat I’ve ever had. He’d let my daughters put him in their play strollers and push him around, let them pick him up and just carry him wherever. I’ve called a few friends but they didn’t answer. I’ve never learned great coping mechanisms and really I think I’m looking for those. I’m just trying to not go back to drinking way too much. Thanks for any and all help and kindness.
