After the loss of my cat im having difficulties getting a new cat

my cat ET was da apple of my eyes, only one dat I ever loved .. basically um an animal lover but my cat was more dan anything to me. it's been 8months dat he passed away he was 7.. n he got sick all of a sudden n died maybe out of kidney problem as he stopped having food n stopped peeing. here vets r not good at all for animal's treatment. I had been taking care of him till his last moment n when he died on my bed I can not sleep on dat side till now n always keep the dim light on really cant stand darkness,I miss him so much dat I keep looking for gim every cat dat i see on da road or picture, everytime I think of getting a new cat I dont know why I cant accept it or bring it home.. there had been 5 kittens so far I got da chance of adopting it but I cudnt! I dont know what's holding me back I know I need a cat but I feel shackled up everytime i try to get one!! is it normal? how i overcome this feeling?

    Get a new cat and tell him stories about your old cat and how great he was. It'll take less then a day for you to start loving the shit out of your new cat if its a kitten and you'll keep the memory of your old cat alive

    Try to let go, everything will be fine, maybe it's time to start fresh and try again!

    Well it's normal, whether is human or animal, when you lose it it will be hard to have that break In That relationship from them, it's normal it will just take time to get over them. Haha sorry it doesn't really make sense! It sounded better in my head but just take it one step at a time! GL!

    You can pick up a new cat almost anywhere. Just put some food out and call "Kitty! Kitty!"
