Heartbroken Cat Refuses To Leave Her Owners Grave For A Whole Year

Some believe animals have no feelings and feel no love, sadness, grief, or happiness like we do. I would say that even though they are physically different than us, they too feel emotions very close if not exactly as we do.

But some cases, like this dog miraculously showing up at his owners funeral, seem to show that they feel just as attachedto us as we do to them and grieve just like we do.

Many animals are amazingly obedient and dont like to leave their humans side for anything, and this trend can even continue after death.

This was the case for a poor Indonesian kitty who has been nuzzling, rolling around, and crying at her late owners gravesite for over a year.

Learn more about this heartbroken kitty below, who helps prove that animals feel pain, loss, and grief, just like we do.
