How long do cats grieve over their owners death?

Answer 1

few months

Answer 2

If they are fortunate enough to get a new home where they are well cared for and given the attention that they need for the first few weeks in a new home, once they realise they are safe with their new owners and can feel secure in their new environment they should be ok, they may be a little depressed at first especially if they were with their owner for a very long time but only time can help and if they are happy in their new home they will adjust.

Answer 3

I don't know if it's possible to put a timescale on grief. I guess it will depend upon the personality of the individual cat and how closely it was bonded with it's owner.

Such a major change in a cat's lifestyle, can be a major source of distress to them, to the point of making them ill. So if you know of a cat that recently lost their owner, keep an eye on them. The web site below gives really helpful advice on cats and how they display their grief.
