That sucks if true, I would be pretty torn up if my dog died. That being said and I am not going to comment I know her head space but thats a LONG time to get over a pet death.
Yup she made that anouncment cause people kept asking for new content. Then she made a post where she mentioned the loss of her cat. Besides that she always was mentaly unstable. I think the death of her cat was the nail in the coffin regarding her OF. She wasnt really putting much effort into it in the first place
