just to clarify, this was inspired by this http://www.tinyghosts.com/archive/tinyghosts072.html

The repetition of “she’d been through the worst already” makes me want to know what exactly it was. And the ending is normal-seeming enough – but you place just a few sentences throughout to make it seem not quite so. I am intrigued…

Loosing her kitty was the worst!

I have to look up the link you posted. This is a nice little story! Any plans to sequel?
