Hi Claire.....4 weeks is still early. Everyone is different on how long they grieve. I lost my two dachshunds 3 years ago and I still cry every once in awhile over them. I even call Remy by accident one of my dachshunds name (Hershey). My husband has done the same thing. We laugh when we do it because Remy does do things that Hershey did. We joke and say that Remy is Hershey reincarnated. I read all the stories on YT about furbabies that have passed and it brings back the memories of when my boys passed and I cry like a baby. I am a very sensitive person when it comes to people or animals being sick, abused or passing away. Just take your time grieving and within time it will get a lot better. I do believe she is still around you, having fun running around and playing.
