I definitely believe that they come back to visit. When my 15 year old Peke died, for almost 10 days my big siamese would be sitting in my lap in the living room, and then all of a sudden he'd stand up with all the ears and tail at attention and he'd hop down and very slowly start walking and sniffing toward the spot where her bed always was! Then, he'd sniff some more, turn around and Rorw gently to me, and come back. She was there, in her usual spot I'm sure, just checking on us. We both missed her so much. I'm glad she'd visit. I'd talk to her and tell her we loved her missed her but would see her soon. It makes me cry still to think of it, but it was a good feeling too. She finally went over, and no more visits.
