Sorry for your loss SSkeptic. Ten years is about the half way point for kitties. If you like having a relationship with a different species I encourage you get another right away. It will never be the one you lost but it could very well be a whole other kind of wonderful.
Isn't it odd how people naturally anthropomorphize all kinds of things in regard to their pets. And yet a soul is just a step too far if you're a doctrine following believer. According to their lot, everything in the world is for or about humans. The rest looks nice and lots of it is useful to us, but every bit of it put there for a purpose by god-all-mighty. But god loves us best so we assume His purpose revolves around us of course. Christians just are not all that humble.
