This is something that I'm pretty much also coping with. But in the same token, It's opened up a big therapeutic conversation with my son about it. So while it might be painful, it might also help just a bit.
Losing a loyal pet is one of the hardest things. I'm sorry for your loss. Perhaps you can recreate your companion in game. It might help, if even a little?

I may make a digital version of my sweet Charlie cat when I can afford the game.
Hugs!!!
