Animals just have a "way" that when we take time to notice is really something. I have this little yellow tom cat who does things a bit different than most cats. He gives me a swat on my leg and one type meow when he is hungry, has a certain meow when he wants out to poop (housebroke, no litterbox) and another type meow when he wants petted. I also have a female yellow lab who was a stray like the cat was. She has adopted the tom cat and those two are best buddies. When I had the dog fixed and she came home from the vet, The cat went over to her and rubbed on her and layed down next to her to keep her company. He knew she wasn't feeling well. After she was feeling better she would greet the cat everytime he came home from a prowling mission and he would be just as happy to see her. The dog has seen me pet the cat and has now started petting the cat herself. I have never seen anything like it. I have thought what will one of them do if the other one passes. A far as why they run off, I have thought about it for years and never came up with a good reason for it, but I am sure they have a good one that only they know. I knew a lady in her upper 80s whos family had an old farm horse when she was a kid. They all knew the horses days were numbered so her Dad went out and dug a hole to bury her in when she died. The next morning the horse was no where to be seen. Yep, she went over layed down and died in the hole. It was like she knew the hole was for her and she didn't want the family to have to bring her body over to it. I know your daughter is worried about her pet, but maybe tell her, "that the dog just wanted her to remember her as she was in better times and not see her like that". Only dogs know why "they go off somewhere" but I am sure they have a good reason they do it. It is hard to go through, but your daughter will be ok in time. Just remind her of the good times she had with her buddy.
