Its because the cat was actually a known, loved member of his 'family' that he shared a part of his life with.
A movie star is just someone seen on the screen or in the headlines, people posting RIP in those cases had no true bond or connection with them. Thats why the former upsets me and the latter doesnt.
(note im not saying it isnt sad or important, it just does not have the same impact on the posters life. not even close)
