This plays out a lot like social anxiety and depression:
The woman has separated herself from everyone else, but she still nurtures a spark of hope (the cat) that keeps her going. After a while she stops caring for hope as much, convincing herself more and more that she actually is separate, taking care of hope only on the surface. After a while of this treatment, hope runs out completely, and when she realizes that, it gives her a wake-up call to seek help (the boy).
The way I interpreted it before I read the description was that her son had died, and soon after so did she, but remained as a ghost, afraid to leave into the afterlife for fear of abandoning her cat.
I love her cat :3 He just wanted what was best for her, trying to coax her out into the world, until ultimately leaving to spur her on. I'm starting to tear up just thinking about it....
"Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?"
This is what I thought of when I saw this, I wouldn't be at all surprised if that song helped inspire this... especially looking at the title (: Anyway, beautiful animation and story <3
Why am I crying? :')

Beautiful animation. As someone who recently went through depression and agoraphobia herself, it really spoke to me.
