I'm so, so sorry. It's a horrible situation, but please take comfort from the fact that whatever demons were driving your cousin, he's now at peace. I'm also from a Catholic family, so I can imagine how things are for you right now. I am seriously lapsed but I have never believed that taking your life is a mortal sin. A loving God would love your cousin unconditionally and that's what you have to keep in mind no matter what other family members might say.
Drugs are the fucking devil. Your cousin was a different person on them and the strength it takes to quit is unimaginable when you are also struggling with other things too. His plate was simply too full.
I'm so glad you took in his dog. I'm sure he will bring you great comfort. Much love to you.
