My mother had a cat that lived to 22. I had to be the one to take her. Mom didn't drive. That poor cat was so sick. Blind and deaf. You could hit the floor and she would come to the feeling of it. Her name was Lovey.

I would hate to be the one to decide to put them down. I know sometimes it's for the best. Maybe I would say different if I would see them suffer terrible.

They say it's better to love and lose then never to love...I didn't know!

 

[ValerieJ]

Well, it's just a very good thing to love. But it is so darned hard sometimes.

I had a Golden Retriever, well three, but my first was getting so bad wirh pain that he couldn't even stoop over to go potty, he just stood there. That still wasn't the last straw for me. It was when he couldn't even walk beside me for three steps. Then I noticed his shoulders were popping out! He would just lay down. I finally said, ok buddy.

Yes, when I took the cat in, the vet picked her up and she just cried out. He said she was probably full of cancer. He could feel things around the outside of her body.

It's so hard. I'm so sorry Cynthis. Have had similar circumstance. Not good at all.

So sad...So sorry.
