Wow, please accept my sympathy.

My wife and I just put down our ancient girl (over 20). She had mild dementia for several years, but remained good natured. Her health went down hill very quickly and it was time.

Just pray and do what would be in the cat’s best interest.

Isn’t it amazing how quickly they go downhill? My eldest, Kitty, died at home on 12/16/10.

We were together 19 years, 1 week and 2 days. It was devastating. I knew she was going. I took off work so we could spend the last couple of days together.

It was awful; however, I just could not bring myself to put her down. I knew her time was near and I told her it was okay to go now. Before that, I was begging her to stay and get better. She tried, she really did.
