I just prefer for animals to die a natural death, unless of course they suffered a horrible injury. Today is the first day I suspect he may be in pain, but I can’t get any pain meds for him. He may not have the strength to put up a fight at the vets now, but he would still feel the trauma. He’s been clingy and sitting on my lap most of the day, and I got an eyedropper if he needs more water. I think he’d rather pass at his home with me. I may be wrong, and I thought about it today, but Lord please forgive me.

The vets said they would have to check him and weigh him so they could give him the right dose. They said it doesn’t matter if he’s dying. I guess that’s the law, but it doesn’t make any sense in this case.

The right times doesn’t make any sense, they are euthanizing him. What would be the downside to giving too much? Yeah, I suppose there are lots of laws that are illogical.

I just didn’t want you or the kitty to suffer too much. It’s nice that he’s on your lap and wanting attention. I know he feels your love and is comforted.

Keep us informed.

I just Realized you meant they needed the weight to get the right dosage for pain pills. That does make sense, Although is incredibly frustrating for you.
