    Sedating a cat before taking her to vet for euthanasia.

    Thank you all and yes my Munchkin was given Valium for a urinary issue and went crazy.  I had to hold him for 4 hours cause he was running panting and truly acting crazy.  When I called the vet he said that some cats react this way. The waiting is so hard, I look at her laying peacefully and I...

    Sedating a cat before taking her to vet for euthanasia.

    I am sorry that it was so horrible, I have a really bad feeling about tomorrow.  I guess I just don't want her to know what is happening. Thank you for responding.

    Sedating a cat before taking her to vet for euthanasia.

    This is a depressing sad question, I am sure it has been asked before..  I have a 17+ year old cat that has gone into congestive heart failure, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, kidney failure.  She has had hyper thyroid and other issues for some time. There is no cure for anything and the medication...

    Hyperthyroid 17 year old not doing well - the last of my senior cats.

    The vet told me that as the thyroid cleared up that other things that were masked will appear.  Last blood test her kidneys looked okay, but that was in December.  The house I am trying to rent will allow some pets but we have 4 dogs and 7 cats which we bought and raised together.  So it is...

    Hyperthyroid 17 year old not doing well - the last of my senior cats.

    Skye is 17, she is the last of my senior cats.  She was diagnosed with hyperthyroid and treated with medication via cream in her ear.  That helped but sent her in the other direction and she wouldn't eat.  So she is off the medication, has been for a while.  We tried the thyroid food and she...

    Calicivirus with ulcers. Will not eat, how often to syringe feed..

    My 4 year old cat Tini started drooling very heavily and I took her to the emergency vet.  After ruling out chemical burns and electricity the diagnosis was Calicivirus and she has ulcers on her tounge.  They gave her pain medicine, something to coat the ulcers and subq fluids. I rescued a...

    First thing is I would like to say how sorry I am that you all, anyone, has felt this grief that I am feeling.  You feel like nobody could love their pets as much as you do, but they do, you all do, and that is a wonderful thing to know that there is so much love out there.  Secondly, thank you...

    I lost my beautiful 17 1/2 year old baby today.

    I miss him so badly, I see him around the corner, but the worst is that he always drank out of the sink so for 15 years I left the water trickling, I couldn't turn it off  and had to ask my boyfriend to do it.  I keep forgetting and it is habit to leave the water on.  It breaks my heart that he...

    I lost my beautiful 17 1/2 year old baby today.

    My heart is broken and my soul is crushed.  My boy, Munchkin, developed acute kidney failure.  He was not improving on antibiotics and fluids and had quite urinating.  I made the decision to let him pass this morning. This was the worst euthanasia I have ever experienced.  When the vet gave him...
