Would someone care to explain the process? I would like to know what to expect.
My roommate finally made the appointment for Sami, which is Thursday at 6pm.
She doesn't want to be there but I feel awful about Sami passing alone. I just don't know what exactly happens and I am kind of nervous. I am not even 100% sure I can watch even though it is sort of a relief on many levels.
For those who aren't aware, Sami is almost 19 years old and after spending almost a whole month at the vet in June/July, weighing 6 lbs and was at deaths door, she was brought home with a pancreatic enzyme powder that she was to get for the rest of her life. However, we have not found a successful way to get the proper dosage into her, (believe me, we tried every recommendation out there), so her progress has been slow. She is still very much underweight, her appetite is mediocre at best, her fur is falling out like crazy and she still has bouts of very foul smelling diarrhea which doesn't always end up in the litter box.
She just looks lifeless, miserable and wants to be left alone 99% of the time, hiding in the cat tent or under an end table. Her eyes say "it's time to let go".
So yes, what exactly happens? What can go wrong, if anything? Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
