My poor baby had a colon tumor found in January, I brought her to the oncologist and she was on prednisolone to hopefully slow tumor growth. At the start of February she was constipated so I brought her to the emergency, she had an enema and was all good sent home, they asked me to consider euthanasia bc they said it would only get worse, but selfishly I never did bc she was acting so normal and eating. Two weeks later I brought her back bc she was trying to pee but couldn't do much and I noticed a bit of blood I suspected she had a uti and was hoping they could help. She stayed overnight on iv and they said she was constipated again. The next day the vet urged me to put her to sleep for her own good. But selfishly again I didn't because I wanted to at least go to the next oncology appt. I took her home and ended up cancelling the oncology appt (which was 4 days later) bc it's rly far away and I thought the trip would be uncomfortable for her since she was still constipated from the emergency. Delusionally I was hoping with some stool softener she would be able to relieve herself and then i could take her to the oncologist. A day from two weeks since I brought her to the emergency, she went to the litter and was trying to poo and slowly fell sideways, she was kind of grunting and I felt so guilty I was thinking maybe I should put her to sleep, but right then and there she put herself to sleep and I feel so bad because she died in pain instead of peacefully because my own selfishness. I have turned this post into a therapy session I'm sorry. But I hope you guys can pray for my baby to have safe travels to the rainbow bridge, here is a photo of her a few days before she passed, exploring the garden <333
