Please don"t assume I am abusing or neglecting my beloved cat. She is 19 yrs and 3mos old and just became ill a week ago today. It is just her time. I have NEVER had to make this decision before and would rather her stay here in my arms until she goes. We don't euthenize our parents or grandparents when they are in their last days, why is it that you are scorned by others if you say you let your pet die at home when it was THEIR time to go?
Ultimately, if I had ONE wish, it would be that my pets could answer one question I have for them once in their lifetime and I could pick what day to ask. Today would be that day for her and it would be, "do you want me to help you go?"
I DO NOT want to be selfish and I DO NOT want her to suffer. But she watches me, just lays and stares at me me everywhere I move. Is she trying to tell me? I have a decision to make SOON! Does anyone have the answer for me?
