Arriba - cat heaven is ace, as Miss Angry said. Tell your daughter how happy and pain free the cat will be there.

I'd be devestated if anything happened to my 2 mogs. One has to go the vet tomorrow for some teeth out, she's 10 and I worry about her coming round after the general anesthetic... Sad

Sad news.

My mutt's 13 and has been the only constant in my life for that time.

Moved 4 times, had three relationships, 3 jobs but my dog's always been there.

I know I'll breakdown when his time's up..........................

Sorry to hear this Arriba. I had 5 cats and a dog when I lived in Canada. There are now only 2 cats living over there. its very sad.   My dog "missy" below was lovely but had cancer. We did everything for her and the doctor like you said "we can do this but it may extend her life by a month" She would always be in pain and never be how she was. We took the difficult decision to put her down.

Its hard mate but remember the good times. Pets are very loving animals and it is very very hard to lose one who has brought a lot of joy to you. They are there for you when you need them.

Here are some pictures of my Dog beore she died and the card.

Aw im sorry to hear about your cat Sad  it must have been a very hard decision but like people have said she is no longer in pain and there is no point questioning whether she would have got better, you need to trust the vet was right. Im 17 and our cat Kizzy is 20 so has been here every day of my life, i cannot imgaine life without her, she is a member of the family! But just remember you gave her a good home and a good life, and still have all the fantastic memories, and although you have the pain of losing her, you and her had 15 fantastic years together, which she may not have gotten if you hadn't of had her. All the best.

cheers gazza and stfc11,nice words.
its hit my kids hardest as the cat had been there all of their lives up until now.my daughter has written a little note to the cat that i read when i returned from work last night. Crying i'm just wracked with the guilt that i chose to end its life rather than take the chance on her getting better.

its also made me realise that the euthanasia debate with humans is no cut and dried issue.if the death of a pet does this to someone, imagine what people with sick relatives go through?
sorry for another depressing post by the way!

It does raise the question, I have left instructions to my family that if I am ever on a machine or suffer brain damage I woudl rather not live.

Apparently, Senior Nurses have the authority wether to resucitate (sp?) or not now. Thats a good move.

I hate seeing people/animals suffer in pain. If I'm in pain and have limited chance of recovery I'd rather go off peacefully to ease the pain and suffering not just of myself but others also.

She died at 3pm this afternoon, came round after anesthetic but then relapsed  Crying the vet called in tears.

RIP Spook - at least I have no kids to break the news to
