BenjiBoy Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 I have an old cat, a snowshoe female. She is blind as a bat. She has a leaking heart valve, needs laxatives daily.....and I love her. BUT, she cries all or most of the night and I am constantly getting out of bed to show the litter box, or the food. Should I bite the bullet and put her down.... I use Ladron and he said no need for that, yet. What say you? Fred Habacht Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggiemae Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 My heart goes out to you, Fred. I was in the same situation that you are in when my vet asked me, "Are you keeping Miss Pepper alive for your sake or for her sake?" One of the greatest gifts you can give your beloved pet is a dignified exit. "We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own live within a fragile circle." 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mexijims1 Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 Sorry to hear, Fred. However, I think you are making the right but hard decision. Also, glad you are taking her to Bernice, anyone but Ladron. You know what his name is in Spanish!. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenjiBoy Posted February 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 Yes, I know what his name means and I also know how he got that name in his families history....do you? Fred Habacht 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
