I have put two pets down due to old age. One could not get up again because his kidney's were shutting down he was 17 yrs, the other
was 16 and he lost control of body functions. It was so very hard to
make that decison but you have to keep in mind how the animal might
be suffering in pain and you don't want that. I would not go to a vet
who would not allow me to hold or craddle my pet! I did both times
kissing them and comforting them. I would not have allowed them to be
alone. It was over in 10 sec. No suffering or pain. Only for me but it meant
my beloved pets were free of suffering. I hope you get the strength
you need for do what you feel is right.
If you really feel he is suffering it is your responsiblity to help him.
Knowing that you are is what will get you through it.
Bless you and your pet.
