My baby girl was 17 yo, 95% blind, 95% deaf, dementia and incontinence had set in but she ate well, drank water, she had Cushings disease for the 8 years of her life, was on meds for it and was doing very good. When she wasn't sleeping I played with her, cuddled her, then one day she stopped eating, off to the vet we went, I did not have to make the decision you are faced with, her organs were breaking down. It was early in the morning I was called to come and say my last good byes, I had to put her down. I have had to put down several babies in my life time, it never gets easier this girl was with me the longest, I loved her deeply as she aged. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. If your baby is in pain you have to do what is best for him. Sight, hearing, even making where ever he goes to me is not a reason to let him go, I went through it for 2 years watching my girl lose her sight, her hearing, became confused because she would somehow get under the kitchen table and not be able to find her way out, so I removed all the chairs. Talk to your vet if you are not sure. But cuddle and love him for the time you do have him. I know your pain... (((hugs)))
