I am so sorry, you are in my thoughts and prayers

myteddybear · 10-20-2007, 10:33 AM

Oh honey, I am so sorry.

Just a thought but when we had to put our shelty to sleep I decided then that if we ever had to do it again that I would have to find a vet that would come to our house and do it. That way they can go peacefully in thier own home without the stress they feel when at the vets. It should be peaceful for them. If he isn't in any pain you might even just let him stay home until his time comes.

Sending hugs and prayers for you both right now.

I think i may go have him put to sleep today I just am so depressed. I love him dearly and i don't want him to suffer anymore. The vet says he isn't in pain but he is just acting so bizzar he is not himself. I thought for sure he was gonna die last night but he made it through but he is acting very strange today i just knoe it is near. I don't know if i should let him pass here in his home where he is comfortable on his own or to take him in where he will be stressed out right before he dies. It's so hard to make this desicion

I really want to thank all of you for your support it means more than you will ever know to me.

I am sooo very sorry to hear this..what a tough decision..I guess if you are wanting an opinion..mine would be that if he isnt in pain then let him pass at home..poor baby...again I am so very sorry!!

Oh Amber, my prayers are with you. What a sad story, and tough decision to make.
I wish you did not have to go through this ....

I am so sorry, I would bring him home also and let him go in famuliar surroundings.

mistyinca · 10-20-2007, 11:56 AM

I'm so sorry to hear this Amber.

That is a decision you'll have to make based on how much you feel he is suffering...

AngelWorks · 10-20-2007, 12:20 PM

So sorry.

Izzy Princess · 10-20-2007, 12:27 PM

Oh Amber I'm so sorry to hear that your poor baby is so sick. I have 3 kitties and one is 14 and we just take each grateful day that she here with us. I have one that is 11 and one 7.

I hope that they all go in their sleep at home but I don't want them to be in pain either. Girl, I have no idea on what to tell you but you follow your heart and it will be the right thing.

Yorkie3 · 10-20-2007, 01:30 PM

Amber...I'm holding you in my heart and prayer during this difficult time.

Amber_lv · 10-20-2007, 01:36 PM

I had hope that he was doing better earlier i got him to eat a piece of a vienna hot dog but oly a bite. but i just went to check on him and he looks so bad

I am waiting for the vet to call me i think i may take him in to be put to sleep i don't know what he is holding on for i have made my peace and have told him it's ok he can let go but he seems to be waiting for something and i don't know what? When i went up ther he just kept meowing and i feel thta even though the vet said he wasn't in pain that hey may be or he is very uncomfortable

I feel just awful. thanks again everyone you have been my rocks.

I am so sorry. My best feline friend of 17 years died quietly at home in my arms. If your baby is not in pain, consider letting baby go in peace surrounded by love and familiarity, rather than accompanied by strangers in a vet office.

zoeybear · 10-20-2007, 01:39 PM

I had to put a cat to sleep once. She was very old and went down hill really fast. The vet let me hold her when he gave her the shot so she wouldn't be scared. It is very fast. I feel so bad for you. I wish there was something I could say to ease your pain.

Tink's Mom · 10-20-2007, 01:49 PM

Amber, I'm so sorry to hear that it is cancer. I know your poor heart is breaking. You do what you think is best for your little pal. I still miss my kitties from many years ago. They are good little friends.

Amber_lv · 10-20-2007, 01:49 PM

I would really Appreciate it if everyone would say a prayer for him to go so he doesn't suffer. Please Lord take him now and take him swiftly he has been a good friend and great conpanion to us i can not bare this anylonger and he should't have to either. We have all said our goodbye to him. If he does not go within the next hour i will take him to be put to sleep i just pray he can go on his own without any more stress.
