I am so sorry you are having to go through this, I am in the same with my peanut, but for now he is not in pain, I also had to make the discission on my Tucker 4 years ago with LS, but he was in so much pain, that it did make it easier, cause I knew it was the right thing to do, I loved him so much, my heart goes out to you, but if he is in pain it is the most love you can show them by doing it, its hard, I will not lie to you, but just remember all the good times you have had with him, big hugs to you and I will pray for you.

SANDYSAND · 03-26-2008, 02:17 PM

How awful! I feel so sorry for you and your sweet one. My prayers are with you and him

I will find the strength to take him tomorrow. I really have no choice.

My heart is aching for you

I pray for you to have strength to do what you must do and sending warm healing thoughts your way. I will be thinking of you.

I am so sorry you have to make the most difficult decision.
I am almost crying here at my office. (plz don't tell my boss!!)
I pray for you for the strength and hope you will find peace within you.
You will make the right decision for your baby.
I just don't know how to comfort you but can only pray for you.

yorkiemalt · 03-26-2008, 02:54 PM

I am so sorry you're faced with this difficult decision. I've found it helpful to really focus on the quality of life they have at this very moment and then to realize how much they're loved. It's almost like your last gift to them. A peaceful death surrounded by those that loved him.

ChelseaBaby · 03-26-2008, 03:20 PM

I know you are all right... And as much as it hurts, I must put my own feelings aside.
He is my special boy. I saved him from a pet store (before i knew where those puppies came from). My 11 yr old yorkie had just died and I was absolutely devastated. I went into the pet store and he chose me! he was completely irresistible and so darn cute. I had to buy him. He has been my little boy since and I will miss him more than words can say

Sunnie · 03-26-2008, 03:24 PM

Oh my dear, I am in tears for you. I had to make this decision a few years back with my Ginger (my God, it has been SEVEN years!) and it still brings me to tears to think about it. She was 15 years old and my very best friend. She got me thru a VERY painful divorce and kept me going when I didn't ever want to wake up again. I knew if she loved me that much, I had to love her just as much and let her go. I saw it in her eyes as she struggled to breathe and knew I had to help her be free from pain. Even as she gasped at every breathe, she was trying to kiss me. Where can anyone ever find a love like that? You will KNOW.... and your baby will know how much you loved him. Hugs

Thank you all for your support. I thought you might like to see a picture of Rocky this past halloween. Unlike Chelsea, he loved to show off his bumble bee costume.

Patti · 03-26-2008, 05:59 PM

Rocky is so cute, I know your heart is breaking right now. You are in my prayers.

Ashley V · 03-26-2008, 06:59 PM

I'm sorry you're going through this. It's a hard decision to make. We're going through the same thing with my cat. She's 17 and been around me since I was 3 years old. I spent most of the night last night crying. It's really hard, but if he's suffering, it's the right thing to do. Give him lots of TLC, let him eat his favorite table scraps, and do all of his favorite things with him. He'll let you know when he's ready and even though it will be hard for you now, it will get better with time.

IluvDAXTER · 03-26-2008, 07:34 PM

I am so sorry! There is nothing I can say to make it any easier. I had my persian cat put down in Dec. and another cat put down today. I just want you to know I feel your heartache and I know how difficult it is. The one thing that has helped me get through is knowing that they are no longer suffering! Our babies are so precious to us and have brought us so much joy in their lifetimes. I know you are a good mommy and they know it too! You are in my prayers!!!!

CricketBaby · 03-26-2008, 07:50 PM

Bless your heart! I wish there was something I could say to make it better but I am sure your baby has been loved and had a wonderful life because of you.

MyFairLacy · 03-26-2008, 08:04 PM

i'm so sorry

I can't imagine how hard it is to have to make that decision. I know we all wil have to face that one day unfortunately. Our babies just aren't here long enough

Hugs to you
