Cleo was put to sleep this afternoon. It has been the hardest decision I have had to make in a long time.The last thing I wanted was for her to suffer.....Unfortunately the vet could not get the needle into a vein easily.....and my feisty little madame growled a bit. I am glad in a way that she still had that bit of fight left in her!!
Its horrible isn't it. I can only say the trite things about you making the right decisions and remembering the good times- all true but not a lot of help when it hurts so badly.
Those of us on here do have an idea of what you are going through
Oh pastafreak sweetheart , you are so kind and thoughtful and Cleo could not have had a more caring owner. That was indeed a very selfless and brave thing you did for her .
Bless you , I know how hard it is for you and you are in my thoughts . ( big hug ) xxx
Oh pastafreak my heart goes out to you love. Apart from giving her such a loving home its the kindest thing you could ever do for her and the bravest. Im thinking of you
Thankyou- all of you for your kind words. Here I am again-sitting here trying to type thru a fog of tears.Until yesterday she was still drinking, toddling around a bit and purring madly every time i cuddled her. I know she knew she was loved. xx
Oh love what a awful time for you, you will be heartbroken I know.Nothing I can say will make you feel better, you know you did your best and gave her dignity in the end and that is the main thing,and she was so loved.So sorry for you.g
I'm really sorry that Cleo has gone - pity she didn't bite the vet and gone out on a high!
I am sure that you are also relieved that all her suffering is over. It is horrible watching them, knowing that every day could be their last. You should look after yourself and eat chocolate all weekend.
I dread anything happening to my two - but there is every chance I might actually throttle one of them soon.
Oh-wolf...I always love your posts...you have a knack for relating the humour incat/pet ownership.Anything that makes us smile is to be teasured...and thankyou for your kind words xx Virg
