Posted on here a couple of days ago about what to feed my elderly 18 yr old cat. Sadly this morning I had to take her to the vets and make the heart breaking decision to put her to sleep. She went into chronic heart failure.
The vet said we could try and treat her but it most likely wouldn't be successful. Or take her home and she would take a couple of weeks to die. Or have her put to sleep at the surgery, which was what he recommended. It was a horrible decision and not the ending I wanted for her, it wasn't a particulary peaceful end as she was struggling for breath
I know she had a long happy life with us but just feel so sad today, I am very tearful and wish it could have been a better ending. Really I wanted her to go to sleep at home and not wake up but being a typical cat she did it the hard way!
Sorry for long post I just wanted to get it down.
