Had to put cat to sleep

Feel so sad. She had stopped eating and urinating and after various tests it was found she had growths in her liver and bladder. She was 14. It seems the kindest thing and I was with her at the end but I feel so guilty. No one else in the house seems that bothered either! I keep expecting to see her when I open the butter or under my feet on the stairs.

I'm so sorry. It's the kindest and hardest thing we can ever do for them.

I’m so sorry. Please don’t feel guilty. It was the kindest thing to do. You spared her the suffering that lay ahead.

Sadly, it won’t help with missing her. Only time helps with that.

Be kind to yourself.

Thanks everyone. She must have been in a lot of pain. Cats hide it so well!

So sorry for your loss op. Try to take comfort in the fact that you made the right decision and spared her prolonged suffering. I lost one of my kitties last week, he was not even 3 years old so I know how you feel. Flowers

So sorry for your loss, I have been through the same. You did the right thing.

Please don’t feel guilty (easy to say I know, I’ve felt guilty about each of my cats and dogs), you’ve done the kind, loving thing for your lovely girl. Be kind to yourself 🌈💔
