if the cat fits ...

[tamaranth]

Vet called. Kidney failure, anaemia, high white blood cell count, possible cancer, maybe meningitis.

With extensive (and expensive) treatment, inc. 48 hours hospitalisation, she might last a few more months. But she could go at any time, and her quality of life is unlikely to improve very much.

I don't think I can put her (or me) through that. Final vet trip 10:30 tomorrow. Until then, quality time on sofa.

You are a good cat mama. Lots of hugs and sympathy from Sunny and me.

[lj_stowaway]

I am so very sorry. You've given her a good life and you're doing the kindest thing you can do now. Cold comfort at a time like this, but it's something to hang onto.

My thoughts will be with you through these next hours.

Poor little thing, I'm so sorry.

[surliminal.livejournal.com]

Oh god. Repeated sympathy/empathy.

[ajshepherd.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry to hear that, it's a terrible thing to have to do but better than prolonging her suffering.

I think that's the right decision. But so sad for you. Much love, and good quality time.

[sneerpout.livejournal.com]

Oh, honey. That's awful.

But yes - the treatment would be distressing and will not help her in the long run.

*Hugs* (to you and furry one)

Quality time indeed. Look after her -- and don't forget to look after yourself, too. Much sympathy ...

[asynje.livejournal.com]

Oh no.

*kram*

[adela-terrell.livejournal.com]

Poor Kitty, and Poor You, much sympathy H xx

[ramtops.livejournal.com]

So, so sorry. I'll be thinking of you both tomorrow morning.

God love you, both. I've had to do this too too many times, but it is best. My sympathy.

[pds-lit.livejournal.com]

Just went through this earlier in the year. I am thinking about you both.

[korintomichi]

So sorry to hear this. You're doing the right thing. Thinking of you.

[darth-tigger.livejournal.com]

Sad to hear this. Take care.

[frostfox.livejournal.com]

You are doing quite the right thing, just give her lots of hugs. If it was me, I'd do the same thing.

No doubt at all that this is the best course of action, but I'm so sorry that you've got to go through all this heartbreak again so soon.
You're both in my thoughts. xx

[tvillingar.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry for you.

[ivory-goddess.livejournal.com]

Oh hell. But you're doing the right thing for her, you know that.

Oh I'm so sorry for you both.

(but I'd suspect you are doing what's best)

[perlmonger.livejournal.com]

Love and hugs to you, Tanya, and very gentle cuddles to Shiva; as I wrote for Bada, helping them go when it's time (and being with them as they do) is the last gift we can give to these creatures who steal our hearts.

My thoughts will be with you tonight, tomorrow morning, and after.

[kekhmet.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry. *hugs* and *purrs* to you and Shiva from Theo and me.

[zoo-music-girl.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry.

*hugs*

[margotmetroland.livejournal.com]

Poor you, but it's the best thing for Shiva.

[eleyan.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry to hear this. But, as others have said, a peaceful end is the last thing we can offer, sometimes.

[birdsflying]

I'm sorry. That is how Eartha went and it's..still the best thing that can be done. I'll be thinking of you.

[annafdd.livejournal.com]

{hugs} Been there. {hugs}

[dalmeny]

So sorry.

[sbisson.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

Thinking of you.

[brisingamen.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, for Shiva and for you, but yes, you're doing the best thing for her. She's had a great life with you.

[pecos.livejournal.com]

My sympathies and my heart goes out to you. I know you'll make the right decision for her.
