I put two cats (brothers) down. Those two boys were the light of my wife's and my lives. Having a traveling vet come over and put them down was the worst day of my life. Bar None. I am grateful I was able to be there but damn it sucked  | |||

The hardest, worst part of having pets. No doubt about it. It rips a part of your heart and soul out. Yet, I long for another dog after losing Candy last January. As of now I am unable to get the wife to agree to finding another hunting dog. We both have been unable to wipe her last nose art off the sliding glass door. I hope I see all my beloved pets on the other side. "Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP! | |||

Wait, what? |
Every pet we’ve had leave us has been surrounded by the family. I couldn’t imagine EVER not being there with family when they pass. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

| Woke up today.. Great day! |
This! Had dogs and cats my whole life. Only once was it suggested they take him out back to do the deed. I said over my dead body. I have sobbed like a child for every pet I’ve put down. They are so much more than pets; they are full fledged family members. They give so much during their lives it is the LEAST I can do to be with them. | |||

My GF is a Cat Lady, hopefully now in remission as we only have one, but honest-to-god I can't count all the cats we have had over the years. It's at least 20, and I was there for each of them when they crossed over. Little Bella, the black cat I posted on the first page, got sick one day, I took her to the Vet who said, "yeah, all animals occasionally pass bloody black stool, don't worry about it", but a couple hours after they closed for the day she collapsed in agony. The closest 24-hour vet was over 40 miles away, so I laid on the floor with her trying to comfort her until she died at 6:15 the next morning. We had some pain meds that I gave her, but they didn't help much. All I could do was pet her, talk to her, and wipe up her bloody diarrhea. I don't post here when these things happen, because it's too painful. -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||
