Re: Sookie's Story


Thanks for your thoughts folks. She was a good age, the saddest thing is that we didn't have her from a younger age. I would have loved to know her as a kitten. She was so playful in old age that she must have been a blast as a kit!

But I'm relieved that her passing was so peaceful. I had worried terribly that I'd made a mistake in not euthanising at an earlier stage, but now I know it was the right decision. There was no suffering with her condition. Passing away comfortably and naturally at home surrounded by family and love was so much better than on the veterinary table. It was always so difficult to get blood out or a line in her veins that I knew it would have been very distressing for her to be euthanised.

Re: Sookie's Story


Having experienced a very traumatic euthanasia a little over two months ago with my old girl, I can't help agreeing with your decision.

That said, I'm so very sorry you've lost Sookie, it's always so very horrible when we have to part ways with our beloved cats.
