Took her to the vet this morning, and they took her in the back & put a catheter in her arm..... I held her in a towel while they injected her.... As soon as they finished the injection....she became limp & the breath left her body..... I closed her eyes.....
She was always a Lady -- regal in her bearing and demeanor.... I couldn't let her continue suffering without dignity...
I am so sorry to hear that, it is strange, people dont realise how pets really do grow on u and become a very very big part of your life, and when their gone, they leave a gap/void in your heart.

For anyone who has had to do this -- do I toss her cat bed?? I have others, but since it has her scent & all, do I toss it?? I don't want the other 2 cats to be upset or freaked out by it....
Damn Jen. I feel for you. All of our animals lasted for several years and my parents always handled that. I dread it w/ my kitty and hope I can deal with it when the time comes. Its sad but inevitable and the best you can do is what you've done.
ah shit i'm sitting here crying at work.
Well, lots of love & lots of memories. Those both stay w/ u forever.
Damn Jens..that must have been a tough deal to cope with. How did you drive home. I hope all goes well. When a cat dies that has been with you for awhile, then part of you dies. THAT SUX

yes, I think catz have a 6th sense and know what is going on. I once had a cat that was a nightmare. He was put to sleep. But the whole way to the vet on hiss last day, he behaved and purred. When the serum was injected, the cat had a smile. REST IN PEACE BALLY
Awwww, I am sorry to hear about your loss. I know how attached you were to your kitty. You did the right thing and now she is freee of all pain in kitty heaven... RIP madonna
