I'm so very sorry. :(
Cuddle and comfort him as much as you can. When you have to take the decision, know that he will be thankful that you relieve him of his pain. He has had a good and long life with you and will always be in your heart.Quote:
There is no easy answer and the most painful one needs to be done. I know you don't want to say goodbye but you don't want Fluffy to suffer, either. Believe me, I know how hard it is.
Big (((((hugs)))))
Gentle hugs and prayers going out your way. I've been in your position and it's the hardest decision to make. You WILL know when it's time. It sounds like it's close. Be gentle with yourself. I still miss my Goldie and remember those final moments before she went over the bridge. {{{{{{{{{Fluffy}}}}}}}}Quote:

Hugs and prayers. Most of us have been there. We understand. It still hurts.
I've been in your shoes, and had to make this decision, moer times than I care to recall. It does not get easier, you do NOT get used to it, so don't think that you are starting down a path that will be easier another time.
Fluffy has had a wonderful life with you, and you with him. Continue to show him the love, care and concern that you always have given.
Bunny, I am so sorry. :(
Unfortunately I, too, know exactly what you're going through, and it most definitely is not easy.
All I can say is my thoughts and prayers are with both of you at this difficult time. {{{hugs}}}
One year ago today I had to walk this same path and let me tell you it is the most difficult path there is.
You will cry, beat yourself up and second guess everthing, but in your heart of hearts you will know that Fluffy is whole again and at the Bridge waiting for you when your time to go comes around.
I will send songs and prayers for a peaceful passing for Fluffy, and for blessings of comfort and peace to befall on you during your time of grief.
You are loved by all here, and we are here for you.....

Bunny? How are you??
Around noon today, Fluffy crossed over the Bridge.
We took him in and everyone at the vet's office had tears in their eyes. They all came in the room at different times, said their good-byes to Fluffy and gave us both a hug, then Dr. Bennett came in. At that point Tim had to step out of the room (he has this thing about needles) and before she proceeded she asked if she could say a prayer over him - which was very nice. He was in my arms the entire time.
In a strange sort of way I am sitting here crying like a baby (just like I did all week) but in the same sense I feel better. I never thought I could do what I just did, but I new in my heart I had to be there for him, right up to the very end.
A very big thank you goes out to each and every one here for comforting us at this difficult time - we really do appreciate it!
And yes, Gary, the pet Angels are now with my dear Fluffy. :)
Thank you!
Our deepest sympathies to you and your Husband, We wish you peace and healing.

It is such a hard thing to do, but deep in our hearts we know it was for the best. I feel for you! Your baby is having a blast at the great big Cat scratcher at the Rainbow Bridge! RIP Fluffy!
I'm so sorry for your pain and sorrow. You were obviously a very kind and caring pet owner (or are we owned?). I recently had to make the hard decision to put my beloved pet to sleep, and it broke my heart. I know, as you do, that it was for the best, but that doesn't make the tears stop.
Thinking of you.
Bunny, my thoughts go out to you and Tim. Fluffy had a long and very happy life with you. He is now at a place where there is no age and no pain.
I am so glad that I knew your big boy. I'll always remember him as a friendly lion under the cats.
