You'll never know for sure if this is what happened - just know that you did what was right and best for Buddy - and know that he is happy and healthy at The Bridge. Puddy will tell him all about you and what a wonderful cat Mommy you are. :love:

I have to agree. Humans fish deep for ways to assign blame in time of tragedy, so that we can tighten our circle of trust and perhaps avert the next one. But random horrors are often just that, random, and there never was a thing you could have done.

Love, Columbine

I am so sorry Mary.

RIP Buddy.:(

I am so very sorry! My vet ALWAYS recommends euthanasia with a positive test result. Trust me, once a kitty becomes symptomatic with feline leukemia, it's not pretty. Try to find comfort in knowing that you prevented him from ever knowing the suffering of his illness. He came inside, loved you and yours, then went to sleep! No pain, no suffering!

Oh Mary, I am just seeing this thread now and I am so saddened by the outcome. Buddy was such an adorable cat.
Please don't second guess what you think might have happened to him, as you know cats with Feline Leukemia, look very healthy and can live for years with this disease. Personally, I agree with the others that say you made the right choice for him.
