He is a lovely kitty! I adore the senior feline!

I've never felt any guilt about the actual act of euthansia, but I've always been completely sure that there were no other options and it was the right thing to do. I've felt guilt about all sorts of other things after the fact, but never that final decision. I'd suggest that you felt guilty last time because you knew it wasn't time yet.
