Max

[carole]

Slick since you have asked i will respond, although my opinion might be somewhat controversial here, however that is what it is my opinion and it is up to you as your pet's owner to make the choices for Max.

Personally i think there comes a time where you just have to draw the line, and think of what is best for Max, if something is worth trying and it will not cause him any side effects or pain, then i would go with it, other than that,I would just keep him comfortable,because as i see it,what is happening is just life and the effects of old age,there does come a time where you just have to let nature take it's course, and luckily for pets we are able to give them peace when it is needed.

I think clutching at straws is normal, but as long as it is not at Max's expense and you feel ok with it.

Again only YOU and YOU alone can make those decisions on Max's behalf, i wish you well,and do whatever gives you peace of mind, just remember no matter how hard it is to let go, we just have to for the sake of our kitties comfort,in other words we have to put our wishes last, and their's first, no matter how much we want them to continue to be with us. I think Max will let you know when he has had enough.

Thinking of you both and hoping you can come to a decision that you feel is right for you both.

I totally agree with Carole. Only you and you alone can make the decisions for Max and I'll support whatever you decide 100%. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent Max's way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

You and Max are still in my prayers. I think that if you have had a good experience with the other vet, then of course you should get a 2nd opinion. What can it hurt? Don't doubt your instincts. If you think you should case conference when it comes to Max, go ahead and do it!

Lots of hugs!

Mornin' Sunshine! Just wondering how you and Max are doing this morning. A little better, I hope. I remember when I was going through your experience w/my Puddy, I took a couple of days off from PT b/c I felt overwhelmed and although my friends were only trying to help, so much info just added to that feeling, especially when nothing seemed to work anyhow. I hope that you and Max are having one of your good days together. (((HUGS)))
