Pet Euthanasia - De-Brief *Distressing, well to me*

[Chrispe]

Hugs ladybird,

Sorry for the loss of your precious companion
From what you described I believe you did the right thing. You didn't want her to suffer, to have any more pain, you want her to have peace and I believe she would want the same for you, for you to be at peace. You saved her from pain and suffering.

I've said goodbye to a few pets. It's never easy.

RIP Stolli

Oh Ladybird I am so sorry for your loss. I have tears rolling down my face and want to send you lots of hugs.
I used to be a vet nurse and have been with many owners in the same situation. It is very very common to have feelings on top of the grief like guilt or regret, and to wonder whether you should have left them longer or given them another chance. Unfortunately our pets can't tell us what they want or need and we have to make those difficult decisions for them. From reading about her condition, I think you made the choice that was right for her, even though it was so painful. Whenever I have had to put my own pets down I have always questioned my decision, and it was never easy before or after. I think you did the right thing and she knew you were there at the end and that she was loved.
