((Ali)) I'm so sorry to hear about your little friend. It's so hard to face these kinds of things and at the age of 58, I've had to put down quite a few pets. One as recently as last year.

Mine was kind of the same thing except my Sweetie Pie, a cat, had an intestinal tumor that spread and she was really sick. I made a spur of the moment decision, at the vet's, to have her put down after the vet told me she was suffering. It was so very hard. And she was a young cat.

I don't know what to tell you about your own. Do you have a university vet school there nearby?

I just don't know what I would do so I'm of no help for you in making a decision. It is sad that we outlive our pets, and the older you get the more pets you outlive.

Hugs and love to you for whatever you decide.
