Help me understand why I need to put my cat down please
Vet wants to put my 19-year old cat Bamse down. Here are the reasons (which make sense ik we will put him down but my heart hurts): bad kidney values, left kidney hurts, arthritis, needs to get a tooth pulled but is too old, atrophy of muscles and hyperthyroidism.
Obviously he is unwell, and he will be put down. What makes me feel guilty and like I’m betraying him is that he is a happy cat (even the vet said this). He loves to eat food, purrs when pet, and likes to talk. He also has a strong will to live. I feel like a monster taking this away from him.
Why are we not supposed to respect his will to live?
