we got some bad news on Punkin on Thursday, there was a lump. With his other health issues what we thought was another year or two dropped to months.
Yesterday we got the blood results. we're now looking at weeks, possibly days, and having to make some hard decisions
It hurts.
Hugs to you and your Lordship.
The worst and hardest news. You can't explain to them, and often not to yourself either. Grief sneaks up and bites you when you least expect it. Spoil Punkin rotten for the time he has left. And don't hesitate to do the best thing for him - which may not be the same as the best thing for you. Hugs to you and His Lordship and other cats.
So sorry.
Gentle hugs for you all.
Iām so sorry to hear that. Same thing happened to our kitty, and we found out very late so she only had a day. Make sure you spoil Punkin rotten, and take care of yourselves, too
Deepest sympathies. Had to do this twice in 6 months a while back. Fuck cancer.
I say this with all the kindness and love in the world: there is no hard decisions. You know in your heart what's best, and its gonna hurt like hell but you've got to do what's best for him. Its the final kindness we can share, and we should all be so lucky to be so loved that our friends and family cant bare to see us suffer.
I'm sure you already know this, I just know when I've been called on to do this in the past (Too many time) I would've given anything for someone to say this to me: You're doing the right thing.
I haven't regretted helping a little buddy. I have regretted not knowing and not doing something earlier. The guilt of that eats me up. ( poor allie š )
Hugs. It really is the hardest part of loving them.
