There is something truly terrible about knowing that doing the right thing will hurt you so much. Saying goodbye is never easy, especially when the decision is yours. Cancer is the worst. Sending you my absolute best <3

Thank you, and thanks for the six stars. I lost Tasi several years ago and still find it difficult to talk or write about. It is hard to lose a loved one whether they be animal or human.
Hugs, and Merry Christmas.
Comment from jmdg1954
I've had to put three dogs to sleep over our forty-three years of marriage. I'm not ashamed to admit crying with each one.
They were our four legged children that we cared for as we did our own kids.
We still have three dogs at home with us, so we will still face that miserable day again, again and again!
Nicely presented...

Comment from Cass Carlton
My commiserations on the loss of Tasi.No matter how long ago this was, reliving the memory is enough to bring sadness and tears to the fore. I have experienced this event many times over 82 years and 19 cats, most of whom fell asleep with assistance from the vet, I found it does help if you try to see past that moment of separation to when she awakens in the presence of angels. She would feel so different, Youthful and strong with all her faculties restored, her coat shining and silky, her eyes bright and watchful, A beautiful creature made new
again. When the time comes and you meet again she will tell you herself how thankful she was of your decision,
cheers Cass

Comment from Dawn Munro
I have had the same experience, more than once, and I am haunted too -- my precious Prissy did not pass peacefully. I couldn't even give her that because she hated strangers poking and prodding her after all she had gone through years earlier with her bladder stones. I did manage to get the vet to come to our home, but it tormented her anyway... I doubt I will ever get the image out of my mind... She cried to me for help as they tried to give her a needle to make her sleepy. She ran, off the bed and into the bathroom, screaming for me...
I know she is with God now -- that is my only comfort -- and God is good all the time because I believe I was meant to read your tragic story today so that I could finally tell someone what we (Prissy and I) went through last January...
I am so sorry for your loss. (Six stars, if I had them -- outstanding writing.) ********************

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I understood well how you felt, Prettybluebirds. I so glad you
went back to her. Yes, Tasi was your 'baby'. You shared your story
well. The words flowed smoothly with great imagery, though
they were poignant. Even today, I miss all my kitties and one dog
that have crossed the bridge. I know you do too.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

Comment from Goodadvicechan
It is always hard to let life go. Be it an human person or a pet.
It is hard for the patient to undergo the pain. It is equally painful from the people around him.
I have gone through such pain when I lost my parents and my wife.
Thanks for sharing this one. L

Comment from Sarah Das Gupta
Movingly and sincerely written! The writer recounts that terrible moment when you have take a decision on a much loved pet's life. It can seem like a betrayal of trust!

Thank you for reading and commenting. It did seem like a betrayal of Tasi's trust. It was several years ago, but is still hard to write about.
Hugs, and Merry Christmas.

This is a lovely story although a sad one. Our pets are part of our family also. My thoughts are with you as you grieve for your cat. Thank you for sharing with us. I hope you find peace and joy in the holidays. Sarah

Thank you. This happened several years, although, it is still difficult to write about. Cats and dogs are just as much family as my human relations.
Hugs and Merry Christmas.
Comment from amahra
I somehow knew it was a pet from the beginning but was still surprised it was your cat. I know the feeling. My dog died nearly thirty years ago, and once in a while my eyes will well up. Great writing. Great story. Happy Holiday.
