Fi, reading your sad news restores my faith in human nature regarding what you did for Angel. Some years ago when one of our late cats was very ill, we took him to the vets where we saw 2 ladies bring in an obviously very sick cat. Its nose was bleeding as it had nasal cancer, it was mewing pitifully, and guess what - the vet could do nothing, and it had to be taken back home, to suffer even more. Why? Because its owner, who was too cowardly to bring him in herself, 'loved him too much' to have him put to sleep by the vet. We witnessed all this in the waiting room. The vet, although calm, was clearly angry at this stupid woman and was powerless in law to do anything, apart from 'recommend euthanasia'. He rang her up, but again, she refused to end her cats suffering. So be heartened by what you did for her; you showed how much you loved her by doing this. By way of feline therapy, our Chloe, Midge, Pepper, Sooty and Topsy send hugs and purrs your way. With love and hugs, Glenys x |
