I have never done this before so I'm sorry if it's not done correctly. My boy Gus had to be put down today. He was at the vet to have his teeth checked because his mouth had been bleeding and a tooth fell out. He was a Russian Blue and was solid muscle. I named him after Cinderella's big mouse named Octavius that she called Gus. The doctor said he had Cancer in his mouth and it would not, of course, get better an could not be cured. He said he was in silent pain but I knew he was in terrible pain. He had a heart murmur so it was sketchy giving him anesthesia. Had to take him to a specialist to confirm we could do it. We've had him since 2002 and he was a joy, as the other 4 cats have been. I really hate this part of having a pet but I would never give up any of the cat and dogs I have ever had. They have all made my life rewarding and wonderful. Even better than any human. I am so sorry this is long but it has been therapeutic for me. Thank you for being here for me.

Oh, I am so sorry! You did the right thing, but I know how it hurts. Bless you and your family for losing a faithful, beautiful, true loving friend.

Please, there is no need to apologize for your broken heart. We all pretty much understand the pain and at one time or another we all need a shoulder to cry on. Sending a hug for you and prayers for both of you. God bless.

I am so sorry for your loss. A loss of one of our buddies is so hard. I offer you comfort.
It never gets easier except for we have a choice to help them.
I am glad you came here and know that we are here for you and that we understand.
It is so nice to know we have a place to come to where the people are supportive to the fact that our pets are very important to us. You will see Gus again.

Oh I am so so sorry for the loss of your beloved Gus. I've lost a few kitties and feel your pain. IMO now he's in animal heaven, well and happy, and remembers all the love you gave him.
