My thoughts are with you all at this emotional time
BeauandShan I understand. You do know when the time is right for them. They tell us when they're ready. I can't explain it either. I think it's in their eyes, the way they look at us but they do let us know.

I should have put my last girl to rest a day sooner. I knew she was terminally ill but I expected her pain would be gradual. She showed me that night her time had come. I phoned the vet early the next morning to come to the house to put her to sleep. I gave her strong pain relief and sedated her to spare her pain until the vet arrived. I'd sooner be a day early than a day late.

I watch Sophie very carefully for signs of pain and so far she is doing well. I don't want to be a day late ever again.
