Re: When is the End? The Hardest Decision
It's great you contacted your vet. My syrian girl went like this over a period of time, falling over, eating and drinking less- i just think of it as a little old lady in an old peoples home. She was on pain meds and I did everything I could to make her comfortable which sounds like what you have done.
In her last week I kept thinking she was just going to go in her sleep, she was such a fighter and not making it easy on herself. But, when her breathing got bad, that's when I took her to the vets to help her on her way and be put to sleep. It was the right call as she was staring to get fluid in her lungs, so not a peaceful way to die.
I think you will know when/if he needs a helping hand.
