Struggling to know when to "let go" out of respect & decency. I don't see a "simple cat" per se...this picture is what he has been for me, EO's last 7 years & esp last 4 with wowzas of change...VK let go with dignity & I'm trying, really am trying. Good fats bad days & sometimes the sadness in his eyes is too much. I know death a lie & I'll join him again on an adventure. The struggle is I don't want to put him to sleep. Why can't he go to sleep & leave in his own accord? Feels like a excessive way to learn this process...
