Who’s struggling?

I understand that Sar - time will come when you have less struggles - keep planning ahead and I hope you will get your own home one day soon 🥰
 
I'm struggling a bit at the moment,my 12 years? (I'm not sure if her exact age)cat has had issues for a while,my local vets thought it was to do with an inflammation in her mouth,they did an x ray and something showed up on it.I wasn't getting proper answers though when I saw different vets at this practice so got her details transferred to the cat and rabbit clinic and Tuesday I called in sick to work so I could get daisy seen as she'd hardly eaten for 5 days.I got her seen and I saw a very lovely vet and a trainee vet who was lovely too.This vet said she could feel a mass after examining her and booked her in for an ultrasound for next Tuesday but daisy really isn't doing so well,didn't eat anything at all yesterday so I was crying and had puffy eyes ready for a day at work.She had a tiny bit of food today but obviously not what she needs and she's wobbly on her legs and has peed on my bed,not her fault,she obviously doesn't feel well enough to go outside.I've got it in my head she's gonna have to be PTS.

Sending you hugs Gemma. ❤️
 
My cat isn't doing so well and after a long think,I've asked my friend to ring the vets to have her PTS either Thursday or Friday.I'm so lucky I have him cos I can't do it myself.I had her in for an ultrasound last Tuesday and a sample was taken and sent off of the mass that the vet felt and it is cancer.I suspected that anyway but it doesn't make it any easier having to make the decision to PTS.
 
I'm sorry Gem.
It sounds like you are doing the right thing by her although I know how hard it is. I am pleased you have a good friend to help you.
 
I’m sorry to hear that - it’s good to you have a friend to help - it’s so hard to do on your own
Your love and devotion for Daisy shines thru
Sending you a hug
 
My friend called vets 4 pets and they're fully booked tomorrow so daisys booked in for Friday at half 3.I told my friend the way she is,that's too long away so I've asked him to ring my local other vets tomorrow morning who were seeing her until I got her details transferred to the cat and rabbit clinic.They said they wouldn't see her again as I had her details transferred but for PTS I hope they will see her.Was already crying at work today and I'm sure it'll be more tomorrow if they do see her.
 
Aw I’m so sorry for what you and Daisy are going through @Gem789 😞 It’ll be very poor service if your local vets will not see Daisy especially for PTS just because you had her details transferred to C&R which you were well within your rights to do as all vets should provide a duty of care and to end any suffering of an animal (((hugs))) x

I’m so sorry 😞 Would C&R or Vets4Pets not see her for emergency PTS? When Harrison was dying, my vet told us to take him straight down as an emergency. We were away at the time and my mum was cat sitting so her and my dad took him. The vet just phoned my husband for consent x

That’s understandable as it’s such a heartbreaking decision to make and you need time to process it and say goodbye 😞 that’s one thing we never got with Harrison and it breaks my heart everyday but he wouldn’t have lasted until we got home. Thank you, I’m so grateful to my parents.

I’m hoping your local vet will show some compassion tomorrow and see her but if not, it’s good there’s another vet in your area x

It really is ,I'm hoping I can get her in tomorrow.I'm so sorry you didn't get to say goodbye to Harrison 😔.But I'm glad it was your parents that were able to take him to the vets.Daisy isn't her real name,it's little .I hope I'm allowed to put that.Its just the name I use at the vets.She got that name as she was always playing with things etc and would knock an unattached plug behind the sink,things like that.

Thank you. It broke my heart that we didn’t get to say goodbye to Harrison but I too am glad that he came home and that it was my parents who took him to the vets as I know some outdoor cats go off to die alone 😞

Aw Little is a lovely name ❤️ I hope you are as well as you can be today? I am thinking of you both x

I can imagine,it's horrible when you don't get the chance too.Thank you,she's booked in for 12.30 but I don't even know if she'll last that long,she can't even get up x
 
Ah I’m so sorry she’s gone
Look after yourself and remember your love of her
She was living her best life with you and you gave her everything
She died in her best place with you there
Sending much love
