    I'm really sorry to hear that. It just sucks man, there's no other way to describe it. It well and truly sucks.

    We just put him to sleep and I'm a shell of a man. That was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.

    I'm so sorry. It is so fucking difficult and regardless of circumstances it never makes it easier.

    The hardest I ever endured was having to help put my ex's dog down while he was in the hospital. I'll never forget that feeling. You should take the time you need , it's devastating I know

    When we thought we were going to have to put Guinness down a few years ago, I was bawling my eyes out. I have no clue how i'm going to handle when it's inevitably time to do so.

    Hopefully you handle it better than I am. They did it at our place and warned us it would be fast once they started but he was gone in like 20 seconds and being there with him is going to haunt me for the rest of my life. But it wasn't about me.

    I sat on the floor with him for like 20 minutes afterwards just telling him I was sorry. I would have given anything and everything to make him better. Nothing worked.

    My condolances. My dog had the same problems back in 2006 and I was a sobbing mess of a teenager when they took her in.

    I'm ugly crying for you , truly my heart aches seeing people suffer in such away from their loss. You may not realize it but you are stronger than many as you saw and realized you could do nothing more than to let go without dragging his pain out further for our own comfort. I'm not sure I'm that strong as if something today were to happen to one of my kitties I don't know if I could be logical about it.

    It may not hurt any less for a long time but it's clear you aren't alone in those who understand.

    I lost my cat after 13 years, we had her cremated and found a tattooist who added her ashes to the ink and both my other half and I had paw prints done for her. Ashes is legendary fucking cat and got me through the deepest darkest of my life. The loss never goes away.

    It's been a bad few years with pets and I'm really sorry guys. Hugs all around.

    I have zero tattoos but if I'd of known about this when I had to put my cat of 15 or so years down I would have done the exact same thing.

    So sorry. Having to do something like that is one of the hardest things to do. My wife and I have had to do the same thing for 2 our our cats over the last couple years, and it hurts like hell. The tears eventually stop, and smiles come back when you think about all the good memories with your pet, and envision reuniting at the Rainbow Bridge. It just takes time

    I just had to put my 13 year old orange tabby cat down. He had Lymphoma. It's the 3rd cat I've lost in my life, but this 1 has hit me so hard. My whole body aches and my stomach hurts so bad. Many bawls have been had. Seeing him suffer was just too much for my wife and I. How long will this feeling last? It fucking sucks. Cancer can go fucking die in a fucking fire.

    I'm so sorry , sometimes we hold attachment to some in our life ( animal or human) that just mean more to us and it's okay to hurt like this

    I know when I lost my 2 year old kitty Blackjack when I was 14 , it hurt more than any other pet loss to date. He was always beside me , my protector and guardian through so much abuse and issues. But seriously fuck cancer

    I'll let you know. I'm on almost 3 years and I'll still randomly tear up at the memory.

    This thread has taught me that I'm probably a sociopath.

    I still have dreams about my dog that passed 4 years ago, I miss him.

    7th was when I had to put my dog down last year. Wasn't a good day even though one of my new pups made it a point to sleep snuggle with me for like 4 hours.
