Our precious furry loved ones rely on us for absolutely everything, including knowing when it's "that time". And when it is, we have an absolute obligation to do the right thing. Rest well knowing you did exactly what needed to be done. MrsB and I send our heartfelt condolences for your loss. Rest in peace, Leo.
My condolences for the loss of your family member.
Been there, too many times, on my last cat now, hopefully I'll out live him.

My daughter had her cat Taffy, put to sleep last Sunday, 6/10/18. The old girl had cancer , wouldn't eat, and my daughter didn't want her to suffer anymore.

We lose our family members. It's tough when we lose them. A piece of my heart goes with them. There all different personalities. I have seven cats right now. Had more at onetime.

So sorry for your loss, I had 5 at one time and now down to 2, very hard to part with them.

Sorry to hear that.
We put my girlfriends pooch down Friday. It made for a miserable weekend. I feel your pain.

Been there, done that too many times. I feel your pain and am sorry for your loss.
Our last was our mighty Webster, last October. He had a habit of giving my wife a little 'kiss' - a touch with his tongue on her nose, whenever he'd get close to her face. He went downhill very fast with kidney failure, and when he could no longer get up, we took him to the vet. My wife held him, and as the vet put the needle in, Webster summoned his last bit of strength, rose up to give her a 'kiss', then collapsed and died.
Unconditional love. That's what we get from a good pet, cat or dog.
Lordy, I miss him.
Here's mighty Webster, all 17 lbs of muscle, and a little thing I read at times like this to make me feel better. I hope it helps you too.

I am so sorry to hear about Leo. Thank you for the wonderful life you gave him. Most people wouldn't have it in them to take the time and give the love to an animal with epilepsy. I know he appreciated and loved you for the life you gave him.
It is a hard decision to make when it is time to let go. As hard as it is, just know deep down inside you did what was best for him. I know he knows.
Wishing peace for your family.

18 years, with epilepsy - you did a hell of a good job for Leo, including the final duty. My condolences.

Never quite understood until we got our own rescue cat, Bruce.
We offer our condolences.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I'm sure Leo knew you were with him at his last moments. Those who never had pets will never experience the joy these furry critters can bring into someones life. Be thankful for all the good times you spent with Leo.
