In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

http://www.catchat.org/forum.html and go to the Cat Health and Behaviour section.  It is called "Help, my poor cat is dying".

The lady whose cat is ill has posted that she has found everyones advice and support (from across an ocean!) a great source of comfort, so thank you all for that  :hug:

I can't see it either - I'd love to get in touch, even if just to offer some support.

I have posted on there I think she needs to take on board the vets advice, them perhaps make the decision for the final act of kindness.

Advice about cat with terminal diagnosis needed on Cat Chat
« Reply #1 on: November 04, 2007, 15:23:17 PM »
For any Cat Chat members, in the Health and Behaviour section there is a post from a lady whose cat has been diagnosed with stomach cancer.  She is asking how and when to make the painful final decision for him.

I have no experience of this so feel inadequate to respond with anything other than support.  Can anyone help her?

Thanks - I know I am asking an upsetting thing by asking this.
