[quote=Anonymous]At what point is it ethical to do so? My 18 year old cat has kidney disease and heart issues. Vet has said he could get a blood clot at any point. The cat vomits multiple times a day and has ruined multiple rugs at this point. He howls any time he is about to vomit like he is in pain. But the cat still eats and drinks and is affectionate. From the online “is it time?” checklists it seems like his quality of life is still good enough to not think about euthanasia yet. I love this cat. But I am also over having to worry about him and the destruction of my house. We’re set to travel soon and though he’s always done well with a cat sitter, I just don’t want the stress of him possibly dying while we’re gone. Would it be unethical to consider euthanasia before our trip? [/quote]
