[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry for your cat, OP. We put people to sleep all the time, but only after agonizing pain, and only after being sure beyond a reasonable doubt that they can survive. This bar is too high, I feel. Most people do not realize how painful the end of life actually is, perhaps because at some point, pain is endured without screaming or signs of suffering, because the patient can no longer express themselves. Like for our pets. I really wish we could see our way, as a society, to more compassionate euthanasia, and that we could research and compile an entire body of knowledge that is specifically about detecting pain in humans, and at what threshold it's too much and they should be released.
