Poor little guy. :( It always sucks to have to make that decision, but you did the right thing. We hung on to my previous cat too long and I still feel guilty about it.
I'm sorry that it worked out that way for you, man. I can see why you'd want to give your cat a chance to pull through, they can be resilient little fighters. I've spent the past day wrestling with the decision we made and my head knows it was the rational decision, my heart feels like he had years in him still. He was only 8.
But he'd been sick a month before and fought tooth and nail to stay with us. He gave us an extra month but whatever struck him down the first time came back for him again. It really hurts to let him go but seeing him go through it again one more time, probably getting worse each time... he would have suffered. I'm trying to be at peace with the decision to let him go.
And thanks, everyone. I know there's a lot of love for pets on this board and y'all are right. He was family. I cared about my l'il Link as much as I would a brother. There might have been a time when I thought it was silly to care about a cat that much but the l'il monkey crawled his way into my heart and he's never going to leave.
