Had an iguana once. Previous owner fed her the wrong diet and did not properly take care of her. I spent several years helping her shed and her skin and spikes on her spine were growing back in nicely. One day she became paralyzed from the waist down due to the poor diet from the previous owner. Ended up putting her down.

One cat had hyper thyroid and a tumor in her neck. She was 14.

Another cat had another tumor and she was ripping all of her fur out. She was 16.

Another cat was diabetic and also had hyper thyroid. He eventually stopped eating. He was 17.

Another cat had a tumor in one of hid kidney. Doctors told us he would only live for 3 months. He ended up living for over a year before he finally stopped eating and drinking water. He was the best cat ever. He was 15.

I forgot what happen to the last cat that we had to put down.

One dog had an autoimmune deficiency disorder and his body started attacking all of his red blood cells. There was nothing we could do and he past away 3 days later. He was 7.

The other dog's hip constantly kept dislocating and she couldn't walk after the puppy accidentally tripped her. Eventually we decided it was not worth it for her to live like that and in so much pain. We fed her two cheese burgers before we put her down. She was 6.

Had two snakes, one had some blockage after eating and was found dead the next morning. Looked like his stomach exploded. The other snake I got sick from something and was found dead the following day.

All of these pets past away within a 1 year span.

Currently have 1 cat and 2 dogs still.

These are just the pets at my mom's. My dad has had 2 dogs and a cat recently pass away and has 1 cat and 1 dog still with us.

Never got easy and still tough every time one went.

Only you can decide what is best for her and you.
