I guess what Im struggling with is how to determine my cats discomfort level. He used to be very active and playful but how he sleeps most of the day, doesnt play anymore, gets tired and has to rest after doing basic stuff like climbing on a chair, etc. but hes still eating, hes still affectionate, still makes it to bed with us most nights etc. hes only 6 so its a hard choice to make

In this case, I wouldn't do it yet. But given what you describe about his condition overall, I would be preparing for the possibility of sudden death, or a sudden turn for the worse where you do have to quickly make the decision to put him down in the near future. For now though - I think your hunch that he has a bit of life left is right.
