One of my 6 ferrets were seriously ill. I had to put him to rest today. It was the hardest thing that I have ever had to do. I could not let the little guy suffer anymore
To all of the administration here. I know my signature is a bit long right now.....It is a memorial for my pet. I can remove it tomorrow. Please have a heart and allow it to stay for 24 hours. :wah: :wah: :wah: :wah: :wah: :wah: :wah: :wah:

I've had to do the same with a dog in the past. It is a very horrible experience. But know that your baby is in a better place. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/17/17_1_20.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001)

You're poem made me cry. I am so sorry for your loss (((((((GoddessRhiannon))))))):heartthro
Over this last weekend we had to put down a horse. Actually, a close friend of ours brought her old horse Hap (Happy Go Lucky) to stay and keep my horse company during his last days/months of life. They were here this last Sat. when we noticed hap wasn't getting up from lying down.
We went down to try and help him up....his legs wouldn't hold him...we tried and tried until late night and came to the conclusion the next day that he had a stroke. We covered him up, not figuring he'd make it through the night, but he was a fighter.
Donna (the owner) owned Hap since 73. We buried Hap next to another horse of mine named Lady.
I wish my friend (Donna) could see your poem. I think in a way it would provide her a bit of comfort.:heartthro :heartthro :heartthro :heartthro :heartthro :heartthro :heartthro

But understand that animals have spirits just as we do and if they love you they stay with you. I had to do the same with my horse a year ago, and it was the hardest thing I had ever done. But the pain lessens after a while and you remember the joy they brought you.

Oh, GR, it'll all be okay. :hugz: Just think of what an unselfish thing you've done for your ferret (may I ask which one it was?). Now he/she won't be in pain anymore.
Tons of hugs. :hugz: :hugz: :hugz: :hugz: :hugz: :hugz: :hugz:

It's very difficult, I know....but you did it out of pure love, and im sure your baby knew that...wouldn't you like to pass over knowing it was on account of pure love?

To answer your question Klucky....it was Harley.
I woke up yesturday morning....everything seemed fine. I went shopping and when I came home, I saw that Harley kept trying to go to the bathroom...but could not. When I finally got him to the vet...they said his bladder was full of crystals...and was about to rupture. If it ruptured..his little body would poisen itself. I had no choice...I did not want to bring him home and have him suffer. So I held him during the whole proceedure....so I could grab onto his soul as soon as it left his body.
