Hello again
Hi kids,
It's been over a year.
While many creatures were let go since last posting, it was not an experience that I felt was worth sharing.
I have since returned to a position similar to the one that inspired the creation of this blog in the first place. So, without further ado...
An ownerless hamster that had wet tail that just wasn't healing.
A fifteen year old tabby cat. She could barely breathe. After she passed and her head was lowered, much fluid ran out of her nose. I'm guessing it was a pleural effusion, possibly from heart failure.

On November 3 we had to put down our beloved 12 year old tabby. She had a lime-sized tumour in her stomach and the cancer had also metastasized to her liver & lymph nodes. She hadn't even presented any symptoms up until a week before she died. It was such a shock and the hardest thing I have ever done. Thank you for this blog.
My roommate was once a vet's assistant for two years and ocassionally lent a hand during the ''euth'ing process' - her words. It's true that those who benefit from a surfeit of compassion are the most suited for this unenviable job. Fifteen years later she eventually became a vegan and an animal rights activist.
You must be a very kind and intuitive person to do what you do. :-)
