How do you know when it's time?
My 16 yo cat, Shelia, was diagnosed with severe CRF a week ago Fri. The vet
gave subQ fluids and that seemed to help a lot. She perked up. Was very
feisty. And even bit me a couple of times when I tried to give her the subQ
fluids. But I've been managing that.
But something seemed to happen on Sun. I went away and when I came back she
was hiding and like a dishrag. I was hoping today's dose of subQ fluids would
perk her up. But it did not seem to help.
Obviously, I want to keep her alive, but I don't want to torture her. Any
thoughts?
Thanks.
Bill (who is very sad)
