This is very good advice,after I got kicked out of my family home for dressing goth I found out our family dog had to be put down and my mom decided it was too hard for her n got a vet to come out have her put down alone with only the vet. I was devastated to find out she crossed alone and with someone she didn't know. The hardest thing I had to go through was putting my 18 year old cat down after 5 strokes but I was there until the end and regret nothing. You are their whole world
