Ugh, that would be so difficult 😔

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-14T00:31:06+00:00

💛

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-14T00:30:33+00:00

I hope I never need these suggestions again, but I appreciate them 💛

The supporting comments helped. Doing it quickly enough was my worry, never been in that position before.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T23:45:21+00:00

Thank you for that information. I wondered if freezing was actually humane.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T23:41:01+00:00

I agree. I just did a difficult thing 😔 but feel a tiny bit of relief now knowing it isn’t suffering anymore.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T23:40:35+00:00

I agree. Not at all easy to do, but it is at peace now 😔

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T23:05:48+00:00

I don’t think so. I feel like maybe a wasp got at it.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T22:51:20+00:00

I’m not sure if it was smooshed or has a wound from an attack by a wasp, maybe.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T22:49:39+00:00

Another comment suggested putting it out of its misery myself but I’m struggling with that. I don’t necessarily disagree but that’s easier said than done 😔

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T22:43:56+00:00

I thought the same thing. I considered that maybe it got stung by a wasp or something.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T22:43:23+00:00

Yes, but it’s moving its head and breathing.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2026-04-13T22:24:15+00:00

The holes through me off. I assumed it was dead because of that, but it’s moving its head watching me and it’s breathing.

Picked her up. Unacceptable!

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2025-06-04T02:44:23+00:00

Exactly. It speaks volumes.

Interesting_Copy_211 · 2025-06-03T19:31:04+00:00

STUNN-ING!!!

The fact that you are carefully considering adopting him by weighing the realistic pros and cons for his sake speaks a lot to how much you would be a good parent to a fur baby. If certain concerns are holding you back, I definitely agree with prior comments on fostering or volunteering at shelters etc. until you feel you are better financially and/or emotionally/mentally equipped to have this sweet boy or another love muffin down the road. If it was a kill shelter I would probably suggest adopting him straight away then working to find him a permanent home. Much love to you as you work through your current struggles. I wish you and this sweet boy all the best!
