We did a 19yo cat today. Kidneys got him. I had been considering doing it myself out back. When thinking about it I assumed it would be a nice day. He could put his paws in the grass and I'd comfort him right up till the end.
Winter dumped snow and ice on us and I'm glad it was not a viable option. Not sure how I would handle it doing it myself. We took him to his vet. They are great people. Let us spend all the time with him we wanted before administering the sedative, the kill shot and after it was done. Have a nurse call button type thing to let them know when we were ready for each step.
Somedays that old arena dust is tough to out run....
