There’s a lot going on in my life. My cat with ckd is not drinking enough and not eating at all, I can’t afford to have her confined for who knows how long and then be discharged and her health declines again and it’s a recurring process that financially I can’t afford it.
I am force feeding her water, blended food, and medicine. I feel she wants to live, and it breaks my heart having to go through this every single day seeing her week and in pain. I don’t want to give up on her but it has crossed my mind if considering euthanasia is giving up on her or keeping her like this is torture to her.
Realistically, with my older brother needing help with his dialysis, having more responsibilities in the family. Needing to go to school for long hours. Take care of my five cats and make sure that my sick cat is tended to her needs which is 24/7, i honestly dont think this is possible for long term.
It is weird how my vet just openly said that I need other people to take care of her, I live on my own, no one in my family approves of my cats, if I die they will throw them out, what more will they do with my sick cat, i feel the vet was inconsiderate, tactless, and selfish. I felt cornered and pushed to the edge like I’m a bad cat parent like I never tried. I am not as privileged like other people that has someone with them to share the responsibility.
