Tomorrow night is Cub's appointment @ the exotics vet. It is breaking my heart that it may be her last day. She is allowed to do whatever she wants until then. I am going to pick her up a tropical fruit drink from the Second Cup for her last meal.
The saddest part is, she *wants* to live, & is eating gigantic bowls of mash made from Oxbow pellets, warm water, organic baby cereal & applesauce.
But she couldn't even eat a grape on Friday....

| Neuro, I know that it's hard because she wants to live still, but if she new that she could either live and suffer, or have a gentle end to her suffering, I have a feeling she might choose the latter.
I think it would be much harder on you if she wanted to end it, instead of enjoying what time she has left.
Good luck, and may Cub thoroughly enjoy her last moments with you. | |

| I know it is hard too, but maybe she knows she can pull through. Keep us updated on what happens. I hope everything goes okay.

| Neuro, I am always thinking about you and Cub and know how much this is hurting you. There is no doubt Cub wants to live but at this point I am sure she is very uncomfortable. As I said before I am positive the only thing that is keeping her so strong and content is your love and care. | |
