I lost my cat a while ago. 19 years is a very long time and it hurt especially because he was my best friend and was always there for me and I literally grew up with him from an 8 year old boy.
But you know, he was ready to go. He can't say it in words but on the day I took him to the vet and made the call there and then I knew he was done, and i had to respect him and not drag him through anymore quiet suffering. He just waited in my room especially for me, we had one last hug, I took him to the vet and he cooperated peacefully despite this being an entirely new vet and him having had a near death experience from a badly infected cat fight wound before. You'd think he would freak out and usually he was skittish at the vets. But no, I think he knew it was his time.
