Recognizing When Quality of Life Is Diminished: We know that assessing your pet's quality of life is essential. Symptoms like chronic coughing, labored breathing, regular incontinence, extreme lethargy, difficulty moving, loss of appetite, and unmanageable chronic pain can be indicators that your pet's quality of life has significantly diminished.
Symptoms That Indicate Quality Life Has Been Greatly Diminished:
- Chronic Coughing
- Labored Breathing
- Regular Incontinence
- Extremely Lethargic Behavior to the Point That They Do Not Seem Interested in Playing, Walking, Eating or Even Being Petted by Their Loved Ones
- Hard Time Moving Around
- Appetite Loss
- Chronic Pain That Cannot Be Managed With Medication
When Is Euthanasia the Best Option?
One of the most heart-wrenching decisions you may face as a pet parent is choosing euthanasia. It is a compassionate choice.
How to Determine When the Time Has Come?
A key question to consider is, "Does my pet have more bad days than good days?" If the answer is yes, euthanasia may be the most humane way to ensure your pet's comfort.
Choosing Euthanasia Over Natural Death
While natural death may result in a prolonged and painful experience depending on your pet's condition, euthanasia provides a more comfortable and peaceful transition, sparing your pet from further suffering.
