Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted January 22, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 22, 2018 My sentiments exactly, great to hear the lads back home. Quote
Hugh Thesz Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Hi Gus, I have only flicked through the last pages as my partner Aileen died on Wednesday l, I will post about this tomorrow, so I am still raw. That said you are in my thoughts, anyone who openly displays such obvious love for any animal is someone I respect I really hope this works out positively. Quote
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted January 22, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 22, 2018 All the best, Gus. I had to put down a lifelong pet last year and it was absolutely devastating, so know exactly how tortuous and, at times, helpless the experience is. WAR WILLS! Quote

Hugh, incredibly sorry to hear that and not surprised you still feel raw. Thought are with you too. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone again. He's back in the vets Thursday to see how the antibiotics/cream he's on are working, but he seems decent in of himself and is eating well. Will see how it goes. Quote

I can't begin to imagine what you must be going through. Take your time with this. We'll all be here when you come back. Quote
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted January 28, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 28, 2018 (edited) Don’t think I’ve ever posted a picture of my old lab before. This is ‘Lots’ short for Lottie but always know as lots. I mentioned her earlier in response to Gus about him having to make difficult decisions regarding his cat. This poor lass can’t hold it in anymore, so the house is a mess every morning. Her back legs are knackered and she just hobbles. She’s completely senile now don’t doesn’t really respond or recognise anyone and just goes and sits in a bush in the garden all day. The vet has suggested it’s time to say bye. That was around a year ago. She hasn’t deteriorated any further, for all of her ailments, she still eats and drinks really well and clearly hasn’t given up so to speak. I’ll never have her put down unless it’s fully necessary, but I don’t want her to have to live in any pain and for me to drag that out... it’s so bloody difficult knowing where that line is. She’s been an awesome pal over the years, I’m gutted she’s forgotten who I am. Edited January 28, 2018 by Kaz Hayashi Quote
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted January 28, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 28, 2018 Heartbreaking that Kaz, she’s beautiful. Whatever you decide to do has been given deep consideration, and will be done as the best thing for her. Quote
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted January 28, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 28, 2018 Cheers plexy, just a shitty ride it out scenario at the moment. See how it goes. Quote
Paid Members Carbomb Posted January 29, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 29, 2018 Man, sorry to hear that, Kaz. As Plexy says, that's heartbreaking. Don't know how I'd deal with a beloved friend like that being no longer able to recognise me. Quote
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted January 29, 2018 Paid Members Posted January 29, 2018 Thanks, yeah it’s crap. Unfortunately it’s inevitable for many of us. I’ve never had to deal with a human having Alzheimer’s and dealing with this makes my heart go out to anyone whose parents or grandparents have it. Quote

She looks such a sweet girl, Kaz. I'd be surprised if you don't know when the time is right in terms of putting a pet down. As horrible as it may be, after years with a friend like that, you know them well enough to see when they aren't happy in of themselves anymore. Sorry to hear about all of this, sounds harrowing.

Thanks mate, she’s a bloody soldier that’s for sure. bloody hell @Sergio Mendacious Just look at the sheer machismo of that cat... “yeaaaahh, fuck you”.. the poster behind and the slogan add so much to this photo. Amazing. Quote
