Not surprising, Marlow wasn’t rabid. She was also negative for FeLV and Aids. He said in just the brief contact they had with Marlow, it was clear that something wasn’t right with her. I am not sure if that was supposed to make me feel better- but it doesn’t. I don’t like these type of decisions but when it has to be made, I won’t shy away from it. I can’t. It’s not fair to the cat.
at the end of the day, you did the right thing for her. Something was wrong and she was not living a happy life. No matter how hard the decision was and Lord knows I have had to make it too many times myself, you released her from her pain, her demons. You gave her the ultimate gift, you loved her enough to let her go.
Marlow was an angry cat for some reason. You did your best, and that includes letting her go.
