Thanks for reaching out with your concern, and I'm really sorry to hear you're going through this. It's never easy to face the possibility of saying goodbye to a beloved pet, so let's talk through what might be going on with your cat.
When a vet suggests euthanasia, it's typically because they believe your cat may be suffering from a condition that severely affects their quality of life, such as advanced kidney disease, untreatable cancer, or chronic pain that can't be managed adequately. However, knowing the specific condition your cat has can help you better understand why this recommendation was made.
At home, keep your cat comfortable by ensuring they have a cozy, quiet resting place, easily accessible food and water, and a litter box. Watch for any sudden changes like refusing food or water, difficulty breathing, or signs of pain, such as hiding or yowling. These could suggest your cat is suffering and needs immediate attention.
It's completely normal to seek a second opinion or further explanation from another vet for peace of mind. Consider booking a video consult with Dial A Vet to discuss your cat's condition in more detail and explore all your options. Our team is here to support you every step of the way.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
