This was my first experience at having to have a pet euthanized, so I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. I was relieved at how peaceful it was and how quickly it went. He has always let me hold him on his back and cuddle him like a baby, and that is just how he went today...wrapped up in his fuzzy blanket, having his fur stroked. As soon as the vet administered the meds, his soft little head slowly fell over and rested on my chest. Couple of kisses on top, and that was it. He was at peace.
I am going to miss him terribly...already do, but I am so very glad that I had that sweet, little fuzz muffin in my life.
