Your responses say that you will feel too guilty if you don't pay.

You should pay.

In my family it would be up to my wife.

She adores those cats!

We would be paying!

Why should it be the business of anyone here where you put your money!

Get another opinion from another vet before putting him down. Maybe you can find a vet who is more reasonable.

There is no guarantee the cat will survive and no guarantee that he will live another six years or six minutes. Make the cat comfortable and have the vet administer the drugs to bring it's pain to an end. I have had to make this choice with many animals over the years - some of them kids pets. Take some pictures and remember the cat the way it was and forget about the fact that you had to choose. Donate some of the money to the local shelter and when you are ready go get another cat. This one will be different and will start new memories.

I’ve spent approx $5K on my cats surgeries (he was 8 at the time)after his accident. It was no question and we finally had an excuse to use the credit card.

Well, in the past year alone, I've spent over $3000 on my late dog Daisy, new puppy, and 14 year old cat.

My vet is a wonderful man and because I've spent so much, let me pay what I could each month. See if your vet is willing to do the same. My guess is, if you're a loyal client, he will.
