I know that all of us have crazy lives from time to time, however - mine is CRAZY right now. My job is driving my crazy.. We are 4 people short on our staff... This is not a good time of the year to be short handed. This is our busy time. So I have been working from "the butt crack of dawn" to dark thirty several nights in a row... This does not make me happy... lol... nor does it may anyone else happy either. shew... that is off my chest.. on to the next thing that has been running through my mind..
This past week I had to do two very difficult things. The first thing was that one of my very dear friends had a dog that had to be put to sleep. She called me and asked me to take care of things for her and I gladly did. When she brought her dog in to be euthanized - she couldn't stay with her because it hurt her so much. I volunteered to stay with the dog. I stayed with the dog until she drew her last breath and just peacefully went to sleep. I believe that this is the most humane thing you can do for your pet when they are so sick and don't have a quality life. We can't do this for our human friends or family so for a sick pet it is most certainly the best thing.
The second difficult task of the week was another animal euthanasia. :( My son - adopted son (my daughters best friend) had a very ill ferret. He was so sad to see his little friend's life come to an end. I again volunteered to stay with the pet.. I stayed with Ralph and he just went peacefully to sleep. Sometimes it is a blessing to know that our faithful friends aren't suffering anymore...
I am thankful that there are things that we can do for our pets to keep them from suffering...
Love life, live it to the fullest...
