Pet Euthanasia, long thread thoughts welcomed.

My suggestion is to be very honest with the animal. Mentally tell them what is going to happen. They will understand your thoughts and intentions. This would erase any question of betrayal. Be honest about what is happening, tell them to let go and move on, and escort them with Love. This will make it easier on them. This is difficult, but since it is happening anyway with or without you, by you offering your love, support and compassion, you are doing a good thing.

Thanks Monica, I think in a way you have hit on my underlying thoughts.

In some ways I was excited for this animal to be passing over - to a safe place of love, were it would no longer feel ill. I just wondered if this was inappropriate in someway.
The thoughts here have helped me realise that I'm just doing what comes natural to me
