I'm so freakin' ready to go, but I can't leave my beloved cats with my elderly mother.
She can't carry cats to the vet and nurse them.

One of 2 cats had a stroke few months ago and her hind leg is partially paralyzed.
She now meows for me when I'm away and I can't leave her like this.

Do you similar problems?

Yes, I have a cat who I love more than life. She is 12 years old. I am ctb next week and have tried to find her a home but no one wants her. I thought about taking her with me, but I just can't do that. So I'm going to leave her behind in the apartment with a shitload of food and water and I will send an email to the manager letting her know and asking her to find a home for her. I can't think of anything else to do. I've stayed alive for a long time but my money has run out and I either have enough to pay one month's rent or my cremation. I chose the later. I'm sorry you're going through this situation, I know how difficult ti is.

yes. my dog is young but has special needs. I couldn't find a good home for him

if life becomes too hard and i couldn't carry on, i will pay for 2 weeks boarding at his animal hospital and ctb. They understand his medical conditions very well and will help him

I have similar feelings, not as strong as my mother is very capable of looking after my cats as she is not that old but still I am sort of the expert that knows what needs doing. It shows you are a considerate person so you should look at yourself positively. When people get a puppy I can't help but think "God that's 12 years you have to wait until you can die then".

10 and 12 which is pretty old for white Scottish Fold/Straight breed.

I wish that this is a simulation game in which I can give my life (HP?) to them.
Pure unconditional love in this fucked up world.

I'm a mom of many beautiful lady rats. They have short life spans but I still feel all of the guilt. 🥺
