Again, so sorry.

We've had the same vet for the 20 years we've been out here and have had to put down 2 cats in that time. They are incredibly compassionate about it. While I'm hugging the cat and the doctor is giving the meds, the assistant rubbed my back the entire time.

Once it was over they both said they were sorry and to take all the time I needed and then left me alone in the room with a small blanket to cover them before I left.

And then days later we get a condolence card in the mail signed by the staff. Super nice touch.
