The dog is Max and the Cat is patches, and we had to put them both down last night. Before I go much further, they were both pretty old. Max had some form of Cancer, we never really did get much of a straight answer from the vet, and Patches was recently diagnosed with diabetes, and wasn't looking good either. My parents decided to do it all at once.
I haven't been through this before, and I have to admit that I never thought it would be this difficult.
I always knew losing a pet was difficult, but I never fully understood people that put it on the same level as losing a family member. I do now.
I guess I'm going to put my great writing degree (almost) to work here when the only word I can use to describe it is that it kinda really sucks.
I guess that didn't help as much as I thought.
