When asked of our Vet to do this for an OLD CAT, they refused. They wanted medication, and even paid for it. GOOD Vets do not want to put down a pet if they do not need to. Good Vets are good for BOTH you AND your pet. People are too fast to blame the animal for an external stress placed by the owner. Cats, especially, do not like change, and like structure and order. We have 3 very healthy and happy cats. I cannot image one of them "acting out" and the Vet putting them down because we "asked".
