So, i actually went into a Pet-loss-support chat room. yeah. Getting desperate I guess.

Anyway I was describing what happened to Munchkin and someone responded that it sounds like heart failure and it happened to her cat and her dog, and that it's very hard to diagnose, but once it is diagnosed there is no treatment, there is nothing they can do. It's genetic and it can happen at any time.

So if I gave Munchkin more time, she would have just suffered quietly for a couple more hours, maybe a day, and she would have died anyway.

So, that actually made me feel a lot better.
