    He’s playing with Luna over the rainbow bridge now. As heartbreaking as it is at least his suffering is over.

    I love that he was still drinking tea! That's such a wonderful thing to hold on to. I'm so sorry though, I know how much he meant to you all and how much he was loved by you all. He'll be having fun with Luna and watching and waiting for when you are all reunited....
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    So sorry to hear about Polo. He gave you such joy in your family. He was one of the family and will be missed. Xx

    Sending hugs. It's really tough to lose a beloved pet but he was with you all and loved to the end. Hold on to the good memories. Xx

    Despite the pain you feel today you'll have fond memories of the years Polo was part of your life

    Thank you everyone. I think he shows how lovely he was - my mum was sobbing over FaceTime, and he bit her years ago.......(and she has always blamed herself for that moment)

    We weren’t allowed to be in the same room as the vet so, once they’d set up the iv, to be with him at the end we had to give him the drug. Tough.
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Oh that is a horrible situation to be in. I dunno if I could do that. I mean of course it’s the right thing to do by him to end his suffering but to carry it out yourself has to be incredibly hard.
