Should we consider putting out cat down?

20. Based on what you have said, my answer is no, not yet.

My wife and I had cat named Sassy that passed back in 2018. She was a month shy of her 23rd birthday when she crossed over. If your cat likes to eat and purrs when you pet him, you're doing well. It's not time yet. When Sassy passed, she curled up into a ball and went to sleep first. We knew something was up because laid down on the floor in the middle of the kitchen. This was something that she never did in all her years. She was breathing but not responding, so we took her in and helped her over at that point. The last cat I had to put down had a stroke. That was blatantly obvious and I rushed him to a vet. He was suffering and the prognosis from the vet was really bad. We said our good byes and saw him over. You're doing the right thing by keeping an eye out for any signs. Your cat will let you know.
