I grew up on a farm, cattle and horses. I just don't like shooting the animal, I mean you have a dog your whole life who is loyal and the last thing it sees before it dies is you shooting it.

I'd rather just pay the vet to put it down peacefully.

Yes, I'm that guy who had his son's cat die in a dishwasher.

But seriously, my daughter's cat from that same litter caught FID recently, and is less than a year old.  Per the vets $375 bill, it's a 100% terminal version of Coronavirus where she has days to weeks to live.  Ultimately, she will die of multiple organ failure.  

There is an unlicensed drug called GS-441524 that has an 84% cure rate, but you have to buy it on the black market from websites.  It's basically Remdesivir made in China, and costs $900 for a treatment over 84 days of SQ injections and pills.  

Should I spend $900 on an outdoor cat my daughter raised from a kitten, or let it go to the woods to die, or spend money to put it down, or just give it a .22 round and put it out of it's misery as enough money was already spent?  She was tearful last night over the news, and has spent today making pictures to place on the cats grave, and knows if she sees her coming around the house to say her goodbyes.

FID is cat AIDS not COVID.


Yup, the stray we took in a few years was diagnosed with FID. I see OP subscribes to the propaganda that everything everything is rice rabies.

OP, sorry your kid's cat isn't doing well. We just had our 17 year old cat put down. She had kidney failure and a mouth infection. We paid the vet $385 to put her to sleep. I suggest you do the same.

Quoted:
A vet euthanizing and cremating a pet is under $100.

Or just hit it with a shovel and then bury it with said shovel.

?????

No, it's not. It was $385 to put ours to sleep. Cremation was an additional $200.

Just have the vet do it right. Euthanasia is $64 at a regular vet. The animal shelter may do it cheaper than that.

I grew up on a farm and still own a farm, we give our animals a respectful death here, and drowning them in a sack isn't that.

Shooting them is cheap and quick, drowning an animal is heartless and needlessly cruel, especially when a .22 is what  3 cents a shot?

Would you like to drown in a sack? If the answer is no then why would you do it to any other living creature?

Yes I shoot and eat animals, but I do my very best to kill them quickly and with the least amount of pain possible, I feel that's my responsibility as a good and moral human.

You do you, but not all of us that own actual farms think drowning anything is the right way to do things.

I say all the above as someone who really doesn't like cats much.

Flame suit on I guess.

I have had to do it more times than I can count, both myself or Vet. Really, unless you are extremely rural, with a cat that family has an emotional bond with do the Vet. They are tough and do flop around quite a bit. If you are considering a $900 black market treatment, $100 euth at the Vet is not the wrong choice. Sorry for your situation OP.

On our farm pets get the vet 100% of the time, and farm animals get a .22 in the X spot.

You can euthanize small animals with vinegar and baking soda to make carbon dioxide.  Easy to look that one up.  I had to snuff out my kids pet rat near the end and it seemed rather peaceful.  Not sure how much you’d need for a cat.

If you’re advocating doing something to a cat that you wouldn’t have done to a dog or other animal, you’re a fucking scumbag

OP, be a decent human being and either treat the cat or have the vet put it down if you can’t afford the treatment

I had to laugh too.  They obviously have not had this done.  It was $200 for the vet visit and $120 for group cremation with discarded ashes (cheapest option).  $100 for both???  LOL.  

Why people get so touchy freely about this topic is beyond me.

Vet if possible.

Also, are you sure the prognosis is terminal?

I don't know if those shady treatments actually work.

Prepost EDIT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GS-441524 Apparently they might. Why the hell hasn't this been licensed for veterinary use?

If you're going to put the cat down I recommend a vet do it, as it'll be pretty much guaranteed a humane, peaceful passing. Shooting it might be a bit messy and there's no guarantee it'll be instant. (I personally also think it's a bit barbaric, but that's just my opinion, man.)

I've lost a few cats, sorry for your loss.
