I had one of my old cats put to sleep
She had a kidney tumour and was peeing all over the house. There was nothing the vet could have done to ease the discomfort she was in, so it was the kindest thing to do. She was about 16 years old, so a good innings for a moggy. I was in the surgery with her when she had the injection, and it was very quick - took about a minute for her to drift off.

Then I threw her through a window.
