HI,
My name. I Dea and I've been on the forum for less than an hour. I've had many many animals growing up. Since my hubby Scott and I have been together over 20 yrs between all our animals as well as people calling me I've always been the one to say it's time. I used to cry a lot. However one day while crying I realized I was doing what was needed for the animal. If it was what I wanted who knows what that animal may go thru. The biggest thing, listen to your gut. It won't ever lead you the wrong way. As much as it hurts for me it's also relief.
I also know a different dispatch method. A few actually but this is one that can be done quickly and easy. If you don't have access to dry ice. Put the animal in a zip lock. Wrap that in paper towels. Another zip lock and more paper towels. While doing this keep saying "This is for the animal. Not forme". Drop something heavy on it. A big book I like because there is no way. Possible you can miss. Anything heavy and bigger than the ziplock will do. For me I hate doing this but there's no choice. So once I drop the item I walk away for a little me time. I'm so sorry this is my first post on this board.
I'm so very sorry for your losz
