*hugs* You guys have my sympathy and love. I've been there recently with our last dog before our current two, Remus, just before the turn of the year. We had a similar problem-- over the week or so after we made the decision, he started having some better days again, and the day we put him to sleep was a better day. But we knew two things, that even the 'better' days were only just barely better, and that worse was coming, rapidly. You guys did the right thing by her. It hurts, oh God I know it hurts. But it is the right thing, the responsibility we have to the pets who give us unconditional love, to do the adult thing. No matter how much it hurts. So stay as well as you can, and if it can't soothe the pain, hold it against the memories of recrimination, because she wouldn't want you to hate yourself for the right decision; of that, I am certain.
It's very hard, and it will be some time I think before I'm over it. I'm trying to deal with it a little at a time - but none of the other cats will quite fit in the hole she's left. Still, thank you.
