Saying goodbye to a beloved companion is always a painful experience. Unfortunately, as loving pet parents, we are often forced to make the difficult decision to end our companions’ suffering when they are no longer able to enjoy a decent quality of life due to advanced age, terminal illness, or serious injury. In these instances, humane euthanasia is often the kindest gift we can give our pets, even though it is incredibly difficult.
At A Pet’s Farewell, we offer in-home cat euthanasia in Long Beach and the surrounding areas. If you are thinking about choosing us to help ensure a peaceful passing for your feline friend, here’s what to expect.
Our Process
When we come to your home for your cat’s appointment, we’ll begin by performing a brief exam and taking the time to address any questions or concerns you may have. While we’ll help you determine whether the time is right to say goodbye during our initial phone consultation, we will make sure you are still comfortable with proceeding once we arrive, too.
We’ll ask you to take your cat to a quiet, comfortable spot in your home. This could be on the living room sofa, in your bedroom, or nearly anywhere else you and your pet feel comfortable. It’s up to you whether you would like to have other family members present.
To begin the procedure, your cat will be given a sedative which will allow them to peacefully drift off into a deep slumber. It also ensures that your companion will not feel any anxiety or pain. Once the sedative has had time to take effect and you feel that you are ready to proceed, we will administer the euthanasia drug. This medication takes only a few moments to take effect. We will listen to your cat’s heart and let you know when they have passed.
