Fur Mom Grieves as Pet Cat Dies After Misunderstanding Over Sleeping Injection
A fur mommy expressed her grief after her beloved pet cat dies due to a misunderstanding involving a supposed sleeping injection.
Recently, Tan Ge Rine, a Facebook user, expressed her frustration after her pet cat passed away after a misunderstanding over sleeping injection. The post garnered various reactions from the online community.
According to the owner, she brought her beloved cat, Gelo, to a veterinary clinic hoping he would receive treatment and feel better. She trusted that the injection her cat was given would only make him sleep for a short time.
However, she later found out that the injection was actually meant to permanently end his life. The confusion became clear when she asked the veterinarian how long it would take before her cat woke up.
Instead of hearing a time frame, she was told that Gelo would no longer wake up. That moment crushed her, as she never agreed to such a procedure and was not clearly informed about what was being administered to her pet.
The fur mom shared that she has a long history of rescuing cats to give them a chance at life. Because of this, she could not understand why the veterinarian would assume she wanted her own pet euthanized. Gelo was not just a pet to her, but part of her family and deeply loved.
The post on social media gained massive attention and triggered emotional responses from animal lovers. Many expressed sympathy and shared similar stories, while others called for clearer communication and better consent in veterinary care.
Euthanasia is a legal practice for animals in certain situations, especially when they are suffering greatly and have no chance of recovery. However, it should only be done for humane reasons and with full understanding and approval from the pet owner.
