Our Rhode Island Red chook of eight years was PTS last night, she was verly poorly and hobbling so it was the best thing for her. She was such a character, incredibly nosey and loved being pick up for cuddles and being fussed over.. Unlike out other skittish girl. RIP Miss P

Thank you both. I will admit, when we went down to the vet with her I was resigned and steeled that he was going to put her to sleep but I still cried a little when he actually said it! Yes though, it is all part and parcel of owning animals, with the happy days there eventually comes the sad and I am glad that we made it a kinder passing for her in the end! |

Thank you, folks. Keep having a bit of a wibble, eight years is a lot of love spent on them! It was all for the best though. *hughugs* |
