One of my classmates emailed me this. It's a sad, compassionate and strangely touching site. It's simply a list of euthanasias that this vet has had to do, day by day for three years.

What I Killed Today

A simple list, and yet I only got through a few entries before I started choking up.

Going into the profession myself, it has instilled in me just what I will be facing.

Perhaps I will be holding a record like this too.

The site is no longer updated, but it still intrigues me. A very empathic and poetic resting place for many animals over the rainbow bridge.

its so sad! Especially when they've had to put animals down without any apparent reason.

that is sad

I didn't get thru much of it either

Jes' comments on February 4 2008 made me cry.

:budgiedance: .... This happened to my zara girl...

One day my mum noticed that her legs were a bit shaky as she walked...

the next day she was taken to the vet

they said it could have been a toad

the next day she came home but was later taken to the emergency pet ER

they said she could have been poisened

She was put down four days after the intial vet trip, it was either a brain tumor or baiting...

She had just turned one....

It got so bad in the end she couldnt walk eat drink ad she had to kept in a cage because she shook so much....I was there when she was put down... I felt her stop shaking and I knew finally that she could be at peace...

RIP Zara....

Oh Chrso... :sad: but thank you for sharing. It's one of those things that makes you cry but you don't want to stop reading...

I have seen so many links like this and then commercials on Animal Planet that I can't watch anymore it gets me too teary eyed and I cry.

Ooh. I won't dare read it now, I don't think I could. I'm on a bit of a low after the exam hype and it sounds very sad.
