    Sorry to hear that :(

    I sympathize with you. The dog that I had growing up-this was in 1994-he was getting old, but wasn't totally bad off, and my Dad just took him without me knowing and had him put to sleep. Came home from work at a grocery store and there was a letter from my dad on my desk telling me he did that.
    I'll never forget how sad I felt knowing that the dog I cared for the most, who was a friend in that sense that animals you care about can be, was put to sleep and I didn't even get to have a say in it, say goodbye to him, be there when it was over.

    I think about my cat now, who is only like two years old, how I'll have her (provided she's healthy and all) well into my mid/late 30s and I think alot about how sad that will be when she's gone. I got her when she was a kitten and I love thinking about when she was getting used to my apartment, and the first time she curled up on my lap and started purring and fell asleep-when we became friends.

    I really love animals, so I'm sorry to hear that you're going through this. :)
