Don't ever try to do it yourself at home. As a Vet Technician over the years, I have seen many botched attempts by the owners and then the animal ends up suffering more. See if you can find a Veterinarian who will come to your home and put them gently to sleep. Ask to have a sedation administered first before the final shot. Everything will go so smoothly for your precious one to pass on over the Rainbow, where some day you will see them again.

How do you put down a cat without feeling bad?

To put down a cat without feeling bad is hard, but think of it as putting the cat out of his misery. It also depends on how much you and the cat bonded. The closer you were the harder it is. In the end though, just try to remember that he/she is in a better place.


What should you do to get a new cat use to your house?

The best way for your cat to get used of your home is to just allow it to explore and walk around. Do not follow the cat. If you have stairs in your home it may be a little more difficult because they may be too afraid to go up or down the stairs. So in order to ease this fear, pick the cat up and walk slowly down the stairs or up the stairs. While doing that, rub your cat's body slowly. If the cat shows any hesitation, like scratching, meowing, or trying to jump out of your arms, then go back, but continue to rub it's side. When your back, put the cat down. Another way to encourage your cat to go up and down the stairs, is to go down/up the steps first, then stop and look at the cat. Then start walking off. The cat will then see that its safe and start to follow you.
