@mathlover@qoto.org @lurker@qoto.org Might be UK, you have to have a medical reason to put down an animal. It applies to all animals, not just dogs or cats. I had a kitten with FIP, so vet and us knew he will die. Even then you cannot expedite the process until there is a sufficient reason to believe that animals quality of life was negatively affected by the illness, as in he is in pain and distressed.
