I've had my cat for 17-18 years.

She was fine until 2 months ago when she suddenly became emaciated, and a week ago, she developed an upper respiratory infection. She weighs 3 pounds and is skelatal. She ignores the food I put in front of her.

I don't want to euthanize her, but what choice do I have? I don't have any money to treat her symptoms of dehydration with, or pay to tube feed her, or pay to give her fluids to rehydrate her. All the treatments she could get to help her, I am broke and can't pay for. I have to wait a week to pay for her to be euthanized too.

I feel guilty as hell. I feel like ending her life, is like killing her. But what can I do? She is my best friend -- this cat. I feel so horrible.
