What is your opinion about euthanasia?

It’s so commonly accepted for animals, why should someone not be allowed to make that decision for themself?

This has always bugged me.
In general I don't like euthanasia, it seems like a "die faster" solution for family/owners.
At the same time I don't like the idea of people suffering so I don't really know if I'm for or against it.

i has a cat that went downhill fast (we think maybe leukemia) she literally was urinating on herself and didn’t even react when she fell in my daughters bath. It wasn’t good it wasn’t fair to egg it on

@Soramarie That's harsh, I sorry that happened.
I can understand wanting to prevent suffering, but at the same time I feel that euthanasia for humans could be abused in so many ways by hospital staff and/or family.
I think we should try to improve the quality of palliative care instead of resorting to euthanasia.

it definitely needs to be the individuals choice and go in front of the board first
