So helpful to have specific things to measure for Quality of Life.
This survey helped me look at my cat’s recent changes in a more comprehensive and honest way. It brought up things I hadn’t thought about before. I can clearly see examples of how he has changed in just the last week or so. My heart is sad, but I don’t want him to suffer.
