This lesson covers how to support an animal respectfully as they near the end of their life.
Life comes to an end for us all at some point. To be respectful of the natural process is honouring free choice.
Always try to allow your animal to do whatever it is they are trying to do - hiding, resting, being in a special place, being with a special person, whatever it is. It will make things much easier for them.
In most situations, animals can make the transition perfectly well on their own. We don’t need to kill them when they appear to be in distress.
It’s more beneficial for them when we can focus more on their needs than on our own discomfort.
One of the issues that stop beloved pets from leaving is that they know how upset we’ll be. So our job is to talk to them, reassuring them that whilst we love them and will miss them, we will be OK, and they must feel free to transition when it is right for them.
Generally the process of transitioning is not an emergency, unless it is the result of an emergency, already covered. Generally it is a gradual process that often takes days even weeks.
I believe it is often such a slow process because the timing has to be right. I have no more knowledge on that than you might, but I believe it to be important.
Arsenicum album can help them make up their minds - do I want to stay or am I ready to go? It also helps with fear and chronic pain.
Allen consulted me about his cat. He thought he might be nearing the end and just wanted to make it easy.
I took the case as usual and he did have the characteristic signs and symptoms of Arsenicum. I suggest he put the remedy in a separate bowl of water to allow the cat free choice.
The cat did periodically choose the remedied water and whenever he did, he bounced back to life. Allen called it ‘the magic water’! One morning, about six months later, he found his cat dead, when he had seen him, apparently normal, just a short time before.
