Cat Quality of Life Assessment

Making the decision to euthanize is one of the most difficult and compassionate choices a pet parent can face. We understand this deeply personal journey and are here to support you every step of the way.

We often recommend this Quality of Life Assessment, a thoughtful tool based on the great research from NCSU-CVM’s feline experts. A cat’s quality of life involves many aspects—both mental and physical, as well as their environment and family dynamics. This questionnaire can help you thoughtfully assess your cat’s comfort and well-being.

We understand this process can be overwhelming. The purpose of this assessment is to help you gather your thoughts and gain a new perspective, not to serve as a final decision.


Please know that you are not alone in this. We are here to offer support, answer your questions, and guide you with compassion. If you would like to discuss your results or schedule a consultation, please contact us directly.
