Poor little girl, she looks so sad. But I see that Pia is happy for the gentle cuddlle as the paws are curled and relaxed. A lovely least picture. My sympathies, Linda.
It is so sad to let one of our friend go, they are like our children, but yet, we also know the suffering that they endure and when the hurt becomes to hard to bear or is chronic towards even more hurt, then we must make that terrible decision ... to let go. In your heart ... you know you gave Pia a good life, all the comfort and love you could provide ... I am sad for you.
