We believe that there are conditions that are not treatable and that do cause disability, that do not cause suffering, like Cerebellar Hypoplasia, Blindness, and Terminal Heart conditions. We do not feel these cats are candidates for Euthanasia! Then, there's the simple fact... To us, you can't be No Kill if you're still routinely euthanising healthy, asymptomatic cats because of a test result!
