I don't know anything about cats and comas and how likely they are to recover. But if he felt she had a chance for recovery he would not have euthanized her. Caroline appears to have recovered (knock on wood) and we STILL don't know what was/is wrong with her. Of course if it is brain cancer she won't recover. But for now she is doing ok.
