Hello, one of my family's cats is not doing well and my wife and I know it is time to end his suffering. We live in Coventry and are looking for suggestions for end of life care. Our cat has always been very anxious about car rides so we do not want his last moments being full of fear so we're looking for someplace local to minimize the drive time.

We do have some locations in mind, but we wanted to reach out to see if there are any places that are better than others or places we should avoid.

Thank you.

There are traveling veterinarian clinics which will provide in home services. Somewhat pricy, but this would mean no traveling.

North Paws in Greenville was amazing when my Lucky was at the end of his life. https://www.northpaws.com/

Probably a 20 - 25 min drive depending on where you are in Coventry though.

We live in Providence and used https://petlossathome.com when it was our cat’s time. The vet who came was wonderful and made the whole process so simple.

West Greenwich Animal Hospital is very knowledgeable and compassionate to both the people and the pets. Highly recommend. I'm sorry for your loss and your cat's pain.

Back in February, I had to put my cat down. Like yours, he hated the car, so my vet suggested https://www.atyourdoorvetservices.com/ . Dr Washburn showed up at my home, and was so kind and gentle during the entire process. It's a bit pricy, but my cat was so in peace in his final hours. I'm sending you prayers for a peaceful passing for your beloved cat.
