This is what I am responding to. If you were not implying what I was inferring, okay.

I said I would question the mental health (I did not use "crazy") of a vet, in the North American culture, who truly believes that animals and humans are the same and therefore euthenasia on a cat is mentally (and even physically, depending) comparable to assisting with the passing of a human. If you do not fit in that category, I do not question your mental health (I did not use "crazy").
Now that the vet thing is out of the way, you can stop being defensive with me. I am not opposed to assisted suicide and I am not bothered that your will specifies what should be done with you.
