Death
If you think of your pet like family, remember this at the end of your best friend's life, when euthanasia is the only option: instead of traumatizing your pet (and yourself) by an end-of-life transport to the vet, you can have a veterinarian come to your home to perform euthanasia for your pet—at not much greater a cost than the doctor visit. If your vet doesn't do in-home euthanasia, there's a good chance he or she knows someone who does.
