I'm not say kill or not. I don't know. I've put down family pets at the vet, like a cat I was very close to for 13+ years. He had diabetes for 4 years and was insulin dependant, that went into remission about 6 weeks before his death, which was due to kidney failure. I was with him when he came out of the womb. I pushed the plunger on the syringe that took him out of this world. I was with him his entire life. It hurt a lot. His ashes are on my bookshelf and he will be burried with mine. Nearly three years later, and I'm still not over it. The death of a pet is very hard. Keeping them alive in pain is something I couldn't do.
