So, I have a question for U. I have only gassed my rats once. It was really hard for me to watch. I felt really bad for them as they struggled to breath. People have said that this is the most humane way to euthanize rats. However, I find it easier to deal with emotionally with blunt force trauma to the head. Instantaneous! No suffocation, and no fear of what is happening to them. Don't get me wrong, I HATE doing it AT ALL!!! But what are your...and anyone elses thoughts on this subject??
