On February 14 2025, the Jagt family made the difficult decision to let go of Annie, their beloved cat who had been a part of the family for nearly two decades. Brian Jagt brought the 19-year-old cat to Senoia Animal Hospital in Georgia, where he signed the paperwork and paid for the euthanasia procedure. For 18 months, the Jagts believed Annie had died on that day, but that wasn’t true.
Clinic records at the Senoia Animal Hospital showed that Annie had died on that day. The family had no reason to believe any different; after all, they had paid for the procedure and signed the paperwork. However, in July of 2026, they learned that the people they had entrusted with their pet had crossed the line by not going through with the procedure. Instead, they opted to keep Annie alive despite the family’s wishes.
