When someone is dying Apr 25th 2012, 19:55 Signs of Death | 10 Signs of Death Approaching | Caring.com Quote: No one can predict the moment of death. But physicians and nurses involved in end-of-life care know that certain symptoms are usually associated with the body's shutting down. These signs of approaching death are specific to the natural dying process (apart from the effects of particular illnesses the person may have). Not all dying symptoms show up in every person, but most people experience some combination of the following in the final days or hours: 1. Loss of appetite 2. Excessive fatigue and sleep 3. Increased physical weakness 4. Mental confusion or disorientation 5. Labored breathing 6. Social withdrawal 7. Changes in urination - gets more concentrated 8. Swelling in the feet and ankles 9. Coolness in the tips of the fingers and toes 10. Mottled veins I would not be surprised if dying pets have similar symptoms.
