I had a cat that had exactly the same symptom many years ago, and I have always felt somewhat guilty for having her put to sleep because of it, even though it was clear to me that she was dying. Not too long before she'd gone blind, and the vet had said he suspected cancer; later he retracted the diagnosis, which I suspected at the time was because the cat seemed not to be in any pain, because he could do nothing about it, and because I was so upset by the diagnosis (and he was trying to make me feel better). But I've never been sure, and have therefore felt guilty over the decision. Anyway, so your posting what your vet said makes me feel that I did the right thing after all.
