Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If your vet is sure your cat is suffering from anti-freeze toxicity, then yes, unfortunately at this stage euthanasia is the most humane option as this will be fatal in a painful way. Eitherway it sounds like Cas is very very sick, and euthanasia might be his best option, even if the cause isn't anti-freeze. I am sorry that Cas is so sick.
