Death Watch for Rainy
That thread above discussed emergency euthanasia possibilities in a dire emergency.
I finally found a good option. This is worth a read:

Sad, but sadder would be letting an animal suffer.
Obviously, consulting an experienced vet who knows small animals, so-called "exotics", is best - and I mean best in terms of emotionally for the human, also.
When using a vet always insist on watching the procedure to be sure he uses gas anesthesia to make the animal unconscious before the injection which can be very painful if the animal is conscious.
