I don’t know about cats, but we have a diabetic Gordon Setter dog, and has been for 4 years. Cats get it more than dogs. Our baby has lived a full life, it’s just a pain in the butt for us. We check her with a human monitor 4 times a day, we’re lucky I can come home for lunch break. Carefully monitor what she eats and she gets 2 shots a day, one at 7 am and 1 at 6 pm, that’s about it.

Miss Peach is the world's worst patient. She is a biter and scrapper. She put one guy in the hospital. Ironically, because he had diabetes.

I do not think the shots will be a happy thing. Testing today and set nailed me real good on three fingers.

I don't heal real well anymore.

There are some crystals that you can put in the litter box that will give a range of readings. Has anyone used that?

The vet said that she had used up a lot of her lives when she swallowed all that string TEN YEARS AGO and had to have a huge operation on her intestines. But she survived that!!
