One example offered by the FDA is how owners might misinterpret a product that claims to control blood glucose. Pet owners might think that the dietary product is all they need to maintain the health of diabetic cats and dogs, when the animals might actually require insulin therapy or other treatment methods.

One such food is Evo, in dry food form. Ironically, dry food is one of the causes for high blood glucose levels. The claim that any dry food can lower BG's is absurd. Feline Diabetes can follow the same guidelines as people with diabetes. Low carbs, more protein. Feed wet food ....get rid of the dry. (dry food in cats creates a whole host of other health problems over time. It's cheaper at the outset but more costly with vet bills over time)

My 14-year-old healthy cat will not eat wet food. She will occasionally eat a very few bites of chicken or venison, if it is shredded very finely, or a few tsps. of milk or broth. There is no way to tell her Meow Mix is not food. As far as she is concerned, it is the only food, outside of a mouse or a baby rabbit. My vet suggested baby food ground chicken. Kitty was not impressed. The vets’ cats adore it.
