I have Cat Diabetes!!
Remember I told you that I wasn’t feeling well? It got worse, and my owner started getting worried about my strange behavior and a little annoyed that i started peeing all over the house (something I had not done for about 17 years). Anyway - she took me to the vet (HATE the car ride. HATE the dogs at the vet’s waiting room), and it took him 3 minutes to say he suspects I have diabetes. Then he pricked me with a needle to measure my blood sugar and guess what? The smart vet was right! I HAVE DIABETES !! HELP!
So, we were relieved it wasn’t cancer and that I’m not going to die tomorrow. And we were surprised to know that cats can have diabetes. But, OK. Now we know.
Now my owner has to buy some medicine - insulin, and give me injections every day (we’ll see about that), she also needs to monitor my blood sugar level so we need to visit the vet more often now (ughhh). She bought special diabetes canned food for me (hurray!! canned food), which I like!!
A very exciting day. I think i will go lay down now. I will let you know how it goes. Let me know if you have any questions…
