I’m having an anniversary party for Beethoven. Yes, it’s been exactly one year since he went OTJ. And he’s doing great!

There are lots of new beans and sugar cats in Lantus Land now, and I don’t know as many as I used to, and I’m sure you don’t know us. So to fill you in…

Beethoven was diagnosed with diabetes after I noticed major excessive peeing in November 2008. Our vet put him on Lantus and recommended DM food and said dry was fine. She suggested home testing occasionally but didn’t really grasp the concept. We limped along for quite a few months without much progress until I found FDMB. So in July 2009 we shifted gears, started regular (not just occasional) home testing, started a spread sheet, and started paying attention to the wisdom that is here. We took him off the DM food and shopped from Janet and Binky’s chart—high protein, low carb, wet only. After that, it took only about 3 months to go OTJ. Now I check his BG about once a month, and it’s been consistently in the good range. He’s healthy, happy, playful, demanding, and spoiled.

So Beethoven is living the life at The Falls. Stop by to see his place. He’s really settled in and says he’s here to stay.
 
Ruth!! How good to hear from you. And it's wonderful to hear how well Beethoven is doing and that you're both enjoying life at the Falls.

HAPPY ANNIFURSARY BEETHOVEN!! IT'S ONE YEAR ALREADY!! HOPE YOU ARE ENJOYING YOUR LIFE AT THE FALLS!! BIG HUGS FROM MOONIE & I :thumbup party_cat cat_pet_icon :thumbup !
 
A year, really??? Now, THAT sounds like a party!!

Beethoven is the perfect model for all that FDMB can do for a kitty. Test. Feed properly. Follow a sound protocol. Make friends who are happy to see you! And even, maybe, win a one-way trip to the falls, too. Low-carb icing on the low-carb cake.

Congrats, Ruth!!
 
Beethoven! What a story !Your story is MUSIC to this newbie sugar cat's ears. Happy AWESOME ONE WHOLE YEAR OTJ! Really cool! And a once-in-a-while BG check. It's sounds like da Falls forever for you. We share in your joy. Thanks for all the "can do" input. Love that sound!

Way to go! \M/ Rock On!

What a great update, Ruth! I love hearing about happy spoiled cats. Just as it should be.

Happy annifursary to you and Beethoven!!


(I think he needs a friend named Bach. I've been obsessed with the cello suites lately).
