My stomatitis boy--14 year old Marley-- is now officially a diabetic. Do I need to open a new member account for him, or is there another way to do this? How can I share his SS, info, etc?
He's been surprisingly fabulous with testing and dosing but hasn't had much of either, at this point. He's been quite sick with a stomatitis flare up and had a surgical procedure yesterday (looking for absorbed teeth).
All is as good as can be expected, but I don't know how to go about sharing Marley"s info here.

You don't need to start different account unless it's easier for you. Others have 2 cats in same account. You would just add separate ss link for Marley.

You can also use same account but start separate threads each day. That might keep it the least confusing for all.

So you would do a 6/9 Jack......... Then start another 6/9 Marley. Since both ss are in your signature, you wouldn't need to worry about that part.

Thanks Paula. It's much easier for me just to add Marley"s link.
Two sugar babies!

Several years ago I had two at the same time, plus a special needs dog. I found it was just as easy to care for two sugar kitties at the same time as one.

It's not nearly as hard as I thought it would be, probably because both boys are very cooperative. But it did throw me for a loop a bit. Jack was in remission for 2 years. He fell out of remission recently, and then Marley was diagnosed right after that. I'm getting used to it though.
 
Exactly. Think of a strategy you can use. Put the day's syringes in different colored containers with the kitty's name on it on your kitchen counter or some other way that will keep you alert to the difference. You don't want to be half awake in the morning and mix up the doses. (I nearly gave my non-diabetic cat a shot one morning because he stuck his head in Gabby's food. It took a few seconds for my brain to engage that the cat was the wrong color.)
