DCIN Adoptable Diabetic Cats--Featuring SAMBO!!!

[Diabetic Cats in Need (DCIN)]

DCIN is starting to add additional adoptable diabetic cats to its list, and this week's addition is SAMBO!!

This is the first cat from Canada that DCIN has posted for adoption. He and another cat were dumped at a PetSmart and taken in by a rescue group in the Toronto area. He is 10 YO and his diabetes is being treated with Lantus, hometesting, and wet food. He is said to be a very sweet, kind, gentle loving boy. Read more about him on the DCIN Blog here. He needs a new home SOON.

******************************************************************************************************************
The cats currently on DCIN's adoption list are:

Beasley (in DCIN foster with dian in Pittsburgh; will adopt separately from his friend Twinkie)
Doug (in foster with Claudia in MA)
Jacob (in foster with OLM Catnip Cottage in Summerville, SC)
Jules (in foster with Claudia in MA; diet controlled diabetic)
Kitty (in foster with missyandlittlegray)
Pewter Boy (in foster with Claudia in MA)
Rusty (needs rehoming from Phoebe near Detroit)
Sebastian Purrbox (in foster with Stefani in MD)
Tawny (in DCIN foster with Desi)
Twinkie (in DCIN foster with dian in Pittsburgh; will adopt separately from his friend Beasley)
Yoda (in foster with Kelly in Bloomington, IN)

I invite the foster beans of cats of the DCIN adoption list to post updates about their charges on this thread. You may see new threads during the week if cats are added to DCIN's adoption or courtesy lists. (The courtesy list is here.) You also may see the foster beans post about these cats on Health and the Insulin Support Groups.

Note: Last week's adoptable diabetic cats post.

Here is a pic of when hell froze over in my house and our civie Daisy allowed Yoda to lay down next to her:

Yoda continues to be diet controlled, but will need constant monitoring since he is prone to inflammation and/or infections in his mouth. The inflammation of his gums is currently under control, but he may need 1-2 rounds of clindomyacin each year to keep it at bay.

He is a very affectionate kitty. He will talk to you and give a light touch to your arm or leg when he is hungry. If you don't feed him soon enough he tries to eat plastic :lol: He loves laying in the sun and playing with his mousie. He is great with other cats, dogs, and strangers, but make sure they are ok with an outgoing cat! He will sleep at our feet most nights, and likes to climb in my husband's lap while watching TV. He is a great kitty with lots of purrrsonality!

Sadly, DCIN heard nothing about interest in the most gorgeous Sambo.

There are three cats featured this week. Here is the link.

PS---There is potential awesome news that most have not yet heard. Look for an update on the current week thread, hopefully tomorrow.
