Hello from Beth and Herbert

Hello, I am Beth and I'm here because my nine-year-old cat Herbert just got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Herbert is 9 years old and he is the best cat. I am a ball of anxiety right now but hopefully I can calm down. There are many great resources here and everyone seems so kind.

 

Welcome! We all started out as balls of anxiety, so we understand where you’re coming from! Come over to the Main Health Forum and ask any questions you have.

 

Thank you, Sharon! I just did it.

 

Hi! Goofy & I joined yesterday. Welcome. So many great, knowledgeable, and caring people here to help

 

Hello to you as well, and thanks for the greeting! Many best wishes to you and Goofy. I need to go fix my signature and set up a spreadsheet--kudos to you for getting that done so quickly.

 

Welcome Beth and Herbert! My sweet Ebby lived 19 years (6 years diabetic) thanks to this forum. You're in good hands!

 

Thank you so much--that's a great endorsement. I'm so glad she had such a long life.

 

Welcome Beth and Herbert. Sharon14 is right, we all started out worried and unsure. This is a good place to find the information and support you are looking for. Can't wait to see a pic of Herbert!

 

I can relate! My boy was diagnosed Friday This group is awesome!

 

Thanks for the kind hello. Finally got him in my avatar. Best of luck to you and Mr. Kitty. Years ago, I had a Miss Kitty. She was a great cat!

 

Thank you! I have put him in the avatar. It is great to hear from others who are going through this, and I appreciate everyone's generosity.

 

What a sweet boy! "look deeply into my eyes, you are getting sleepy, very sleepy" LOL

 

I like the regal look Idjit has as well! He's beautiful.

 

Thank you, he thinks he's pretty special alright. He has us firmly wrapped around his big paw and he's adored.
