hello,

My cat, Samba, was just diagnosed with diabetes on 12/31/16. We are still trying to get it under control. He sounds like a man when he pees in his litterbox :D and he is going through a 26lb box of litter every 7-10 days... he is now on 2 units of Lantus twice daily but was formerly on Novolin N for a week. He went from 14lbs to 10. At first, I thought that the weight loss was a good thing because the vet said that he could stand to lose a few, but he kept losing. He is 8 years old. His blood sugar went from 460 on 12/31/16 to 472 on 1/7/17 after a week's worth of shots, so that was a little disconcerting. I love him more than anything in my life, and he still seems quite happy and energetic despite it all. Happy to hear that a forum like this exists :) I have been reading various threads tonight, and it seems like a very nice, knowledgeable, and supportive community. Thanks for having us.

Sarah & sambaman
