Hello to All

[Sarah & Jackie]

Hello Everyone. I'm Sarah and My Baby, Jackie Boy was diagnosed on 04/06/2015, Easter Sunday. I have started a couple of threads in the main forum looking for some more ideas of what all info you need from me to get started. There is so much to learn......

Hi there.. I'm pretty new myself. My Tiggy was diagnosed on 4/14/15, so after my initial crying and hair-pulling, I was able to find this great site. Lots of great resources and wonderful people to help! Welcome aboard!

Welcome to FDMB, the best place you never wanted to be.

There are 4 things you'll need to manage your kitty's diabetes:
- You - without your commitment, the following won't work
- Low carb over the counter canned or raw diet, such as Friskies pates. See Cat Info for more info,
- A long-lasting insulin such as ProZinc, Lantus, BCP PZI, or Levemir
- And home blood glucose monitoring with an inexpensive human glucometer such as the WalMart Relion Confirm or Target Up and Up (the pet ones will break your budget!)
