Hi, newly diagnosed cat here

[Mickc79]

Hi everyone,

Our cat, Fluff, was diagnosed the other day and today we got given her medication and new diet routine.

It's all quite traumatic to be honest. Very sad, but, I'm sure we'll all get through it fine.

Anyway, hello

Welcome! We can help and we all understand the trauma of hearing that diagnosis. Please post on the main health forum and let us know what insulin has been prescribed and what dose. Will you be testing blood glucose at home? We're big proponents of that.

Welcome Mickc and Fluff
Definitely recommend home testing, it's the best tool in our FD kitty tool belt! Here is the link to Spreadsheet instructions: http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/fdmb-spreadsheet-instructions.130337/
