I don't have a cat with diabetes but
I have a cat who is such a wonderful person to have in my life and a now adult son with type I diabetes.
My heart goes out to you all for the love and devotion you show to your pets in treating a disease that can be very difficult to manage. After years of adjusting to this diagnosis for my, then, teenage son I have some idea of the difficulties you face - he doesn't have claws but he can be pretty uncooperative and aggressive when having a hypo or high bsls.
I don't know anything about the idiosyncracies of feline diabetes, is there type I and II as there is in humans? also, is the incidence rapidly increasing as it is with juvenile IDDM? if so any thoughts on what the cause of increased incidence might be?
Just really wanted to share the love with you all and say thank you for loving your gorgeous felines enough to manage this as best you can
