Hi! I'm Marie. I am a single 70 year old.....I rounded that down...
My life pretty much revolves around my pets. I have two cats and several dogs.....oh, also just found a baby bird in back yard yesterday. Callie and Miss Kitty are my cats. Callie is a calico and was recently diagnosed with diabetes. Miss Kitty was abandoned when her owner was put into a nursing home. I didn't know about her until a neighbor mentioned calling Animal Control to "get rid of that cat"..........aargh. I went down with some food and oh, she was so tiny, so starving, I was so upset about the whole situation I just picked her up and added her to my zoo. Anyway, I ramble. Callie is now on ProZinc and script food. The price of the ProZinc is unbelievable! But I've been getting some wonderful advice on this forum and that's helped so much! My dog, Sam, is also diabetic so the vet seems to assume I know what I'm doing. ha. The next time I see him I will tell him every critter is different....Sam doesn't even look up when he gets his insulin, but Callie fooled me. She was good the first two times, then all of a sudden.... no, she wasn't having any of that nuisance. I'm working on it though. She has to have it so that's all there is to it. I do go on and on, so sorry. I just wanted to introduce myself and say thank you to everyone who has welcomed me and given me much needed advice. I'm so glad I found this forum!
