We took our cat to the vet today because of a urinary infection. Only to find out that she has diabetes. Panic set in!!! Can we afford it? Should we have her put to sleep so she won't have to suffer? We were just so overwhelmed. And didn't know where to turn. So we went online. After reading about this group. And now we've decided that we're going to beat this thing. I'm not well off by any means. So this is going to be tough. But we love Cocoa. As she is a big part of our lives.
She'll be going on insulin. And a low carb diet.(15.3 lbs.) First I'd like to ask every and anyone about food. They're trying to sell me a 8 lb. bag of dry food for $45. And from what I read is that there are several other brands of dry food that are low carb. And a lot cheaper. Ultimately we're going to get her on a total wet food diet. But I've read that we need to wean her off of the dry. So any help you can offer would really help us in our struggle. Thank you all!!! confused_cat
 
Hi and welcome to the board.

I am going to copy this over to the "Feline Health" forum so that people see it. The announcements forum is for the folks who administer the board can post announcements for everyone to see. It isn't a forum that people normally look at in order to find members who need help or advice. Here's a link to where your thread will be, and people can see it and reply to you there.
