Libre monitor for my Maine Coon

[Angela with Chloe]

Chloe my Maine Coon has been diabetic for a few years, but may have to go on to a Libre sensor. She's always been very sensitive to anybody touching her back or for that matter stomach, paws, tail... you get the message! so I think she's going to hate it. Also she's a beautiful cream mackerel tabby and I'm wondering has anybody had this fitted in such a way that it doesn't show? May be so the long hair covers it. I know the most important thing is her health and she's not being shown, but it just seems a shame to have a big bald patch on such a beautiful looking cat.

Hi Angela, feel free to read over the link below which we have put together to help new Libre users.

The most important thing, as you’ve mentioned, is monitoring the glucose of your kitty.

I hope this helps
