Hello everyone,
I spent a lot of qualty time here in 2009/10 with my diabetic kitty Basil. He went into remission and stayed there the rest of his life. Now, his sister Rosie seems to be diabetic.
I say "seems" since we are awaiting the results of a fructosamine test before declaring her diabetic.
Rosie is 19 and NOT the cooperative kitty Basil was. She also has mild kidney disease.
I think I will probably be back in the Lantus forum shortly. Is 19 and a half too old to hope for remission?
Unlike Basil, who was eating dry food at diagnosis, we dont have the magic switch to wet to jumpstart us. But I can eliminate all the "in gravy" varieties of Fancy Feast. Sigh.
