Hi there,

Am I being a pest when I keep asking if you are testing for ketones? Or did I miss something and you already answered that?

In case you are interested, there is a post today on health about a cat with ketones. JoJo, a highly experienced person on this board, wrote:

. in the interest of board education if ever anyone sees a newly dx'ed diabetic cat's owner post saying one word about cat not looking good (ie: "feeling blah") and/or reduced appetite and/or withholding insulin due to odd instructions from vet, the immediate post back has to ask if there has been a ketone test done in past few hours. the newly dx'ed are at highest risk of going into DKA and daily ketone testing is a must that for some weird reason is often overlooked in instructions from vet's office that needs to be corrected the second owner joins board and posts. thanks!
