Larry and Kitties
Very Active Member
I adopted Twigie almost two years ago as a recently diagnosed but not yet treated diabetic kitty. She was a beautiful, purebred Scottish Fold. She was a breeder kitty and was spayed late in life. At first it was hard getting blood from those little ears. However, they learned to bleed very easy. She did not like any of my other kitties and wold attack them if they go close. However, she liked my dog Raggy. It was easy to get her diabetes under control. I first tried Lantus but got little response. I then tried N. She was one of the few kitties that did well on N. I could maintain her BGs between 125 and 80 almost all the time except recently. I would routinely give her 2 units with a PS of 120 but she would only drop to a low of 80.
Last October she was diagnosed with mammary cancer with multiple tumors in both chains. Treatment was not recommended. She was fine but slowed as the tumors grew. Some of the tumors finally ulcerated and her appetite went down hill. I was time to say goodbye. I said goodbye at 1:35 PM today. It was a peaceful crossing. Life will go on.
