We adopted Claire over two years ago knowing she had diabetes and FIV with the intention of just loving this little lady for her last years. About a...
Thank you all! Looks like we will be switching to a ReliOn confirm/micro. I will just go on and buy it all at Walmart in store and look for cheaper...
Hi! I feel certain this has been asked a hundred times, but I have had trouble finding an answer on this site. I have a freestyle lite meter that I...
Thanks for the suggestions. We don't use fragrance in our house, so no febreze or unstoppables for us. I think I'll get another air purifier for...
Wanted to update this thread. Yesterday our bag of YAZ arrived. I filled two pie dishes with about 3 cups each per the FCAF guide. One is upstairs...
@Kris & Teasel Thank you! Im glad her numbers seem to stay pretty consistent and she isn't showing any signs of diabetes other than her BG readings....
thanks! Considering she is doing very well (playful, no diabetes symptoms, no ketones) and her diabetes has probably not been controlled for some...
I am thinking you're right. I got a sample of Young Again and left it out overnight instead of the EVO. Her AMPS was the lowest it's been at 240. So...
Sharps container from walmart. $3. When it's full I close the lid, wrap the top in shipping tape, and put in my regular garbage. Where I live our...
Also to add - we have her at .75 U now and are her numbers are coming down. Nadir today was 220 which is the lowest I've seen so far.
I emailed the shelter to get more info about her diabetes. I was told "two years ago" when we adopted her, but that was from memory not records....
@Yong I had not seen this yet. Thanks!
@Yong no friskies on that list! :( I'll look into it later on. Thankfully, with just two cats, we can probably swing more expensive food if...
Good point on wet food for kidney function. It also makes it easier to give her shots and they just love it. Either way we will be trying out YA as...
YES to the warm rice sock! We just started testing. The first couple of days I did it without the warmth. It has made a big difference!!! Now when I...
I have been trying to find this information online. What is considered remission? #s under 300 without insulin? or #s near the normal range for a...
Also a side note - in my sheet comments I have "fur shot" twice. These are times I am pretty sure I got the insulin in her but not positive. 1/2U is...
My understanding is that a raw diet is not a safe choice for an FIV cat. Some owners choose to risk possible bacteria exposure for the health...
Hi everyone! Today I was able to get more tests in with Claire. For those I haven't met (or anyone with a memory like my own) we adopted Claire 2...
@JanetNJ are you still free feeding YA in combination with FF? I see that CC is in remission and wasn't sure if you're still feeding FF if not giving...
