Thank you all. I had to go to sleep as I had to be up early for work so I didnt get to see your replies before I decided. I did shoot, I shot 3.0...
I lost my battle against pancreatitis, but my advice is LOW FAT. Seriously low fat. Boiled chicken or gerber baby food meat low fat. I think the...
I just took Em's sugar right before I shot him, (thank goodness) and he is at a quite low 119. Should I lower his dose? I will be sleeping through...
How stressful that must have been. I get upset and emotional when my pets act like they are suffering. You were brave, but I am glad for you both...
Thank you both so much. :)
I am planning on upping his next dose by .25 unless someone here thinks it is not a good idea. I really need to get his numbers down. I notice the...
I am really wishing you all the best and sending prayers for you and Simba. I also think going up to 4 is worth the risk.
My secret for pilling cats is a syringe full of Gerber babyfood in one of the meat flavors. Squirt a little meat paste in, quickly shove in the pill,...
I had to switch to the OUTSIDE of the ear for Emmitt. When I poke the inside smooth part I almost never get blood. On the outside, the fuzzy side, he...

Thank you, and I believe that. I absolutely see the competence and experience you have accumulated and I am so grateful that so many of you have...
I absolutely will keep checking back to see how you both are doing :)
Sorry I got so emotional. It was one of two worst experiences of my life, I would not wish it on anyone. Thank you for your kind thoughts. <3 Back...
Emmitt is 18 years old and has his fangs left and a couple of the little incisor teeth and thats it. He always had terrible teeth from very young....
I think your vet is grasping at straws with no evidence of what she is claiming. If you are not noticing any of the signs your cat is nauseated and...
I am no expert on diabetes, but I fought a long hard losing battle with chronic pancreatitis ( and something else discovered at necropsy) with my...
What started this whole mess in the first place was that his control on his Lantus was going south. He had had a honeymoon once, maybe two months...
It looks like the good numbers I got I got because of overlapping doses. (Shooting early to try and get my timing back to something better. I had not...
