Big hello from michigan!!

Hey everyone! My name is Randi.
My sweet boy, Effy, was just diagnosed as diabetic last Wednesday. I'm still trying to deal with the guilt and feelings over his diagnosis. But very happy to find this site! I have no other cat momma friends so it's been hard not talking about this with anyone. My parents are kind of thrown off about me deciding to treat this as my boy is getting older. He's 11, and I don't think that constitutes as a reason to NOT treat him. I'm willing to do whatever it takes but have so many questions. I'm feeling very worried after trying almost all the vets in my town I still haven't found one that I feel comfortable and connect with on a personal level. So like I said, I'm super happy to find this site, you guys know what's up and i'm happy i'll have a community to come to. I'll be posting in the health forum after this for some answers to my smaller questions but figured i'd come do the intro first! Thanks for reading my crazy rant, lol!

Welcome! 11 isn't old at all! Potentially has many years ahead! We are here if you have any questions

 

Welcome, Randi and Effy!

 

Welcome Randi and Effy!

 

Welcome!! I think I might have thought 11 was old once upon a time, but there are plenty of kitties here who are years past that, so I've learned my lesson.
