    Hello and welcome to you and Ross. I'm glad you've found FDMB - you could not wish for a better place to learn about feline diabetes and how to help Ross. :)

    Can you let us know which country you're in so that we can recommend some meters for you?

    I am in Canada and the strips for human meters all cost around the same price where I am. I personally use the AT2 pet meter and the Freestyle Lite human meter because both take a very small drop of blood. People in the US most often will use the Relion meters since the cost of the strips is very low.
