I just want to second what Deb said about the catch 22--I wasn't able to get Bandit well regulated until after his dental, and I was doing TR with...
A food is considered low phosphorus if it's less than 250 MG/100 kcal. If your cat has kidney insufficiency or is a senior cat (since many seniors...
I used the topical Frontline Plus for years with Bandit and never had an issue. Maybe just don't shoot in the exact spot where you've applied it for...
Exactly what I would do! With Lantus, it's great to get at least 1 mid-cycle test, but perhaps one or two more if you're able. We do the preshots to...
Bandit LOVED freeze dried salmon so he was very easy to motivate. :-) Any treat that is just freeze dried meat will be diabetic safe, so you might...
This is a great point, it's a bit uncommon (but not unheard of) for a cat to drop that low on .25 units of Lantus. With that 33 on the Alphatrak, I...
Things seem really stressful right now because all of this is new and scary, but once you start getting some more data on your sheet, you'll start to...
I wouldn't discount the impact steroids can have on diabetes. Bandit had been in remission for 5 years when he had to go on prednisolone for...
Steroids can definitely cause transient diabetes and once the cat is off them they don't need insulin anymore. Infection can also cause high BG, and...
I can say from experience that the canned Purina DM food is fine if your cat will eat it, but many cats don't like it because it has a lot of liver...
I thought I'd ask here first before contacting Mars, in case someone already had. Has anyone gotten any As-Fed or Dry Matter values for the CRAVE...
@Marylou and Malika, I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to you--it's been a crazy couple weeks for me. So, the only foods I can think of that...
Has your vet mentioned or talked about treating him for feline asthma at all?...
My go to for is usually wellness core turkey, chicken and liver, and wellness core turkey and duck. They're both about 115 calories per 3 oz can. The...
I'm just saying that not everyone has the luxury of discontinuing it when their (my) choice is using Fortiflora with a very small risk of harm vs the...
I just so happen to have a fine grasp on science and the meaning of studies. But thank you, random person on a internet message board whom I've...
I understand it's icky to think about, but there's no way a packet of Fortiflora could possibly contain enough pentobarbital to have any sort of...
When are you starting the Zofran with him? I would get that on board sooner than later. Nausea is the biggest hurdle to get over after a pancreatitis...
I've had good results with Fortiflora controlling Bandit's recurrent GI issues. Animal digest isn't a great ingredient, but it's not harmful, and I...
A complete poultry intolerance is rough because it's in most low carb foods--but considering you've already ordered the wysong and supplment, I would...
