Hi, Just wanted to pass along a few more suggestions regarding shots. You might have more success in giving the shot in a different area than the...
Thanks once again for all the congratulations and it's nice to see so many familiar faces! Mikey was at 85 for today's test (I only test him a couple...
Thank you, everyone! Here's the good, sweet boy! [ATTACH]
:otj: I never thought I'd get to post in this forum! :otj: Michelangelo was diagnosed all the way back in 2012 at 6 months old. For the last +10...
Hi Everyone! It's been a while since I've posted, so many of you might not know of Michelangelo. He was diagnosed all the way back in 2012 at 6...
With Finn, it was a matter of trying anything and everything till I got solid poop for the first time in 2 months with the rabbit. It took me 3 vets...
Yes, I adopted Finn from DCiN already diabetic and he was on insulin for at least 7 years (doses ranged from .5u-1.5u of Levemir over his lifetime)....
One of my previous cats, Finnegan, was diagnosed with IBD back in 2021. He passed away recently of unrelated complications but once we got his diet...
I typically shoot in the flank and alternate sides (right side AM, left side PM). This sticky has a great section on "Shot Placement & Overlap: Flank...

Just bought the Premier and will be giving it a try tonight! I threw away* my Prime today after the FOURTH strip still didn't soak up enough blood. I...
Thanks for all this great info! Does the Premier use the same strips as the Prime?
Yes! I accidentally copy/pasted the wrong site. rawfeedingforibdcats.org is the best overall (the other one is great, too, though). A word of...
Hey there! I don't stop by too much anymore but I saw your post and wanted to offer some :bighug: because I also have a diabetic and IBD kitty. Finn...
I've been using the Relion Prime for close to 9 years now (~ a year after Mikey was diagnosed). I feel like in the last year or so, the quality of...
Just wanted to give an update on the Mikey situation. The (third) vet finally got a chance to look at Mikey. This was the best experience ever! It...
Good to know. The vet only prescribed a 30-day supply so we can "re-evaluate dose" if need be. I asked point-blank if they would refill the...
Yeah, the plan is to see how he does on the budesonide for a couple of weeks and either reduce or taper off, if possible. If he's able to taper off,...
Woohoo! Vet just called and it doesn't look like he has EPI so I finally got a steroid script for budesonide! I took Finn to the vet for his IBD the...
