A Vet Explains Cat Diabetes

A vet from PetPlan explains the common symptoms and treatments for cat diabetes. It is acknowledged that cat diabetes is a very common illness but no mention is made of the reasons why. We say because of  a poor unnatural diet and a sedentary lifestyle!

Provided there are no complications the treatment is really quite straight forward. That is managing the diabetes with insulin and changing diet to a high protein, low carbohydrate  one.

Many cats do go into remission provided the diabetes is managed. The Vet talks about insulin injections but no mention is made of home testing. It is important to home test to ensure that the correct dosage of insulin is being administered.
