Hip Hip Hooray!!! It has been a month and counting since Webber's last insulin injection. I still test on occasion to make sure he is within normal ranges. So far so good. His coat is getting better all the time. I finally made the decision to switch their food to Wellness and stop feeding the Petsmart "Sophisticat" because I think it is better for them. Wellness had no grain products, no animal by-products and the flavors I am feeding are low carb. Plus it doesn't smell as bad as some of the other stuff. Whew---some of those others would literally make me gag some early mornings. lol
I have also introduced the Raw diet, but Lacey and Webber are the only ones to eat it. However, the company has had two recalls since I tried the darn things. The first bag was given to my by my neighbor, I fed a little and they liked it. Then I find out that there is a recall for the bag I have. I hang onto it for a few weeks and finally go and get an exchange. Fed a little and they liked it, two days later the company recalls that bag. Jeez. I am going to try again....third times a charm right?
Don't spend as much time on the message board anymore. DH said I was obsessed and I guess I was. I try to just get on for short periods to check on the kitties and beans that I have been following. I also check in the Health section to see if there are any newbies that needs some help. I remember too well how scary that diagnosis is. You would think you had been diagnosed yourself!
I think it is time to feed the kiddos so I am off til next time.
Present: This blog will be a combination of feline health posts, pictures etc. The Past: This is my blog of Webber's journey with feline diabetes. We hope that this journey for my sugarbaby will not last long. We hope that with diet and a short bout of strict insulin injections he will conquer it all!

Hi Paige! So glad that Webber is still doing well without insulin. I don't get to the message board that much anymore myself. I try to check in every now and then to see which kitties are going OTJ and to see how everyone is doing, but that's about it. I know what you mean about being obsessed with the board - I know I was when Mally was on insulin. It's a great place to be when you're taking care of a diabetic kitty on insulin.
ReplyDeleteI hope all is well with you!!!!
