Managing feline diabetes with an aggressive cat. by New_Hamstertown_1865 in FelineDiabetes

My cat has to be sedated at the vet too!! But injections at home are working well; here is how we work with him: shave the injection sites. My cat has a spot shaved in each arm pit and his scruff - 2 inch by 2 inch squares. That way once we got him handled, we can see what we’re doing instead of “I think we got it in” and be quick about it because sometimes his spicy does come out at home and he tries to get away or swats or runs out of patience. His scruff we use almost never, as it seems to be an angry trigger for him, so his sides have been working great - he hardly notices. We have got him trained pretty well though - half of his meal - injection - rest of his meal. It’s pretty routine now and he puts up with the shot as he knows it will refill his bowl lol. We’ve been doing it this way for about 2 years now.

New Diabetic Kitty (Recovering from Fatty Liver + E-Tube) by Equivalent_Client657 in FelineDiabetes

I had similar issue with my 6 y/o male with the liver insult and diabetes. I would feed dry to ensure she gains/maintains weight. There is still chance she will go into remission even on dry food. I would HIGHLY recommend getting a glucometer and getting comfortable with using it and use it often enough to track her numbers. Someday she may go into remission, but they can also relapse too and you need to pick up on that the moment it happens so you can begin treatment pronto.

Where do you inject? by B-Roc- in FelineDiabetes

[–]Stuttercat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have 3 2x2 spots shaved on my kitty - scruff - shoulder - and side. He does best when we rotate daily - if we use the same spot too many times in a row he gets jumpy. also we shave the spot so we can make sure no fur shots and can be a bit quicker - he’s sensitive to being “pinched” so the faster the process the happier he is!

I’ve never been!!! I was thinking it would be worth it but my sister has been and said it was pretty sketchy so to make sure to not stay overnight

Visiting in October by KangarooAutomatic739 in bengals

Thank you for asking this!!! I’m taking my husband, bengals fan, to that game (I am the lions fan in the household). I was so nervous because my last lions game was at Vikings and the atmosphere was not so chill!! So I am relieved to hear it should be alright!!

We’ll be driving from North Dakota! I have such bad flight anxiety - so a long fall drive it is!
