Ooops, a forgotten shot!



Ok, so I'm not perfect. Even though I have an alarm set on my phone to reminde me to give my kitty cat his insulin syringe every twelve hours, I often forget. Today was one of those days, hectic and stressful.




Just around dinner time, I realized that I had forgotten to give him a prick three hours earlier. Oops.




He didn't even notice the lateness. I think he'll be fine.

Currently Healthy on Insulin

Currently, our diabetic cat is in good health. He receives 5-6 cc of insulin every 12 hours.

Recently, we relocated from the east coast to the west coast and brought our cat along on the four day journey. He was not a happy kitty. Our insulin supply, although kept in the cooler, seemed to lose effect. Either because the insulin had gotten old or perhaps due to the stress of it all, his diabetic symptoms returned.

Finding a new vet in town was a process of research and asking for referrals. Finally, our own vet recommended Banfield at Petsmart. We were quickly and easily able to get him a new prescription of insulin.
