At first I thought this post was going to be about the folks at Dogs4Diabetics (http://www.dogs4diabetics.com/) – they train dogs to recognize the symptoms of diabetes and provide assistance (bark bark!)

Interesting stories about diabetic pets with diabetic owners, especially love the bit about insurance!

Hi Amy,
A good article about feline diabetics. There is a similar number of diabetic dogs. The stats are similar. Approximaely 1 in 7 dogs and cats will be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and require insulin shots. My Maggie was diagnosed before her tenth birthday. We are both motoring along. After Maggie was a diabetic for over 18 months, the blood work came back and the Vet, without thinking said … ‘I guess you do know what to do”. She had an A1c of 5.9. As always have a great day.

I’ve got a diabetic cat. I think he’s jealous and just wants an insulin pump like mine.

He’s 12 and has had it for a year now. I switched him to wet food (less carbs!) and give him 6 units of Lantus in the morning. I test through his ear. He typically runs around 200. If I give him another unit, he hovers around 60.

The best of all: I put everything through my insurance. HA!

Ironically, my cat’s diabetes led to me diagnosing my diabetes – the vet was having trouble determing whether her blood sugar was controlled on visits there, so we got a glucometer to use on her…and as I was figuring out how to use it, I tested my blood sugar, which was 365. I had been having some symptoms before that but must have been ignoring them. I was lucky to diagnose myself before I got really sick. On a funny note, when the cat was diagnosed, the vet asked “does she have any family history of diabetes?”. she came from the pound!

We had a Bouvier who became diabetic (me – totally oblivious to the lethargy, polyuria, thirst increasing, etc. which, as a diabetic, I should have caught). My wife likes to remind me that on one injection a day, the dog was better controlled than I ever have been. Even on a pump!

She was a great dog.
