Do you have a diabetic cat, or one you suspect might have diabetes? It’s much more common that you might think. If fact, 3 times as many cats as dogs develop diabetes. Cats are so skilled at hiding signs of illness that the early stages of the disease can sometimes be hard to spot. Signs include increased thirst, increased hunger, and excessive urination. It is estimated that 1 in 500 cats will become diabetic at some point in their lifetime. The major contributing factor for cats developing diabetes is obesity. In this podcast with our resident veterinarian, Dr. Kelly Cairns, we’ll answer these common questions about Feline Diabetes, and more: 1. What are the signs of feline diabetes? 2. Is there a cure for feline diabetes? 3. Can feline diabetes be prevented? 4. Will I need to feed my cat a special diet? 5. Is this a condition that I can manage at home, or will my cat need to go to the vet for insulin injections?
