Julie....
I am so glad to hear Cookie is doing so well!!!!!!! Your dread of diabetes and how you will deal wiht it and how she will react is totaly normal...even when people are diagnosed. And the way you have come to realize you can deal with it is a pretty much normal reaction also. I knew if you could get Cookie stabalized you would get here. And I am not surprised she doesn't mind the injections...she really doens't feel them very much.

BTW...could you please tell me more about the catkins diet? My 11 m/o kitten, Tiny...the one with eosnophilic granuloma complex...is starting to gain alot of weight from being on steriods. We're not sure yet if we will be able to get her off of the steriods or not yet. Dr. Tobin had suggested putting her on a diet of canned to reduce the carbs but she just will not eat the canned. If Hills has a high protein/low carb diet in dry maybe that would help control her weight better???? She likes chicken....do they have a chicken formula? And do you have to get this at the vet or do pet stores carry it?
thanks for your help!
