Diabetes in Cats
Managing diabetes > Checkups
Regular veterinary checkups help identify changes in your pet’s condition.
Diabetes can affect a cat differently over time, even after a long period of stability. While you may feel confident in your ability to care for your diabetic cat, visiting your veterinarian regularly will help you to successfully manage this condition over time. With a chronic condition like diabetes, it is important to stay in close touch with your veterinarian and the clinic staff. You can rely on them to answer all of your questions and help you as you learn to manage your cat’s diabetes successfully.
Pets whose diabetes is under control have normal thirst and urination, normal appetite, stable weight, and normal activity levels, and are less likely to develop complications of diabetes.
