What choice of treatment do cat owners have when their pet is diagnosed with feline diabetes?
My choice is to change to a 100% raw meat diet – no kibble and no cans with cereals listed as an ingredient.
Since my cat began his new diet this week, I have noticed that his thirst has returned to normal and he is starting to eat normally.
His fur is looking in better condition.
Perhaps eating a 100% raw meat diet is more expensive than processed foods, but it is healthier for our pets.
When I was growing up in Australia, we fed our cat “Timothy Titus” on kangaroo meat.
He wasn’t allowed inside so he would have supplemented his diet on prey.
He had a long and healthy life.
The other choice of treatment is with insulin. This can also be expensive.
And it requires a dedicated owner who can give food and injections at specific times of day.
