FIRST!!! DO NOT BEAT UP YOURSELF!!! Second, I have had several cats that had pancreatitis. They all did nicely with the meds and special food. My question(and I am not being funny), how did Chloe survive a year with pancreatitis?? When she went to the vet in the past year, did not the vet take a general chemistry to check enzymes??? Just curious....I hope Chloe will be fine and I will light a candle for her...
