I'm no help for your kitty, but I did have a dog that had diabetes.
Once the insulin dose is determined, it can be fairly routine to control. Bear lived for 5 years with diabetes. His diet was controlled by type and amount and he got 2 shots a day, 12 hours apart. I understand that cats can be controlled with one shot a day, but dogs cannot.
There is a diabetes board for pets that may help you. Try:
