Thanks, Heidi. That will be very informative and helpful.

Galaxy and I have a lot to learn as we see what happens with this!

The fact that Galaxy is diabetic probably explains why she has been peeing on your bed. I hope the new diet will help, but if not, she will surely be thrilled to celebrate Christmas eating some food she loves. I would have thought she needed something with less fat in.


I send her comfort and hugs… to you, too!

I'm glad that the vet let you borrow the glucometer for testing at home.
Glucose curves, done at the vet over the course of 8-10 hours, are a lot less accurate, because cats get stressed out at the vet, and therefore their blood glucose will go up, diabetes or not.
