Did you know that some diabetic cats like the Bengal of other breeds may need different types of medications for treatment of their diabetes? Your vet can tell you that some cats do well on oral medication while others will require insulin injections. If your cat needs insulin injections your vet can show you how to administer them. A few tips to remember in the process include not reusing syringes. Never administer if there is an air bubble in the syringe. Release the insulin back in the bottle and try again. If you inject your cat on the right side in the morning, alternate and inject her left side at night. Always reward your cat with a treat or a gentle stroke of the fur to ensure her that she is OK and doing a good job. For additional tips and suggestions on insulin injections, please call your veterinary clinic Newmarket, ON.
