Living with a Burmese cat that has been diagnosed with feline diabetes can be a process especially when first adjusting to medication routines and blood sugar monitoring. If you have questions about testing your cat’s blood sugar, talk to your vet. Your vet can help you learn to check your cat’s blood sugar on your own at home. Some owners of diabetic cats or diabetic dogs have found that using a handheld glucometer is one of the easiest ways to test blood sugar levels. The handheld glucometer is technically designed to be used by people, but many cat owners have found them to be easy to use as well as significantly cheaper than pet meters. Handheld glucometers can be bought at most pharmacy stores. As a general rule of thumb, you should compare your at home readings with readings from your veterinarian Northwest Indianapolis, IN to ensure accuracy.
