Duchess is diabetic again

[cjsmith]

Well, dang. Here we go again: Duchess is diabetic. Her remission didn't last long! Poor kitty. (Poor my wallet.)

Well, ok, maybe Duchess wouldn't be unhappy if she understood the news. This will mean kitty treats twice a day.

Get that cat out jogging, will you? ;)

hahahaha! Actually, I pretty much expected this test to show diabetes, because she's been dropping weight again. Much more of this and she's going to be the feline equivalent of a runway model.

If you don't get some weight back on her, she'll never find work in Spain. (Apparently, Rome and London are still fine with overly-skinny cats on the (ahem) catwalk).

And Paris will never change. Oh well, she still has lots of career options ahead of her. :-)

Good point. I bet even the cats in Paris are anorexic. (Can you imagine a cat not eating, in order to maintain her waistline? No, me neither. Snubbing the fish because she really wanted chicken, yes. But maybe Parisian Pussycats are different.)

Personally, I'd rather see her fat and happy, and you on the other side of the world from all the needles. :)

Skinny and happy works for me too, as long as she's healthy either way. At least I'm getting good with the needles. I hope that her diabetes remains under control enough that she lives a normal span with good quality of life.
