Mungo update 12

[were_gopher]

Dose up to 4 units AM, 3 units PM. Checking out diabetic diet kibbles and hoping the pet shop will take back the unopened 4k sack of senior kibble we picked up last week.

I hope you manage to get diet sorte and his dosage leveled out soon.

The vet suggested Hills Science Diet which Mungo always turns his nose up at but Royal Canin, which he eats at the moment, do a diabetic formula so I'm hoping we will be able to get that.

The forums I read on dealing with diabetic cats didn't have many good things to say about the Hills Science Diet anyway. Royal Canin was regarded more highly.

I had Kosh on Applaws, as it is quite high-protein for a dry food, and as with human diabetics, a certain element of carbohydrate control is a good thing.

I think the vet said Hills partly because that's what they have in stock. There's a place a couple of miles away which we go to occasionally for fish tank supplies that stocks Applaws so I'll check it out if he doesn't take to the Canin. Thanks for the suggestion.
