I didn’t see the supplement I used for diarrhea recommended on this thread. It was very effective on my Fritz. It is BM Toneup drops by Petwellbeing. You can purchase from the Petwellbeing website, from Chewy, and from Amazon. Fritz was fighting multiple battles (diabetes, hyperthyroidism...
Hi, Jenny, I just read through this entire thread, and I have recently gone through much of what you are going through. My darling Fritz, 10 years old, was diagnosed with diabetes last July. I home tested, collected urine in a ladle, and tested for ketones, in addition to giving twice daily...
I have never had a problem with World’s Best Litter sticking to fur, and my Maine Coon has a LOT of fur there. Never sticks to their pads either, made from corn,
Precious little Puchi! Having been through absolute hell trying to get Fritz’s diarrhea under control, I can tell you that in his particular case, neither the DiaGel nor the Propectalin worked. So I made it my mission to find something that would, and I succeeded. Petwellbeing BM Toneup Gold...
I am quite surprised that Petplan’s customer service has been a bad experience for you. They have been amazing for me, with Fritz’s diabetes diagnosis. I would call back and hopefully get one of the excellent customer service reps. I guess I just lucked out, but I have had previous claims...
I just submitted Fritz’s diabetes costs to date last week. This included three full workups with blood panel, etc., several tests including fructosamine test, antibiotics, insulin, syringes from the vet, They have already approved everything and reimbursed me. I make sure to write Frtiz’s...
I use Petplan, I think they are in the process of changing the name to Fetch. They cover everything, including naturopathic vets, chiropractic treatments, etc, you tailor your policy to your budget. For a ten year old cat, who has been insured for years, I have a $250 deductible (avg. cost of...
I highly recommend two books by Amelia Kinkade, a world-renowned animal communicator (she works with Queen Elizabeth’s horses). They are “Straight From the Horse’s Mouth” and “The Language of Miracles.” She tells story after story of animals who have crossed over being completely aware of...
Oh, thank you, and here comes life intruding yet again! Now at lunchtime, my diabetic boy and my little tortie who never encountered a food she didn’t like are both refusing to eat two different foods. She threw up twice this morning, highly unusual for her. I’ve given her slippery elm this...
Don’t be too disheartened about him not eating the prescription diet. I have had only one prescription diet mine would eat, and the ingredients were so cheap and awful (first ingredient corn) it gave him diabetes. 🙏🙏🙏 for this baby’s surgery!
Don’t get me wrong, life is tough, it gets to me too, but I have learned a couple of things along the way. My daughter and I have a little phrase - “Let go and let God.“ Whether we can see it or not, He’s got this. When we stop trying to “fix“ everything, when we realize it’s all in His hands...
I love happy endings! This is such great news, and she is so fortunate that she had this surgery. I know you feel a huge sense of relief! Your little princess will be fine now. Thrilled for you both!
Your posts always touch my heart, but this one in particular resonated deeply with me. When my only son was killed 21 years ago, (traffic accident/bicycle, hit and run), I was shattered. There was no peace to be found. I could not bear to be in my own skin. All I did was pace and pray...
Aw, I had a Pepper once, a male. I can tell how much you love your little girl. Of course she is a princess, lol! I know, vet costs are skyrocketing. I have a boy recently diagnosed with diabetes, and all I can say is, thank goodness for pet insurance.
