What are the warning signs if your cat is having diabetes

Cats suffer from diabetes. People similar cats can suffer the effects of diabetes. Unlike humans, cats can not tell us to be uncomfortable in any way, to make more, the cat has a high tolerance of pain and go unnoticed, there is a pain for several months, therefore it is important we learn to see subtle changes that show a cat when they are sick.
Symptoms to look out for can be explained by other problems it is important to seek professional help if you are worried now.
- The change of appetite could be an early symptom of diabetes. The gain or loss is the same way. - Weakness in back legs and overall lethargic movement, especially if not normal. - Smells bad breath. Most cats are stinky breath is worth asking the advice though. - Your cat is urinating more often pay particular attention to it if the recording is possible?
These are some symptoms that could mean your cat is suffering from diabetes. If you believe this is your cat, do not worry too much! Had he checked with local vets. I would also suggest trying a test for sugar in the urine. You can do it at home and there are many kits and advice online that can help.
High fat diets are a safe way for your cat to become diabetic, high protein diets can help, but seek advice from your veterinarian as protein can also cause other diseases, so be careful as a lot of canned cat food is high levels of fat. Just because it's melted and fun does not mean its good for him.
Help ASPCA adopting healthy diet for your cat, check the label before buying your cat food. The American Association of Feed Control officials (AAFCO) label of the can is a good indication that this diet is good for your cat. Yes, cost more but worth it.
Cat diabetes is treatable and in many cases your cat to get a good quality of life. There is no cure, but can be managed, even within the budget. It can be overwhelming at first, the amount of information online in particular, is staggering, so I will finish by saying, get professional help from a veterinarian if you are unsure and afraid of what do.
