Our little guy, a cat, was having an upset tummy that seemed to get worse over the weekend. They took such good care of our little guy, and that made us feel at ease with how to ensure he gets better at home. The prices are also very reasonable for same day, after hours veterinarian care. You can’t go wrong!
Carl the dog was disappointed when they said he shouldn’t be eating McDonalds, but… Life of a dog.
After months of blood sugar checks, a low-carb diet, daily Bexacat, and lots of patience, this brave kitty is officially in diabetic remission. 🐾💙Everyone, meet Paco 🙂
Feline diabetes remission means a cat can maintain normal glucose levels without insulin injections, though regular monitoring is still important. Early treatment, weight management, and a high-protein/low-carb diet can greatly improve the chances of remission in cats diagnosed with diabetes.
So proud of this sweet boy and every healthy purr that got us here. #FelineDiabetes #DiabeticCat #CatRemission #PetHealth #RemissionDay #StrongKitty #Bexacat
