My cat is elderly, just to get that out of the way. She's not quite 10 yet, but she's up there in age. Despite being a healthy and active cat, she's always been slightly underweight according to veterinarian standards. Within the last month, she's lost that pep in her step and has experienced significant weightloss. I thought, for a while, that maybe it just hurt to chew her food, so I started giving her moist food. Of course, she ate that right up. However, I found her one morning in my bathroom, lying on her side, breathing very heavily, and basically unresponsive. I took her to the vet, and she was diagnosed with feline diabetes. I have to administer daily insulin shots along with feeding her special food... which is, of course, eating my bank account. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any budget-friendly pet foods or any little at-home remedies that could help? Suggestions? I know it's a long shot, but it never hurt to ask...

The best possible thing for you to do is to join the Yahoo group for felinediabetes. You just go to http://www.yahoogroups.com put in a search for felinediabetes and request membership. There you will find people experienced in dealing with the problem, tips on find low-cost supplies, diet, and much support as you deal with this disease and do the best for your cat.
I am a member of many groups - cancer, homeopathy, raw diet etc. and that is where you will get the best information from people experience in dealing with the diabetes.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.
Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Don't know of anything you can do at home. Treating feline diabetes is not cheap or easy. Blood glucose levels have to monitored regularly. It does help to feed a high fiber diet. There are several on the market. Ask your vet for other options for food perhaps. Regular feeding times are just as important.
