Jellicoe received a Brave Heart award from our vets. He is very proud!
JELLICOE 
This cute cat is Jellicoe, and he also has diabetes like a few of our other brave hearts
He was diagnosed during a severe medical emergency called DKA using up one of his nine lives for sure…
As you can see, we’ve had several diabetic cases this year, and it’s because it is a very common disease, in fact diabetes is one of the most common hormonal disorders found in cats. It mostly affects middle aged to older cats and causes a marked thirst, hunger and weight loss
Jellicoe’s owners are really happy to have him back, although needing to give him insulin every day, but they report that HE IS THE LIVELIEST HE´S BEEN
Jellicoe is always very brave and patient throughout all his visits and whether that be in hospital or for recheck appointments!
We are so happy for you Jellicoe
My little Rosie seems to be in good health, she drinks maybe a bit more, it depends, but her fur is shining, she is slim but not skinny and goes well on her litter box. As she will be 16 in May I keep an eye on her, but she behaves exactly like the cat in the Rapsody song ! I have to wear earplugs because Madame plays and makes strange loud noises and then she sleaps the whole day !
ReplyDeleteHi Jellicoe - you're giving us all great pleasure, while your owners are also so proud ... well done - keep on going and living life to the full - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteWell done Jellicoe. I wouldn't like to have to give my cat shots every day. I'd need two extra people to hold her! Luckily she doesn't need them.
