I thought I was having to refill the fountain a lot and that there were larger urine spots in the litter box than normal but I chalked it up to «oh it a really hot summer » or me being paranoid or imagining things. They share the fountain and litter boxes so I couldn’t tell if one was the cause.

Sounds a lot like diabetes. It's very manageable. He'll do fine, I'm certain.

I have a real soft spot for those gray tabbies. This girly was with us for 12 years. 😻

That look Peaches is giving is iconic.

The most photogenic cat — ever! 😁😍

And my favorite b&w! 😻

Yeah my parents cat Obi was diabetic and other than a few hypoglycemia scares he lived for years with it just fine

I’m more freaked about the acute hyperglycemia and potential DKA

Sounds scary. That BGL is pretty high. I'm sure they can manage it. Fluids and insulin, I would think? He looks pretty alert.

That pic is not from today but he had been alert all day, eating just fine, no vomiting, which all made me think I was being paranoid and overreacting and we could visit my vet Tuesday, but I’m glad I ordered the glucometer. Though now I wish I’d just brought him in earlier instead of waiting.

They'll get him sorted out. Always a nightmare, though.
