Poor Kitty has been unwell since Christmas, and our former tubby tabby is now a shadow of his former self :-( After numerous tests, we discovered that he has diabetes, and he has started on a course of insulin injections. So, last Monday evening at 8pm, Bev and Paul were at the vets learning how to inject Kitty - they started by injecting him with water, but then Paul administered the real insulin injection. Since then, Bev has been doing the injections as she has to be comfortable doing these on her own when Paul is at the racing or working away from home. And as backup, she has given us bears her old Red Cross badges and demonstrated what needs to be done!
Kitty is already looking much better and has slowly started to put on weight. We'll keep you posted on his progress.
