Meet sweet little Dino. Here he is enjoying some cuddles and getting his blood sugar levels checked.
Feline diabetes can occur in 1:100 to 1:500 cats. The 2 most common signs noted by owners are weight loss and increased thirst and urination.
Treatment of feline diabetes involves dietary management and regular insulin injections that are generally well tolerated by the patient.
๐พ Meet Cookie! ๐พ
Cookie, our sweet 6-year-old Bull Arab, came in today for an anal gland expression and was originally booked for sedation. But with the amazing teamwork of Dr. Teri, Nurse Tanisha, and Cookieโs love for a cream cheese-filled lick mat, we were able to work through the procedure without sedation using our fear-free handling methods! ๐๐ช
Weโre so proud of Cookie for her bravery and so grateful to our team for their gentle approach that helps pets stay calm and happy during treatments.
Great job, Cookie! ๐ฅฐ๐
At Hammond Park Vet Clinic, our staff are committed to making each visit as fear free as possible. Kruz was so happy nibbling on treats that he didn't even notice his pedicure was in progress!
