Please note
that the "Susie Diabetic Cat" pages are no
longer being updated.
I plan to remove them in 2011

Thank you for visiting these
pages. If you have not seen these pages before, there is a
good chance that you have a cat that has just been diagnosed with
diabetes, you are not sure what it all means - for you or for your
cat - and you don't know who to ask to find out. You have
searched the internet to see what's available and you have arrived
here.
That is exactly where I was back
in 1999 when my then 10 year old cat Susie was diagnosed.
There were no books that I could find and there were few websites,
none of which at the time seemed to have just the sort of
information that I was looking for, presented in the way I wanted
to find it.
Nowadays, there are many more
sites available on the net and you can try all sorts of keywords
and combinations in any of the search engines to find some.
If the pages here help you to find out about diabetes in cats and
to come to terms with what it means, then they have been a
success.
Susie lived to be over 16 years
old before she finally passed away in January 2006. She had
been diabetic for more than 6 years and for most of that time she
had enjoyed her advancing years in good health, with her diabetes
under good control, and some extra care and attention from me.
