Two things on my mind today.

CAN YOU GIVE PIERRE A FOREVER HOME?
I'm hoping Catsterland can help find a forever home for this very handsome guy. He is listed as diabetic but has been off Insulin since March and is healthy. He is tested frequently to assure his sugar is within normal limits. Pierre is in Annapolis, Maryland and would be delivered to any adopting home so distance is a consideration if you are thinking of adopting him. (His petfinder profile still shows him as diabetic)

If you are interested in Adopting Pierre, please contact his shelter through his petfinder page.

Joy on petfinder.com is 11 and her human died. Joy was the center of her world and is looking for a calm, loving home.

Forum Thread about Pierre (and Joy): Pierre is a Himalayan in need of a home.

Grateful that Morgan the Pirate Gato is up early to alert diabetic Catsters:

If you are using VETSULIN Insulin for your diabetes, call your vet right away. Vetsulin has been recalled. Here are the details from the FDA: VETSULIN (INSULIN) RECALL
You can sign up for FDA Recall notices by email: FDA ANIMAL & VETERINARY RECALLS

Have a pawsome day!

I just want to say that having a diabetic cat is not that difficult to handle. One of our brothers that has passed away was one , and he would get up on the chair and wait for mom to give him his shot in the morning. The shot is nothing to fret about very easy and does not hurt them.

Our brother RIP Mork lived for 8 years with diabetis and passed away at a age of 16.

Just incase someone was concerned about giving shots..

I just noticed that there is an ad at the top of the page advertising Vetsulin.Why Catster?
