If your American Wirehair or other feline friend has been diagnosed with feline diabetes, be sure to consult with your vet about long-term care, medications and overall treatment. For many American Wirehairs, insulin injections will be required. Your vet can show you how to administer the injections. A few tips to remember in the process include not reusing syringes. Never administer if there is an air bubble in the syringe. Release the insulin back into the bottle and try again. If you inject your American Wirehair on the right side in the morning, alternate and inject her left side at night. If your American Wirehair does not cooperate, talk to your vet about making adjustments to the way you administer the injections. Always reward your American Wirehair with a treat or a gentle stroke of the fur to ensure her that she is OK and doing a good job. Talk with your vet clinic Middletown, DE for additional information.
