How does one check a cat's blood sugar? Do you have to take them to the vet every time?

Good question I'd like to know that myself.
I don't suppose it's like with a human where you can prick the end of a thumb to do it.


Not yet sure how the test is administered (will have to grill the vet on that at the next visit on Friday). Right now just trying to educate myself on the condition. Lots of advocacy for regular (daily) checks. For now though...while determining his dosage...I take him into the vet for his checks.

I'm just curious and you know what happens to the cat.... lol

Yes I do.
I can't imagine a cat will be happy with wherever a needle is used to be honest, In fact I would be very wary of attempting it on a certain moggy that's close by.



"Moggy"?
Well, he's been a real trooper about his insulin shots, so hopefully he would be bear up as well for the blood tests. Alls I know is that I can't be running him to the vet every week or so for this. Sure, the check is free, but Clint and I have to put up with 2 or 3 days for Nixie hissing at him because of the new smell he's picked up...>sigh<...

So Luxor, been seeing some headlines about Scottish independence online. How are things looking on that topic from the inside?

I'll have to get back to you about that, just got a house full of unexpected visitors.
The start and end to every story is the same. But what comes in between you have yourself to blame.

Well that was a nice evening with my visitors, pity 2 of them brought their laptops with them. 
Now where was I?

Ah yes.
How well it's looking depends on where you get your news from. Surprise, surprise.
I've notice a change locally. Many people that were in the no camp have changed their mind and are now in the yes camp. You see it with the amount of "yes" stickers in car windows etc. There's still a lot of undecided folk as far as I can tell and I think it is them that will swing the vote one way or the other. Other folk with opposing views to mine will tell you differently though.

You can never have too much information.

You missed a trick there, you could have stuffed them with garlic and popped them in your Martini, couldn't be worse than your olives.

Yum, I love bleach-soaked eyeballs.
I'm glad I had already eaten before I arrived here.

Bleach soaked, garlic-stuffed eyeballs? Isn't that the traditional side dish served with haggis? People with glass palates shouldn't cast stones... :P

It was pretty plain and boring really, no appetite.

I second that revulsion. You know it must be bad when Luxor and I agree that it's bad... :lol:
