For the past 2 weeks she has drinking water like there's no tomorrow and urinating so much in her litter box that I had to clean it everyday.

I suspected that it mght be diabetis, but the Vet confirmed it today. :(

Now I have to give her 2 shots a day for the rest of her life. Between her and I, I would have thought I'd be diabetic first.

She's not going to be happy.

I have to take her back in the morning. They are going to do a couple more tests and then give her a shot of insulin and monitor her all day long.

She knows when I don't feel well (Nurse Cat) and also, she gets very protective when someone knocks on the door or comes into the house. (Guard Cat.)

Before FedEx changed drivers, she would run to the door and give this low gutteral growl at the FedEx Lady.

I had to leave her at the Vet's today, so they could run more tests. Everything pointed to Diabetes. They gave her a shot of insulin late this morning and she responded really well. They actually gave her a little too much, so they cut the dose in 1/2 for me now. I gave her a shot tonight.

The vet said that they caught it early (no sing of pancreatic disease.) She said there's no reason that she should be back to her usual self and live long. (She's 11 years old.)

(We have been through WAY too much together.)

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
