A very brief history of what happened-- our 15 lb 10 year old neutered kitty boy was dx was diabetes about a year ago-- his blood sugar at the vet office was near 600, and he had been drinking and peeing excessively for a couple of weeks when we brought him in-- we managed to control the sugar with twice daily injections for about 8 months-- but after watching your video we started the high protein canned food only, and within a matter of days his blood sugar was consistently withing normal range-- a little over 100-- and we stopped using the insulin entirely. We continue to monitor occasionally, but so far, about 4 months later, normal sugar levels, no other symptoms. We owe you a great debt of gratitude.
Thanks Mimi :-)
Wow.....I wonder if raw food would help too. My cat at hospital rightnow and vet is thinking Diabetes...Lost tons of weight and I thought he was going to die...semi feral. Emaciated within a week...sugars are running up and down from 260 to 432 today....
Same here, went raw and added feline supplement, bone broth and calcium and cat is back to normal.
Just the can food or did you add supplements?
Hannelore Tepper Cats do not get their moisture from drinking but from their food. This is why raw candy wet foods are best.
8:12 - Lol. Murray eating with his paws. Hahahaha.
He's doing that because the vet is giving him food in the glass and his whiskers are sensitive to the enclosed space.
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 3 yrs ago at 71. It made sense to me to lower my carb intake which I did and even went to following the keto diet keeping to about 20 to 30 carbs per day. Diabetes gone as well as 50 lbs! Am still going strong now for 3 years. So when my rescue cat of about 12 yrs old also was diagnosed with diabetes a year ago, I decided to have her eat similarly and since she was a cat and an obligate carnivore it made real sense. She has now been on a high protein canned cat food diet for a year and no diabetes! It is so good to hear of other's success whether cat or human of curing diabetes with diet. I have read of so many fellow humans with diabetes who have changed their diets especially with keto and have also succeeded to do this. Now our cats and dogs are included in the success too! Congratulations with Murray!
Lady Bug, would you mind sharing the type of protein canned cat food you fed your cat?
@@kevincancoupon Sure! I did a search on the internet and got the info of the best canned food for diabetic cats. It was Fancy Feast by Purina. It MUST be the original classic pate. They have lots of flavors. Dont use any other Fancy Feasts. No more kibble or and no treats unless they are one ingredient that is protein. I also give her a treat of a tiny amount (about the size of a quarter) of HEAVY cream which has no carb or sugar as a special treat.
She is eating small meals often during the day (she wouldn't eat more) and at night but that might just be her. At night I put out a whole can and she eats most of it through the night. Her favorite right now is turkey and giblets pate. Before that it was chicken pate. I wish you and your cat the best.
Congratulations to you also.
Love your determination.
Fed mine only canned low carb or cooked meat for him, he never got regulated even with the insulin, his range would vary from 300 all the way up to 400. He died of ketones after being diabetic for 4 months at age of 12 years old, had to put him to sleep, very sad day. Some never regulated, just like people some things don't work for everyone, for those this works for that is awesome news!!
So very sorry for your loss.
My daughter took our middle age neutered male cat in for a physical on March 1st. They drew blood for routine blood work. His only issue--he was having a BM near the litter box a few times per week. No big deal as it was on a tile floor. The vet called me with the bloodwork results on March 4th. His blood sugar was 457. I found this video and began Dr. Jones protocol at 5pm on March 5th. (I took his dry food away and started giving him only canned Firstmate cat food) I took him to the vet yesterday, March 11th. His blood sugar about a half an hour after eating was 192. The vet instructed me to continue what we are doing and to add two tablespoons of dry food per day. I am using the sample of Firstmate indoor food sample that I was given at the pet store. I will take him back to the vet in a week for a recheck. I hope to avoid having to put him on insulin,...........fingers crossed.
I took Peanut back to the vet today. For the last week I have been feeding him Firstmate canned and a bit of dry/ and Tiki Cat canned. His blood sugar today was 262. I am going to give him only canned Firstmate this week and see where his blood sugar level is next week.
Look into nulo. The creator of this brand wanted a high protein diet to prevent diabetes and obesity in animals.
How’s peanut doing on only wet food?
I was thinking of asking you this question, thank you! This is great for your cat too, may he live a healthy long and happy life.
Thanks
Doc, the Lord lead me to find these two videos of yours with Murray. My female cat Sam who’s 11 years old was diagnosed this past April with diabetes. They prescribed exactly what Murray was taking and had me put her on royal canines glycemic kibble. Something in me did not want to give her the insulin. So I just kept her on the new food. About three days ago she wasn’t doing too well so I decided fine, I’m going to have to get her the insulin. I ended up finding these videos and took your advice and immediately started giving her white albacore tuna as it was all I had at the moment. I’ve been giving her the tuna for the last three days and she stopped drinking excessive amounts of water and isn’t urinating in excess! I also bought the nettle leaf tea and will be buying your supplement. My goodness Doc, the Lord truly put you in my path to help Sam. He never ceases to amaze me!! Amen! I’ll check in again in about a week with another update. And I did already get her a high protein kibble which I will be introducing in shortly along with your supplement. Thank you so much Doc! God bless you! 🌷✝️🌷🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You missed part of the points he made in that kibble is dry and cats were not designed to eat dry foods. But adding water to kibble won’t work either as the proteins in it are denatured by over processing. They need meat with its natural moisture content. Mine even eat the non-weight bearing bones in raw chicken like the wings minus the skin but not minus the fat under the skin.
Which foods should we buy
Be careful with tuna, it has a lot of sodium. The only good tuna is either wild caught, if canned then Safe Catch and Wild Planet no sodium added. Tuna should be a treat not a daily meal. Feline Natural, Ziwi peak, Kona and Weruva are good canned cat foods.
Fancy feast classic pates are easy to find and low in carbs. Make sure they’re the classic ones! I believe the FF naturals pates are also good.
Sometimes I boil unseasoned chicken breast and shred up pieces to mix with the pates.
I don’t know how vets can recommend dry food for diabetes or urinary crystals. Yes kibble is more convenient but it’s junk food, honestly. I need to wean my boy cat off of it before he becomes diabetic like my other kitty. He refuses to eat wet food so it’s going to be a challenge.
Thank you, Dr. Jones! I just met someone today that has rescued a diabetic dog. I told her about your TH-cam channel. Thank you for sharing this all important info! Shalom!
Thank you so much Dr. Jones!!!
Murry, loves his food and supplement. Great work!!!
Our vet had us put our newly-diagnosed diabetic cat solely on Fancy Feast Pate (
The exact same thing happened with our cat. Fancy Feast only with two shots a day. Three months later, totally in remission!
can y'all help me with this? did the testing show they were no longer diabetic and then you stopped insulin or did you have to ween them off of the insulin? can someone explain the process as to how that went?@@cswilsoncs
How many cans a day did you give your kitty?
I remember my vet telling me my cat Chewie he's borderline obese at 6yrs old. It was the dry food. 12 yrs later and he's now 18 , but recently diagnosed with Cushing's Disease. He's still going strong. He's been on insulin for a couple weeks now.
I'm so happy for Murray's healing from diabetes!!
Thank you. This is such a good outcome for Murray. I had not realized that Rx canned food was so much better than Rx kibble. I hope this information extends a quality life for many pets.
You are awesome doc.! This same diet (low carb) worked to reverse my T-2 diabetes as well. I applied the info. to my cats and they are doing excellent! Thank you so much, you are WAY ahead of most veterinarians!!
Murray is sooo adorable. This was very helpful thank you so much.
That's great to hear, I'm glad.
Excellent advice. Thanks so much
Nice. Informative video. Dying laughing at scene-stealer Murray eating his dinner with his fingers in the background while Dad talks. LOL!😄
You are truly wonderful. Thank you for your wonderful natural solutions.
Thanks
Absorbing all I can after having my cat diagnosed. Thank you.
Happy to help!
You are such a blessing. Your love of pets and knowledge shine through. I especially prefer the natural remedies. Thank you.
I love how Murray was using his paw to get food out of his dish! I had a calico cat that use to drink her water like that!
:-)
I know me too. Murry was making me laugh eating off of his paw. Aww too cute!
Thank you Doctor.
Hi Dr. Jones, I'm happy to see that you're promoting your pet supplements in your videos. You should promote more of your products so your viewers could purchase them. You have a loyal following who trust you and your products.
Thanks Kevin
That's excellent news for Murray, so pleased for him, the benefits of having such a knowledgeable and caring owner. You must feel great knowing you have totally reversed his DIABETES making him feel so much better.
Thanks
I also got my cat 15 yr Leo off insulin. He just started last Oct. but in April finally went into remission. I’m super happy since he would be sick from it. Now he’s more energetic & happy.
Nice :-)
I'm here watching this vid bc my Cat named Leo was just diagnosed 😩
This gave me hope. So happy for your 15yr old.
Can you share the about the food chart please.
How did you test the glucose levels so you knew the reemission was happening?
My cat Cirrus is just like Murray. We just started insulin, but am going to follow your advice. 🙏
Sooo adorable with that chunky paw in the food. Thank you, was almost feeling hopeless with my baby but I'll start doing protein for my cat.
Great video! Thank you doc! 🙏🏼
You're welcome. Hope it helps!
Dr. Jones...I wish you were my vet! You have given me hope for my newly-diagnosed diabetic dog, Henry. Thank you so very much.
Best wishes from UK. 💕
You're welcome
Thank you doctor for the info
So glad for yr cat . Diabetes is Wicked . My Little. Man Dog was diagnosed 3 weeks ago
Such a sweet boy and talented using his paw as a spoon.
First Mate cat food is sold at Chewy. Ultimate Feline Health probiotics is sold on Dr. Andrew Jones website.
Nice of you to adopt Murray.
Thank you doctor so much
Your video can save so many cats lives. Thank yoU.
My cat got diagnosed with diabetes a week ago. Her levels weren’t going down quickly. I’ve just taken her off of dry food and got her prescription food. I’m giving her two shots a day at the moment but I’m hoping she’ll be able to regulate with diet! Thank you for your video.
Did u manage to get your cat off insulin with his diet as I've just started on that journey with my cat.
Can you just stop insulin? Or does it have to go gradually??
I am feeding my cat with the web most recommended catfood for cat diabetes; Fancy Feast original pate after her diagnosis of diabetes because this cat food has no carbs. There are several varieties so that helps. Turkey pate is my cats favorite right now. For a treat I give her a quarter size drop of heavy cream. There is little or no sugar in heavy cream so it makes a great treat and that much heavy cream does not cause any gastroinestinal upset of any kind. It's has been many months now approaching a year with her success. I too am going strong with the keto diet (4 yrs) and my diabetes. I found a doctor who I can work with too!
I never started insulin myself, my cat got one shot at the vet and one from me (her glucose level crashed and I had to give her some honey). That sinched it, no more insulin. She immediately stopped the excess water drinking and peeing. I took her to the vet one more time and they tested her and she was good. They want to test her every 6 months or so but told me to keep doing what I was doing.
Do you mean dry prescription food?
Murray needs a little bigger food dish so he doesn't have to use his paw!😂
He’s darling the way he dips his paw in the bowl and licks the food off 😋😺
:-)
My cat was diagnosed with diabetes a week ago. He had a huge drop in weight. He too is a big orange cat about 19lb couple months ago but drop a drastic 5 lb and ironically he is at normal weight but in a negative way.. his doctor prescribed insulin and told me to take twice a day.. 12 hours apart with a meal. After watching this video I will eliminate dry food and treats. And start feeding them wet food because I have 3 cats.. I like to know more about the steps I can take to help baby get rid of diabetes all together…
Beautiful video
Thanks
Thankyou very much. Great video!!!
You're welcome
Murray is stealing the scene right now...
Telephone number is 732 546 794 8th
Thank you doctor for this inforrmation.
You’re most welcome!
I love MURRAY! And I’m so happy he’s with you.
We found out our almost 12 year old guy is diabetic. He’s on the same amount of insulin that Murray was on. I’m so hopeful we’ll be able to get him into remission as well. I’m going to purchase your supplement also.
What's your old guy's name? Hope he gets better!
His name is Taka! We’ve had him and his brother Toshi since they were 6 months old. Taka has been on insulin for less than a week and what a world of difference. We feel the lowest amount of insulin might too much, but we’ll see what the vet says.
Here’s hoping Taka will go into remission just like Murray did!
Hi can I ask if you were able to reach remission?
Yvette Jimenez well... yes and no. Taka can go a couple of months where he doesn’t need insulin, but then he’ll have to go back to the daily injections.
I don’t know if my cat had diabetes. She is old and got what I thought was decent food, wet and dry. She was yelling for months, my vet told me she was in great shape. I switched to the food you showed and Sheba too, with added fiber. What a change for the better!! And so fast!!! She is now like a new cat with lots of energy and so so SO happy!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH
There are lots of benefits in changing to wet food. Sheba would not be good in case there is diabetes as they add sugar to their food(because it is cheap and gives the food a darker more appetizing color). The worst wet food is better than the best dry kibble. However, lots of known cat food companies add wheat and or sugar which is not needed for any cat and bad for diabetigers.
Thank you so much for this video! Our cat is over 13yrs old and suffering with Diabetes, shes on the dry diabetic royal canin, but she is still peeing excessively and drinking a lot of water. So this really is much appreciated!
Hi, my cat was just diagnosed with diabetes so we are starting on the insuline. I am searching for the right food and the veteranarian suggested dry food meant for diabetes or urinary problems. I have found thus royal canin that you used and I am wondering how is your cat doing and what is her diet now? Thank you
Hi, I wanted to ask if you implemented this on your cat and if you felt you were able to reach remission?
I'm trying to get my dogs diabetes down using same technique! Thank you. Oh your cat was eating with his paw so cute.
You're welcome! You may check this out too: th-cam.com/video/yxrUzWQTDbY/w-d-xo.html
Excellent!!
Thanks
Awesome stuff, our cat is currently getting 2 shits a day. A couple weeks into her diagnosis we pulled the kibble from her diet and started noticing her glucose number being much lower so we adjusted her insulin to ½ unit twice a day but i now have hope we can get her off the insulin. For new diabetic cat owners, if you can afford it put a freestyle libre on them, especially in the beginning it will let you learn the cats glucose patterns since all you do is scan the device. It helped us immensely because we couldn't get blood from our cat.
Vet put my cat on 2 units of Lantau and changed diet brew months ago but I tested him tonight and he was 497
Love you videos. I followed this to a T and it saved my Ozzy. High protein all the way. He has been off the shots for over a month.
Glad Ozzy's doing great! Thank you for watching!
Hello here is an update on Ozzy. He has officially been off the insulin for over a year now. Thank you so much.
lol Murray at the end...."Daddy, I can't reach the food. Oh well....I'll do it myself." LOL What a sweet boy.
Beautiful Cat
Great video as usual.
Would this work with mal functioning pancreas in dogs. My dear dog was diagnosed having that problem 2 hours ago. A lively little dog turned into a motionless being within a few days. My heart aches!
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
Thank you for the video. I was wondering what high protein wet food you would suggest or are using? thanks!
What type of food do you recommend for a diabetic dog?
God Bless you for this video Dr. Jones. I so much appreciate you. So happy that Murray is well and healthy praise The Lord !Your the best Dr. Jones ! ❤❤
Jennifer Jacobs back---I did end up having to put Peanut on Bexacat. I give him a pill every morning. It is surprising easy. His blood sugar/weight are both great. The vet told me to come back in 6 months. So happy to be able to avoid insulin so far.
How did you ween the cat from insulin? Did you just stop giving it to him or was it smaller amounts over time?
Good news! Thank you!
You bet!
You're a genious Dr. Jones! ♥♥♥♥♥★★★♥♥♥♥♥
:-)
Veterinary Secrets hi dr jones!
Genius
What is that supplement call, please write it down for people like me, English is the 2nd language, thank you
@@aganese4030 ultimate feline health formula. You can buy it from his website.
Thank you for sharing this video. My soon to be 15 year old cat was diagnosed with diabetes in March with her blood sugar in the 500s. She was started with 2 units, then 3, and now 3.5. Then at 6:00am
I woke up to her vomiting and walking very wobbly. I immediately put honey in her mouth and rushed her to the vet. I am terrified to give her insulin anymore. I was seeking alternative methods when I came across your video. I will be buying your supplement and wanted to know what the canned food is called that you’re giving Murray.
Also ordered a jug of your supplement
Hi, can you please tell me where you found the link for that Thanks.
For home made High Protein cat food there are low glycemic vegetables. Google them and then CHECK to see if that vegetable is not toxic to cats.
Dr. Jones was can’t thank you enough! I will be putting my Isaiah on wet food pronto! What was that additional supplement you recommend? Heading over to your blog to see if I can find it! Thanks again!!
You're welcome! You can checkout my supplement here: www.thecatsupplement.com
Hi Ruth, I wanted to ask if you ordered his supplement and if you felt it helped with your baby? I just found a stray and it turned out she has diabetes and I am hoping to reverse it.
Yvette Jimenez hello Yvette! My Isaiah HAS NO MORE DIABETES! It was not only because of this supplement, but it is a nice bridge. Isaiah was pretty bad, the vet thought he would never get off insulin, which I had to give him twice a day, in addition to checking his sugars. His sugars went into the 600’s!!😳. I am very happy to report that he is totally cured. I changed his diet to NO GRAINS wet food, and I add organic psyllium husk to keep fiber in his diet and keep his stool formed. He is now a very healthy but ornery boy again and feels so much better!! Good luck with your baby. You ABSOLUTELY CAN REVERSE DIABETES! 😊
Hi, Veterinary Secrets. Thank u so much for ur view. It is helping my cat. Especially the nettle tea. Is ur fur baby with u & is he still in remission?
Thank you so much for this video. My dog Mellow is diagnosed diabetic this past week. Everything has cost us so much and the food requires a prescription that could only be order online or buy at the clinic. The food is expensive online and almost double at the clinic. I’m going to try this, but I wanted to know how long before I take Mellow of the insulin and when to have him test?
Back again, love this video. 👍 Just noticed something: Blood from the vein for a BG test? I thought you just get a prick sample from the ear tip or paw pad? And I thought low carb was more important for diabetic cats than hi prot.?
I went to your webinar but it was over. Murray is wonderful. You are wonderful. Thank you. I just had to put my cat of 14 years old to sleep on 7/27/2021. I waited until I was ready and choice to adopt a kitty.. She is 10 years old and has diabetes. The ASPCA is recommending a special diet. They listed what she has been eating. I an watching this video but how do I get the product?
A year ago, I brought my 11 yr old fat cat in for whatever reason and they did blood work on him-everything came back within normal range. The vet had me change his food to Fromm brand which is grain/gluten free so I thought it was fairly healthy. He also got grain/gluten free canned food twice a day. Within the last month he started peeing and drinking like crazy and a normally quiet cat started meowing his head off constantly. One day I picked him up and he was so light that I made a vet appt. Blood work came back in the 500's and was told Fromm is not carb free and it had skyrocketed his sugar. They put him on super expensive diabetic kibble plus diabetic wet food as well as giving him 2 units of insulin a day. Within a couple days he's gone back to his normal self, thank goodness. I'm hoping for remission now that he's lost weight and on a better food.
Thanks for sharing- good to know. It was the dry kibble
Where do I find the can food? I tried to read the name but I couldn't see it. Thank you for all your help doctor. 🙏😊
Doctor I just subscribed to your channel. where is your site to order the supplement? I don't see it anywhere
My 9 years old dog was diagnosed with Diabetes 11 months ago (He was born with a mild Cushing syndrome). He was in a ketoacidosis stage and slowly dying, but vets were able to save him. For the last 10 months, I have given him 8 units of insulin twice a day. After that, he was back to normal, but he gradually lost his vision. He is 80% blind due to cataracts. So we decided to do the cataract surgery.
The pet ophthalmologist ran some tests, and his Cushing syndrome was out of control. The vet put him on VVV / 30 mg per day. This put his crushing under control. Then, he had one final test before the eye surgery, and his sugar was at 720; the next day, it was at 96. Vets reduced the insulin to 2 units. The eye surgery was placed on hold, and the vets are trying to regulate the sugar and the Cushing. They changed his medication again to 10 mg twice a day for the Cushing and 3 units for the insulin. He looks ok, but he is weak, thin, fragile skin. I’m afraid that he may not be able to get eye surgery or die. Please advise.
Hi. Did you join the feline diabetes support group on Facebook???
Going through the same thing with my Minpin put a freestyle libre glucose monitor on him I can’t believe how many highs and lows there is in one day,He’s also gone blind and Eye surgery $7000! And I would’ve gladly done it a few weeks ago, but now he keeps running into things and poking around his eyes are all swelled up and bald, he stumbles around and has a lot of bad days, I guess I’m just keeping them alive for me, 😢so I can’t get his diabetes under control, he needs to have a couple more teeth pulled at $600 then he needs major blood work done before they’ll even look at his eyes!They had me feed him a half a cup of day, and he lost a lot of weight and was gonna die, now I wet the food and he eats almost a cup and I can tell he is miserable i use dry dog food,Hills for diabetic dogs very expensive,I wish there was a quality food for dogs in the can if that would really work?
@@golfwipe Libre isn' reliable for dogs. You need Easy Touch or Alphatrek 2 NOT 3 and you need to test before insulin. For cushings, they need lignans and a speck of melatonin. Green beans, red lentils, flax are all lignan sources.
Great job!! Murray is a very lucky cat.
Thanks
Hi, how do I fund a link to purchase the supplement that you added to Murry's tinned food, please.
Murray is so Cute 😺
:-)
Watching from Australia, where can U get similar suppliments to what you give?
Interesting video! My kitty is 9 years old and I just started giving her insulin that was caused by her IBS medication. I've always fed her wet food. She's recently been going through a slew of issues that's made her really underweight :(
Could I ask if the IBS medication was prednisolone?
@@ivypang8450 My vet has my cat on prednisolone, a steroid. Is there a problem with prednisolone? Thank you
Thanks for the video. What is the supplement you are giving please.?
Thank you for watching. For the supplement details check this link thecatsupplement.com. Glad to help 😊
My cat was drinking excessively & peeing a lot. Got him to the vet ASAP! His sugar was 517! Had to give him 2 shots a day & check his sugar 2 to 3 times a day by pricking the outer edge of his ear. (Bought a pet glucose monitor from the vet.)There is a TH-cam video of how and where to prick the ear. I had to trim the fur a little on my extremely fuzzy cat. Day 2 of having a diabetic cat, I started doing research. Found out the prescription Urinary SO dry kibble I had him on was high in carbs & known for causing diabetes. I found a list of low carb (
So good to know and Thanks for sharing your results using canned food for diabetes!
@@VeterinarySecrets I can attest to everything he is saying. There is a fb group that specializes in feline diabetes. Excellent insight in there.
where can we purchase your supplement for cats as shown in this video? my cat has been on a wet food diet her entire life, and still got diagnosed with diabetes. id really love to try to improve her condition with any help. I live in Canada. is it available for purchase online?
Your video was perfectly timed. My 16 year old cat has started peeing everywhere, excessively, and wants to drink all the time! Thank you so much. I already have your supplements, so I will try this!
Thanks - in an older pet I would 1st suggest getting tested for kidney disease
Hi Tina, can I ask if you felt the supplement helped and if you were able to reach remission with your cat.
My 11 yo dog suddenly got very thirsty one day and I took her in and they said diabetic ketoacidosis. Basically long story short no ER hospital clinic in NYC would treat her because her age + severity of illness = exorbitant money and they weren’t willing to try if I didn’t have funds up front. I was given insulin by vet and sub Q fluids to take home, I did the very best I could for 3 weeks until she passed away. I am profoundly upset at many things; not finding caring, emotionally intelligent competent care for her, confusion at how she suddenly got this illness which I’m told is common? And the first sign is often DKA? That’s hard to believe unless my dog hid her illness so well. I’m confused and heartbroken. I fed her really well including your multivitamin formulas and other whole food and nutrients. Could it have been hormone imbalances that caused DKA? Pancreatitis? Someone mentioned perhaps she had cushings? If you could possibly make a video on sudden DKA in dogs it would be deeply appreciated. I’ve met a multitude of people in the past 2 weeks who have told me their dogs first sign of diabetes has also been DKA. Thank you so much Dr Jones. Your courageous leap into alternative healing, compassion and truth is deeply appreciated in the face of the current trends in veterinary medicine which I sadly find deeply disheartening.
Thank you dr. Jones for this great video ! 😊
I heard that coconut oil can help diabetes for people.
Is it good for cats too ? If so how much should I give my cat ?
What was the name of the two items and where can I purchase them please?
Exactly, the us what the cat food and suppliments are. If we knew already we wouldn't be watching your video.
First Mate cat food and Ultimate Feline Health Formula. Google and you will find where to get those.
On Amazon I looked for his dry cat food the first ingredient is potato! What!
Doctor Jones, my little dog was diagnosed today with diabetes, drinking excessively and urinating every few minutes. He gets two units of insulin a day starting today. I would love to do what you did for your little cat. But, I can't see the name of your supplement and is there a "moist" high protein dog food you recommend. I bought today Hill's prescription diet can food for him, it is so stiff it bends the spoon. He refuses to eat it. I would continue his insulin and see if he can be taken off of it soon. Thank you for your wonderful help to animal Moms and Dads.
What brand of glucometer did you use? I have learned that you need one specifically calibrated for cats for an accurate reading. Eg Alphatrak 2 or 3.
Dr Jones-- you are absolutely right, as you know, and now I and my husband and formerly diabetic cat know too, and thank you, with all our hearts. Now the only thing left to do is find a good home for all that expensive cat insulin and hypodermic needles! And the giant, old bag of dry kibble!
Dr. Jones you are such a kind and caring person. I am so happy that Murray is in such great hands. My dog Hunter who is 12 yrs. old has diabetes and I still can not find some type of canned dog food that he will eat. I have tried so many different types of food that were recommended by folks who know about diabetes; but he is very particular when it comes to eating. I did try your supplement but he would not eat his food. He does like people food which is what I am feeding him now, but I need to get him some supplements and I am hoping you will recommend what I should be giving him. He was taking multivitamins for awhile but now he refuses them. The dog food is so expensive and if he ate it that would be great; I end up throwing it out. I want to give him chromium but wanted to check with you to see how much I should give him, he is 32 lbs. and losing weight, he is a cockapoo. I trust all the advice that you give. I have switched Vets since Hunter was diagnosed; I like the new Vet; the only thing is that my perception is that he isn't as knowledgeable about diabetes. I could be wrong and I hope I am because he is a caring Vet. Thank you again for all your help!!!
Thanks Eileen,
Consider making his food with hamburger. Another good supplement option is Brewers Yeast as it contains alphalipoic acid and can help with blood sugar regulation
can dogs take cinnamon for diabetes? I have cinnamon with alphalipoic acid, Could I cut them in half and give to her? She is a rescue, mini Dachshund terrier mix. up to 12 lbs now! she eats dry kibble and i see what its doing to her, she loves ground beef, cooked though, have not tried raw.afraid to for fear it may have antibiotics in it.
Brilliant video. My cat has just been diagnosed as a diabetic. I suspected it was due to his love of kibble. However at the vets clinic she insisted I buy the prescription diet kibble, and yes its got all sorts of carbs in it. I kept thinking to myself, but cats dont eat rice and corn in the wild, how can this be good for him. Your video confirmed my thoughts. He is going on a raw meat diet now and I hope I can stop insulin injections soon. Thanks so much xxx
Did you join the Facebook group?
@@germanylicious no I didnt join the FB group. I am so happy to report Houdini no longer needs insulin. He is stil on a low carb diet, and occasionally I put him on a 24hour fast. It took me a year to get him with normal blood sugar. I fed him mainly a prey diet (raw rabbit meat, with abit of bone and organ meat ground into it, plus high protein tinned cat food).
Oh I should add also, I used the multivitamin and mineral supplement by dr Jones 😁. Plus I gave houdini salmon omega 3 oil
@@leeoleary3321 what vitamins did you give? Mine has also pancreatitis so I gotta be careful with oils.
@@leeoleary3321 I am struggling with his blood sugar extremely. Nothing seems to work. What was your BG before the changes? Did you measure at home?
what is the supplement called for dogs with diabetes? and can i buy it from your website with postage to australia
Thank you Dr. Jones. I'm going to try this with my senior cat. He gets two small servings of wet food per day and 3 small servings of diabetic kibble, but it doesn't seem to be helping. I just checked his BS and it was very high, but it's impossible to get a true curve as he never lets me do it more than once every few weeks. My question is, what do you consider to be a high-protein food? The wet food I give him is 10%, is that adequate or is there a specific brand I should be feeding?
Good daddy and son 👍👍
do you have a video about this for dogs
Murray needs a spoon. LOL. Great video. I'm doing the same for my newly diagnosed dog. I want her off insulin.
Hope your dog gets better.
@@VeterinarySecrets Thank you so much! Information and encouragement like this helps greatly.
what are the supplements and canned food? Thank you..
Dr. Murray thank you so much, we are having issues figuring out the treatment for a recently diagnosed diabetic cat that we own, its been on insuline for a week, and yesterday had to get hospitalized because of huge spike of sugar, we live in Mexico, I want to buy your supplement ASAP , but also would like to know what type of food is that and which brand? and tips for a more natural homemade food alternative for our little one, I appreciate the help we are desperate and being misguided by the vets here, they seem to not know what they are doing regarding feline diabetes, thanks again
Are there any food readily available in the US that are as good a First Mate for getting your cat off insulin? It's pretty expensive here in the states, over $4 a can. OR what is the carb content of First Mate and I can match carb content to foods I can find here?
