Wow, you are really giving me lots of info. Also after reading your post, the least I can do is try poking the ear. This is all new to me and I hurt him a little with insulin shot, ddduuhhh. As far as lantus and levemir ( actually same drug) as is trujoli. I deal with human diabetics and all...

That is soooo nice that you showed me all this. Thi cat is the type that no one can get near him, if you hurt him, he won't be anywhere in sight. I am the only one that can touch him, so giving him the shot is tricky but doing OK. The vet can't even show me how to do anything on my cat, he has...
