My diabetic cat, Goofy could use some vibes today.

He hasn't acted himself this am and after checking, I find he is drooling. Lots of saliva there. It may be a tooth.

He is mortified of the carrier and vet and I always worry about his sugar going up or down.

Gonna call in a few minutes to get him in.

Thanks guys!

Been thinking of you and Goofy all day. Did the vet see what's wrong?

Hi guys...thanks for all the thoughts.

Goof has a tooth infection. His gums are inflamed. He got a covenia shot and a long lasting anti inflam also. His BS was 160ish not terrible considering he was under stress. Also did a test that will tell what his numbers have been the past 3 weeks.

In 3 weeks he will go back in for a scaling. But I can tell he feels better already.


He went right out into their enclosure and watched the birds and ate pretty good. He weighs 18 lbs.! Man.....he is a big cat. Not fat, just solid. Like abs of steel!!

Here is his picture.

Thanks again for your good thoughts and interest. I knew he would do good with you guys rooting for him!

Awwww, he's just a darling! Was that picture taken today?

I'm very glad he's feeling better.

Kiss him on the nose for me, will ya'?

That was taken a while ago. Maybe around 14 or 15lbs there.

I have a prism hanging in their window so when the afternoon sun hits it the lights go all around the room. He jumps up the walls to get the lights! Then he will chase shadows on the floor and walls of the other kitties walking about.

He is such a funny boy!


He was kissed!
