Food Is Life: Treatment of Feline Diabetes Mellitus Patients

Feline diabetic patients received a variety of tests, glucogenic products and prescription diets (2013-2015). The number of clinic visits/year varied with the type of treatment each diabetic feline received.  There were about 180,000 DM cats who received only a prescription diet.  The average number of DM cats who received diet food for treatment, alone or in combination with glucogenic regulators, was about 240,000. There were about 20,800 DM cats that received an average of 63,000 Glucogenic Replacement Therapy (GRT) products without a prescription diet.
