Latte Ng

Adopted

Marilyn’s cat. 

Coming 猫房 cos mummy away and he needs insulin jabs x twice a day (Erm told mummy I don’t agree cos twice!! X 0.01ml glargine, so all the more need to put freestyle sensor to be really safe to know when can’t jab) 

His usual jabs timing r 10am and 12pm. Mummy follow strictly no food but only food when jabs r given. So poor thing loh. I was told he is a greedy cat. Let’s see by then got sensor his diet won’t be so restricted, and hopefully he can wean down n off insulin like Totoro. 

Diagnose to be diabetic cat on 21.3.23
