Diabetes mellitus is a common endocrinopathy in cats, but it can be challenging to manage. Given the rise in obesity in this species it may also become more prevalent. This learning series with Sam Taylor is aimed at giving confidence to both manage straightforward and complex cases.
Cats often don’t read the textbooks when it comes to this condition so real life scenarios and the background behind those difficult to manage cases are used to illustrate treatment and diagnostic options.
