Review on Wellness Complete Natural Food 5 5 Ounce by Jon Thawngzauk

A cat breeder friend told me that an alarming number of cats and dogs develop diabetes as they age. The likely cause is wheat, corn, and rice, which are used as bulking agents in commercial foods. Cereals are particularly harmful to cats since they are carnivores. That means they can only digest meat. Grains simply raise blood sugar levels. I learned this the hard way when Danny, my 18 year old cat, lost his appetite and balance. He walked on the flat part of his hind legs and slid across my desk like a block of ice. After a crazy visit to the vet and an expensive blood test, the vet told me Danny had diabetes. (His blood sugar was over 500. The normal range for a cat is 80-120.) The vet told me where to buy a cat and dog blood glucose meter and supplies, as well as some general instructions for testing Danny's blood glucose and administering it of insulin to him. . (There are some good videos on YouTube.) The vet also recommended various canned and dry foods that may lower his blood sugar. , his favorite. After some experimentation, I settled on this health can as the best food for Danny. It has some grain free sauce and loves the flavor. I also feed him grain free wellness dry food. Ever since I changed his diet, Danny's blood sugar has been *in the normal range for everything except a few days before*. I still check and log his blood sugar every morning just to be sure. Also, Danny looked forward to our morning ritual. (If you ever need to check a cat's blood sugar level, start by massaging the cat's ear with a warm, damp cloth for two to three minutes. The cat will relax and the warmth will make it easier for him to draw blood.) At his age I don't know. how much Danny is left, but I will try to make his life as happy and healthy as possible. So I will buy him this food until he doesn't like it or he has some other health problem.
