In diabetic cat news, mine is being switched from super expensive vet inslulin (about $100 for a bottle that lasts 6 weeks) to a new kind of insulin (from pigs maybe?) that is 1/2 as expensive!!! Not as good as when he was on human insulin (about $15 a bottle if I remember correctly) but still.
I would be there right now.

lisah, glad you got moved to something cheaper. $100/6 weeks is crazy. I'm still lucking out with the $30 nph stuff.

I hope Mr. K. moves into the no longer diabetic camp soon like my friends' cat just did. I've heard about that happening with other cats too but I don't think a miracle cure is in Swifty's cards. (I did get a bottle of the 'spensive insulin my friends no longer needed though.)

You can get Neil Patrick Harris' stuff for $30?

We came pretty close with the whole near-death thing (which I really don't recommend,) but as long as he keeps responding to it so reliably, I can live with him not having a miracle cure. I'm trying to think how long it's been. 3 years? 4?
Hmmm, going to have to look that up when I get home. Which will be soon!

Seriously! I can't remember how long Swifty's been on the stuff either. 3-4 years as well. How old is Mr. Kitty?
