How I Trained My Diabetic Cat to LOVE Glucose Testing! 😻💉

Описание: Glucose testing doesn’t have to be a struggle. In this video, I show how we turned daily blood sugar checks into a bonding routine—with trust, patience, and a whole lot of treats. 💙

If you’ve just started your feline diabetes journey, or you’re trying to make home testing easier, this video covers everything I wish I knew from day one.

📍We learned all of this thanks to the incredible Feline Diabetes Support Group on Facebook. If you’re feeling overwhelmed—join, read the guides, and tag an admin. It changed everything for us.

DISCLAIMER:
This video is part of our ongoing mission to support diabetic kitty parents. It may serve as an educational example of safe and caring diabetes management — whether it’s blood glucose testing at home or administering insulin with extra care. It can also be a helpful guide for using positive reinforcement when giving any meds and for deepening your bond with your kitty.
Even when Adonis is a little “extra” — especially with cat dad! — we always prioritize his well-being over content. If he’s ever truly upset, we stop. He is never forced. Everything is done with love, patience, and respect.
