Is it safe to stop insulin injections if we think our cat doesn’t need it

If my cats sugar is low how do I get it to go back up
He was very sluggish and not himself so I tested his sugar level which read low

Anonymous Is your cat currently being treated for diabetes? You may want to ask the vet that knows your cat best, to ensure you aren’t countering any medications your cat may be on.

Sandy Whitney Post author Yes my cat gets insulin twice daily, we have changed his food in the hopes that it would regulate his sugar.
Apparently it has made a difference and we may need to lower his insulin dosage -
Anonymous Definitely time to talk to the vet, then.
In the short term, a little food may help.
Looking for a pet sitter to come to my home while on vacation
I have 2 cats and 1 needs insulin twice daily

Doesa diabetic cat need to be fed more often to avoid spikes?
I have a diabetic cat who I give insulin every 12 hours. I can’t be home for his next dose.
Is it better to give it to him early 4 hours, or late 4 hours
Hello,
Please talk to your vet before stopping. In some cases cats can come off of insulin BUT!!! I only say ok when they are on a low dose. Eating only wet food and the owners can check the blood sugar at home to monitor.
Our cat is a patient at Jarrettsville
