My wife and I have five kitties, all rescued from the shelter. One of them is a diabetic. Hope that’s not what is wrong with your Whitey.

Well, we took Whitey to the vets and he seems to think that she might either be diabetic or have some kidney problems, both where we will have to deal with it. They will keep her until Saturday to make sure what is going on and to stabilize her more. BTW, I'm doing more research to help her out based on what I've read here and I will get to your private mails soon. Right now, I'm waiting for a status check from the vets. I'm not too depressed now, at least she is under expert care and the kidneys do concern me but with this vet, we did keep one cat alive (where another vet wrote her off) with kidney failure for 2 and a half years with only diet modifications and another for 9 months with fluids. I'm hoping that we can keep her going as long as the first if not longer.

He just wants to make sure because diabetes can play havoc with the kidney numbers too.
