A couple of months ago, my vet gave me a diagnosis that a pet-owner does not ever want to hear. After examining my cat, he confirmed that Calvin has diabetes. Insulin injections can be very costly, extremely high-maintenance and even may not be successful. In most cases, you would be fortunate if your cat's life would be extended for another year or two. Since this diagnosis was caught at a very early stage, my vet suggested putting my cat on a very high-protein diet before starting with an insulin program. As soon as I got home, I went online and spent hours researching the best diet suitable for Calvin. I found out that the diet had to consist of high-protein muscle meat (e.g. chicken and rabbit), no gluten, no grains, no vegetables, low or no carbohydrates, a balance of organ meat, combined with fresh ground bones. Cats are carnivores - they eat meat so why should we give them anything else? I was fortunate to have a friend, who highly recommended a store called "Bailey Blu" that produced the exact cat food that I was looking for. The next morning, I walked into the store and was greeted by the owner, Natalie and her friendly companion a dog named "Blu"). I am forever grateful to Natalie, who graciously consulted with me for an hour. She answered all my questions "spot-on" and their cat food met all my requirements. Ten days after feeding my cat this special diet, I brought Calvin back to the vet for another glucose test. You can't imagine how relieved I was and so glad to hear that his sugar level dropped drastically. Honestly, I was quite surprised by such an immediate reaction. As a result, insulin injections were avoided and I will now keep Calvin on this diet. I will also have his glucose level tested on a regular basis to ensure that he is on the right track. It was the best decision I made by walking into this store. My cat is like my child - it saved his life. Hopefully, I will now enjoy him for many more happy years to come . . . and that is best gift ever! Update: Just to let you know, I took Calvin to the vet this morning to get another glucose reading on his sugar level and he is completely back to normal. It's absolutely amazing what this special diet has done for him! On our first visit to the vet, his reading was extremely high at 25. After only ten days on this diet, it went down to 18 so I knew I was on the right track. This morning's reading was 8.5 which is excellent for a normal cat. Thankfully, I caught this at an early stage so his pancreas wasn't too far gone. This was a very pleasant surprise for my vet, who was extremely impressed with the results. He wishes that other vets would do more research on this type of food. Also, he gladly accepted your business card that I gave him and said that he would not hesitate to recommend your food to other clients. So in less than 2 months, Calvin is doing great! I am absolutely thrilled that this diet saved his life! read more
