Welcome all!  You may be having a tough time getting your kitty to eat and our thinking about syringe feeding.  Or maybe you just want more info for your "everything I needed to learn about feline diabetes I learned online book".

Either way, Louise has put the knowledge and experience she has gained with Chorniy into a useful FAQ that all sugarcat caregivers should have - you never know when you're "hoover" (US brand of vacuums for those off-world) will come down with something and suddenly stop being interested in food.

The risk of fatty liver disease is not one to play with!  If you're cat is showing signs of inappetance you should seek medical help to determine what the root cause is.  For those times when you know its medication, dental work, etc - here are some useful suggestions for how to syringe feed to ensure your cat receives the necessary nutrition.
