Prevention
Feline diabetes risk factors include a family history of the disease, obesity and consistent intake of high carbohydrate dried food. While the genetic predisposition of feline diabetes can not be prevented, feline diabetes can be prevented through management of weight and limiting carbohydrate intake. Avoid over-feeding a cat and if possible use canned cat food rather than dry cat food. The high carbohydrate content of dried cat foods gives cats a sugar shock every time they eat. Over time this wears down the pancreas and eventually it gets to tired to function efficiently.YourDiabeticCat.com: What Causes Diabetes in the Cat?Signs

If a cat begins to exhibit these signs or behaviors take him or her to see a veterinarian.Feline Diabetes.com: What is Feline Diabetes, and How Does it Affect My Pet's Health?
