Flashback Doodle of the Day
Yesterday, I shared an autumnal flashback doodle from 2018. It starred a kitty, some books, and of course some autumnal vibes. When I shared that flashback doodle yesterday, I commented that I was in the mood to recreate it. Today, I've decided to share another 2-year-old flashback doodle that I also believe I'll recreate in my current drawing style, which is similar yet also different to what it was back in 2018. Today's flashback is of course another autumnal, bookish, and catty doodle.
Continuing on with our tips for National Pet Diabetes Awareness Month, today we're here to say that, of course, always administer a diabetic cat or dog's insulin and other treatments as discussed with your veterinarian. The amount, frequency, and sometimes even timing of insulin administered to a diabetic furbaby is very important for getting blood glucose under control. For this reason, be sure that you understand how to administer the insulin, which is injected beneath the skin, and have your veterinarian give explanations and demonstrations as needed. Also make sure that you understand the proper storage and preparation of insulin. In most cases, insulin needs to be refrigerated, and before administration it is often suggested that the bottle of insulin be rolled between the hands in order to prepare it for administration. Then there is also the important step of pulling up the insulin into the syringe for administration. If you have any questions or concerns with any of these steps, never hesitate to ask your veterinarian. And, of course, immediately let your veterinarian know if you notice any changes in behavior that might indicate that an adjustment to the insulin dosage is needed. Keep a close eye on your diabetic kitty or pup's water intake, eating habits, bathroom habits, activity level, and other such factors, as all of these can be affected by either high or low blood glucose levels. You know your furbaby best and spend the most time with them, so do be sure to keep a close eye on them and inform your veterinarian of any concerns you have.

We love seeing pawsies of other kitties! Sometimes, it is easier than seeing our own.
What cute jelly beans!
Sweetie has fabulous toe beans, and of course her murder mitts can be very frightening!

Tonks is a cutie= love the those toesies. Great drawing and tips. I hope to never need to give my kitties insulin.
