Sneaky diabetes 🐈
Early signs of diabetes mellitus in cats aren’t always obvious at first glance 🐱
Many patients present with gradual or subtle changes—like increased thirst, weight loss, or lethargy—making consistent evaluation over time essential to early recognition.
The 2026 AAHA Diabetes Management Guidelines for Cats highlight the importance of:
• Identifying at-risk patients
• Recognizing early clinical signs
• Using consistent body and muscle condition scoring
