Diabetes mellitus results from insulin deficiency or resistance. Without treatment, pets can develop diabetic ketoacidosis—a medical emergency.
Typical early signs
Polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia with weight loss in dogs; cats may show similar patterns plus a poor coat.
Diagnosis and insulin
Blood glucose curves and fructosamine help confirm diagnosis. Insulin dosing must be veterinary-led.
Pet NGON does not measure glucose or prescribe insulin. Seek a clinic for diagnosis and stabilization first.
Once stable, grooming helps obese-prone pets stay comfortable and allows owners to notice skin issues early.
Next step: See a vet urgently if vomiting or collapse occurs with suspected diabetes; book Pet NGON grooming after stabilization for hygiene.
