I wish i could have met you earlier cause I could have helped you. Even dka can be treated successfully although it is very expensive. This occurs to to lack of insulin, infection or not eating. Most times it happens because the cat is not regulated. The cat is basically eating it's own body since it cannot process the food correctly. fats are broken down in the body too quickly fo the body to get id of the ketones I am positive the vet did not give you the tools you needed to treat you cat successfully. (Not his fault many vets aren't up to date) I am deeply sorry for you loss<br><b>References : </b><br> Mike I am very sorry you went through this.

I am positive the vet did not give you the tools you needed to treat you cat successfully. (Not his fault many vets aren’t up to date)

I am deeply sorry for you loss

She had been on insulin for about a year. Everything seemed fine, then she stopped eating and was gone two days later. I talked to the vet during the ordeal and have looked unsuccessfully for a medical description of how this progression occurs. It won't help us now, but I am just trying to make sense of what happened. Is there a medical explanation for treated & regulated feline diabetes to progress to diabetic ketoacidosis?
