Our indoor cat, about 12 years old, has diabetes. I'm 99% sure.
The cat is quite hard to handle, and my wife (and I, to a degree) don't think we would be able to manage blood tests and insulin injections. In addition, changing her diet from dry food would be difficult for the cat. To make matters worse, the vet is hugely expensive.
So, we are thinking of not treating her. My question is, is the cat suffering? She doesn't seem to be, she hangs around, sleeps, purrs, etc. And will she suffer as the disease progresses?
