One week? She brought the cat to the vet on Monday which is only 3 days ago.
The vet called her last night and left her a message (which is only 2 days)
and she was not able to get through to the vet today. Hopefully she will be
able to get through tonight and be able to get the results and start
treatment ASAP. You need to understand that this is the Humane Society in
New York City and the demand that they are under is huge. You don't just
call and get to talk to the vet in most cases right away, they call you.

The message that the vet left last night was that the blood test did in fact
show "positive" for a flare up of the diabetes and that she would go more
into it when they talk. This is bizarre being that she was originally told
it was negative by the nurse.

Please send purrs for my friend and her cat. She lost a cat to diabetes
three years ago and adopted this one 2 years ago when he was 5 and knew that
he had diabetes. He had spent his whole life in the shelter because no one
wanted to deal with the illness and he deserves a long and healthy life.
Thanks again everyone (even you Joe for seeming to care about the cat in your
own way)

Trading insults doesn't help the cat.

This is about the cat, not about the personalities in this group.

One week is long enough for the vet to diddle about.
