My son in law has an 18 yr old long haired female cat (Moo) who has an
ulcerated tongue and had to have a feeding tube inserted today. She's
been unable to eat for days. She is also diabetic. Anyone with
experience in this area?
All advice gratefully accepted!



For starters he needs to get her off dry kibble loaded with cheap filler
carbohydrates. Or cheap canned food full of these useless fillers.

Here's some good links to start you off:
