Thread: diabetes in Maine Coons

My last cat Koda had Diabetes, Heart disease, and what really killed him was fatty liver disease(with the heart disease his heart was too weak to be put under and he couldn't be given a feeding tube to help with the liver disease due to that). It is very common for Maine Coons to have heart disease but you are the first person I've heard of other than my self to have a maine coon with diabetes. Koda was only 7 when I had to have him put down and he had heart disease since he was 3 years old and diabetes when he was 6 almost 7. I hope your cat does better than mine did.(my family had Koda since he was 3 weeks old and bottle raised him)
