This lecture will explain how the disease differs in each of these species and the different nutritional approaches used in managing canine and feline diabetic patients. Types of diets appropriate to potentially reduce (or possibly eliminate in cats) the need for exogenous insulin therapy will be discussed. It is not unusual for patients with diabetes mellitus to suffer from concurrent disease for example; chronic inflammation can contribute to severe insulin resistance. How proper nutrition can play a major role in glycemic control with these patients will also be discussed. Two cases will be discussed in detail to illustrate concepts presented; the important role nutrition played in managing DM in a dog with severe dermatitis and otitis and a feline patient that achieved and remains in remission with the aid of nutrition. 1.
