Has anyone here had a diabetic squirrel? It's a long story but my vet is going to try insulin this morning. We haven't been able to find any info. She's spoken with an animal endocrinologist and we'll be sending blood from the squirrel (7 month old male fox) and another one the same age for comparison that is normal (and to be released soon).
We've done blood panels and urinalysis, but he is going to die if we don't do something. It will take time to get the results back from the other Dr. because he's in Michigan and we're in Oregon. My vet is an exotics Dr. and has had ferrets that were diabetic but it's completely different and we're really scared to kill my little guy. He's 900grams and only 7 months old~
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
