HI there I have to jump in on this one....My moms cat has been diagnosed for Rodent Lip as well...now the vet indicated the food allergy issue and we tried one of the vet foods for a short time...Now he eats Orijen and loves it.
The vets diagnosis was that he could be given a shot but it would most likely bring on diabetes. So with my mom being elderly she could not care for her cat if she had to give it needles..So out of fear we chose another treatment the vet recommended a series of prednisone..Well he has been on it for months now..His pads of his feet cleared up well but his mouth is bad.
My question is did anyone else's vet mention the onset of diabetes.???? ..because I am thinking that we may have to just try the shot? the prednisone cannot be good for him after such a long time??
Cindy
