Question
Hello!

You provided a homemade cat food recipe for a constipated, diabetic cat.  Can I use the same recipe for my 14 year diabetic cat even though he's not constipated?

Thanks!

Answer
Yes, definitely. Introduce him to it very slowly by gradually adding it to hes regular food in increasing amounts while decreasing his other food. Remember that it takes a lot less of a homemade food to keep a cat healthy and well fed, so don't expect him to eat as much.
