https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/24049/diabetic-home-testing Does anyone know a suitable glucometer and device for ear-pricking for a diabetic cat, so an owner can take blood glucose measurements at home? I have a case at the moment of a cat that gets quite stressed in the clinic. en-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/155270?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 21 Mar 2016 15:30:04 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:fc695e09-810e-467a-a049-1ffe4923a8a4Anthony Dennison<p>+1 for the alphatrack. Really easy to use. If you do use the pricking device, its a good idea to push the ear up into them, rather than just lying them flat. Better chance of drawing blood.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/155261?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 21 Mar 2016 11:52:37 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:48ef21f1-91b1-40e9-8bfc-a3994643e80aMartin Atkinson<p>+1 Alphatrack. The amount of blood you need is microscopic. I wouldn&#39;t bother with the pricking device either just use the lancets.&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/155257?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 21 Mar 2016 11:27:47 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:6ac7b079-dd9a-4b3b-8196-a61f0fd56a09Linda Filshie<p>alphatrack starter kit - easy to use/explain and it&#39;s calibrated for cats and dogs.
