On November 2, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Veterinary Medicine issued an alert warning pet parents and veterinarians to keep a close eye on animals receiving the insulin product, Vetsulin, to treat animal diabetes. The product, which is manufactured by Intervet/Schering-Plough Animal, may contain varying amounts of crystalline zinc insulin, and could cause a delay in insulin action and an overall longer duration of insulin activity, according to the FDA.

“Pet parents whose diabetic dogs or cats are currently being treated with Vetsulin insulin should contact their veterinarians to discuss appropriate measures,” says Dr. Louise Murray, Director of Medicine at the ASPCA. “Examples of alternative insulin choices include Humulin N and Levemir insulins for dogs, and Lantus (glargine) insulin for cats. These insulins require different syringes than those used to administer Vetsulin, and it is essential that pet parents work closely with their veterinarians when making any changes.”

Veterinarians should monitor their patients who are receiving Vetsulin, and consider transitioning them to the insulin products outlined above.

Hi, Everyone. We are back online with our NEW STORE: CONSORTIUM-eb-SEVEN 7 and wanted to invite any who are interested in sharing their lives with Horses to stop over and visit us; we are listing our first NEW EQUINE STUDY COURSE (see the attached number) and working throughout this next week to list other horse related items. We hope you will review our Guides and Community postings because you may find something of interest to you; we always welcome comments and emails. Some of our training and home-vet remedies also apply to smaller "pets" than horses (for instance: one of our Giant Schnauser dogs has been shaking her head and has seepage draining--so we began treating with the simplest approach--mix 3Twhite vinegar with 3Twarm water and 1T peroxide, wash the outer ear and the inside fold, do not go into the inner flap, then gently apply the mixture to both areas and squeeze drops of the mixture into the inner ear( just hold the tip of the ear straight up during this whole process)--stand back! the dog will shake its head and may walk about excitedly (it probably stings) then: quiet and healing begins. We always stay with the dog and give it treats when it settles. You may have to treat 4/5 days before the ear returns to normal. If it takes longer please see a vet....happy trials today to each of you and PLEASE DO VISIT our store...THANKS. wfh webmaster

my wife wants another dog !!we had two and there gone now i kinda don't mind the idea but i don't miss cleaning the yard everyday and the grass is green again and those vet bills it seems the doctor makes things up just to get you in there !!

Have anyone check thepetswharehouse.com online store out? i love the prices

What kind of pet do you have? I have 2 rambunctious cats(actually 1 cat 1

kitten)--I'm always telling them to behave themselves! My older one Gizmo

doesn't like to be bothered when he's sleeping but the kitten, Romeo just

can't leave him alone lol...so of course a cat battle ensues...Gizmo , of

course, comes out the victor as he is much larger than little Romeo ...I'm

relatively new here. I've been selling on ebay for a little over a month.

Mostly my own personal items at first & then I got into designing fractal

images , which I must say was no small feat on my behalf as I didn't think I

had one artistic bone in my body. I really surprised myself. I have a goal

that I am determined to reach. A reason why I am doing all this and I have

decided to share my story for all the good it does lol. I am trying to earn

money to go be with the man I love who lives across the ocean. Yes, I'm

sure you've heard it all before from others but I love this guy with all my

heart and soul, more than I thought I could ever love another human being

ever. I truly, honestly believe he is my soulmate for life. My days without

him truly bring my spirits down but knowing he loves me helps me get

through these days. He works on our website, which we set up my fractal

images on for free download in a smaller form, hoping people might donate.

That was a joke-not one donation after 3 months...I feel like I've wasted so

much time. And here I try to sell what I have created...all to no avail.

Seems it will take me years to earn enough for plane fare. I have

considered dropshipping--don't know much about it & can't afford to get

ripped off as I also am raising 2 boys who cannot afford that as well . Any

help from anyone would be so greatly appreciated. Before the question

comes...why don't I work? Right now, that is not possible due to back &

neck injuries. Sorry this was soooo long & hope you had a big cup o joe to

go with it lol
