Abstract

<p><tt>In the diabetes cats, infectious diseases such as urinary tract infection and periodontal disease are frequently observed accompanying depression immunocompetence. Cats are more likely susceptible to stress-induced hyperglycemia and limited in hypoglycemic activity. Therefore, it is often very difficult to maintain glycemic control such as diabetes mellitus（DM）cats with these problems. This study used 3 cases of DM patient of our university teaching hospital. These cats have been suffered from chronic inflammations, and poorly-glycemic control due to stress. In order to achieve these objectives, we need to make good use of the learnings from each case and problems with hospitalized animals. We can give appropriate advice to care in their home after discharge. Moreover we need to consider each cat preference and stress inducers when we take care of hospitalized patients, and vet nurses provide them with comfortable environment as much as possible by increasing their satisfactio</tt><tt>n level and eliminating in hospitals. </tt></p>
