If your cat has been diagnosed with diabetes or borderline diabetes it’s important to check the blood sugar regularly. Cats can develop hypoglycemia when the blood sugar or glucose levels are below normal. Signs of hypoglycemia in cats may include a sudden decrease in energy, change in appetite, appear weak, restless, confused and even pass out. Causes of hypoglycemia may be due to an overdose of insulin. I can also be caused by underlying health problems. Your vet can tell you that a cat’s brain needs consistent supplies of glucose to function. If an illness is preventing this from happening it can cause hypoglycemia. You should watch for symptoms of hypoglycemia in cats that are diabetes as well as in cats that are not diabetic. Hypoglycemia can be dangerous and needs immediate treatment.
