Has anyone else noticed that everyone on here seems to have cats. Hardly any mentions of dogs at all!
Are there any dog people out there? Does anyone else think there is a thing with diabetics and cats? I love both cats and dogs but I live in an apartment and can only have a cat! Her name is Hunter.
I’d love to see some pics of your cute pets! 
Has anyone trained their cats or dogs to detect hypos? That would be cool!
Cheers.
Hi Linda:
Here are pics of my three girls.

i really love cats. i think they’re smart, funny, intelligent and all that. but my mother HATES them and so i do not have a cat. instead i have a guinea pig who appears to think she is a dog. or maybe even human. i don’t have a decent picture of her though, she can’t pose and she definitely can’t sit still.
but i’ve got pictures of my cousin’s 2 cats - my ‘niece’ and ‘nephew’. both were rescued strays who are now lovely house cats. cutie’s a small black kitten who was given 3 days to live. she has the softest paws in the world! and deebeedoo is a gigantic 10 kilo cat who believes he must be human.
travis, i think your beagle’s adorable. i love beagles. and i can’t wait to see all the cuties too, leah! (:

I am both a dog and cat person. But have only a cat right now - Rosie… Who, you are correct, Linda, looks remarkably like your Hunter :). Although it looks like Hunter has some white in her sea of black fur - Rosie is just straight up black.
I’d love to add a dog to my family someday. Who knows…
Anywho - this is my Boston Terrier Charlie. He is out on the patio sunbathing as I type this. And there’s nothing wrong with his eye - it’s just the camera flash.
All your pets are gorgeous! I would love to get a dog! My boyfriends sister has a boston terrier! They are so cute (in an ugly way) Love the boggely eyes!
Nicole, Hunter is straight up black too! i think its just the pic that makes her look white, she has a tiny tip of white on her tail but it wouldn’t even be 1cm in diameter! Too Cute!!!
Hunter is, of course, gorgeous in my eyes…
Awww, look at all the cuties! I love cats and dogs!! But cats are just so much easier. We are renting right now, but once we buy a house we’ll possibly consider a dog, my hubby wants a pug. Here are our two sweeties … Jack (the grey Manx) and Noel (the buff tabby in the silly outfit – she’s my daughter’s best bud).
Linda,
I call Charlie a New Jersey Terrier. lol
When we got him as a puppy, I was told he was a purebreed. But, he does not have a traditional Boston Terrier look (no bug eyes, his snout is pretty long and not pushed in) so, obviously, he’s not purebreed. He got out the door once and chased the mailman who almost maced my baby because he thought he was a pit bull!
OK… I’m not a cat person, never have and never will be. I had a dog when I was at home with my mom, and someday will have a dog of my own. Almost everyone I grew up with had dogs too. One fo my friends from high school used to have seizures. They trained their dog to detect them. That dog saved her from many nights at the hospital. Everyones pets are gorgeous!!!

The doggie pics posted so far are beautiful. I don’t know how to post into this thread but you can see pics of my two dogs on my page. Their names are Legend and Lore and they are a siberian/malamute mix and golden retriever, respectively.
My last cat would wake me up when my blood sugar was low. He was awesome!
You like cats?..Then you have to see this…
My old cat Buster, who still lives with my parents, used to wake me up when I was living at home and I’d get low. He’s getting pretty old though, and doesn’t seem to be too interested in that game anymore when I visit.
I live with two cats who do not seem to be too clued in to hypos (fortunately I usually am). However, my sister’s cat is pretty talented on the keyboard. Doesn’t do so well wearing shoes though.
Hej, there are definitely dog people out here. In my photo you see my sweet Skye, a curly coated retriever. Molly who is listed as a friend on my page has a dog that warns her about hypos. Yes, diabetics are not just cat people! I am inseparable from my dog! I love him to pieces
My dog, Mr. Big, has woken me up when I’m sleeping about 6 times when my blood sugar was low. I wish I knew how to train him to do it every time. If anyone knows where to go for advice on this, please hit me back! thanks!
I grew up with dogs and cats and I’m allergic to both. As an adult I have had 2 dogs but don’t have any now.
Hi Linda. Happy to meet another dog and cat lover! There are many many dog and cat lovers here in the community =) Ive always believed that my dog Snowy (W.Terrier) have alerted me when I was about to and presently low…a number of times (though untrained). Coincidence…maybe… But my buddies has always played a major part in all of my recuperation process…being it from an accident I incurred 2 years ago, to depression, to simply putting a smile on my face…
Meet Snowy, Candy and cat Twinkle and Twinkie
Hunter looks like my cat, Madeline. I also have a little dog, Abie.
