Annie our past kitty was also diagnosed with it. Our vet prescribed pills that we actually were able to fill at the local pharmacy via a prescription from the vet. A lot more affordable via the Wall Mart pharmacies.
Your cat will probably start drinking tons of water. A side effect of the condition and meds. The cream sounds a lot easier than pills, although by getting a stone mortar, we were able to turn the pills into powder and mix with wet food. You also might see a bit of a mood change until the meds get into the system and your kitty adjusts. In all, it’s manageable with meds and he/she can have a normal life for years to come. Like us humans, a little help is needed from time to time with medication..
Hope this helps.
Annie
