Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Assistance Program
This program assists low- or limited-income individuals keep their diabetic cats in their original and adopting homes and appropriately treated by providing insulin, blood glucose testing supplies, and on occasion veterinary care. The DCIN Assistance Program also provides similar assistance to animal shelters and rescues.
Rehoming Program
This program helps to rehome at-risk diabetic cats from shelters, rescues, and private homes to a safer living situation, ideally to a committed adoptive home that is willing to appropriately treat the cats' Feline Diabetes. With this program, DCIN guides the surrendering and receiving parties on information they need to make an appropriate informed choice about placement. DCIN also usually coordinates and pays for the costs of the rehoming.
Education Program
Under this program, DCIN helps shelters, rescues, and individual caregivers of cats with Feline Diabetes understand how best to care for their cats. Often, this involves directing the caregivers to other Internet sites that provide guidance on the appropriate care of cats with Feline Diabetes.
