How long a diabetic cat lives depends on disease control. Feline diabetes cannot be cured and requires long-term insulin injections; with good control the cat can live a long time. But without treatment, or if the cat is drug-resistant and uncontrolled, it may die within days. Therefore, after diagnosis the owner must inject insulin as the vet directs.
