Latifah was found wandering the streets in 2005 - presumably thrown out by her owners when she became ill. I started fostering Latifah for the shelter on March 17, 2006 to transition her from the dry food and canned food diet she got there to a low-carbohydrate diet. Her insulin needs decreased immediately from 3 units twice daily to less than 1 unit twice daily - and her blood sugar was much better controlled. I grew so enamoured with her, I adopted her on October 21, 2006. More at this url
