late on Sunday evening after felling unwell for a few days and blood sugars a bit up and down I fell into a diabetic coma, my wife had gone to bed around 9.45 and I stayed up watching telly, the next thing I remember is coming around surrounded by a paramedic and my wife wondering what was going on, I had been given two lots of glucose solution and my blood glucose was still only 1.4, my wife told me that our cat Padfoot [ paddy ] had gone into our bedroom and pawed at her face to alert her and then brought her to me, I am very proud of paddy because another hour and I might not have made it, thank you Paddy my hero.

Too much Bugs Bunny methinks :) If he's a "Tassie devil", give him some rabbit :) .... and yep, being an Australian and seeing them up close, they ARE fierce little buggers.

Still, he IS a hero. Wonderful story
 
Love it :) .... and I do not like cats at the best of times but learnt to live with the neighbour's Burmese.

For some reason, they love ME !!. Cuddle this one though :)
 
Well done Paddy. You're a star. Lovely to know you've got help at hand if you need it :cat:
