Cinco was a neighborhood stray that took up residence in our yard. We started to feed him and get to know him and noticed he was drinking and peeing a lot. Got him to the vet and he was diagnosed with FD. He went into DKA, but we got him through that. Achieved remission, but fell out after a year. Then he got ocular lymphoma and glaucoma. Lost both of his eyes, but he still found his way around the house. I swear he counted steps! We lost him to his third round of cancer in 2016.
