Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Although scientific research has not been as extensive as in humans, we now have proof that cats, dogs and horses can suffer from diabetes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Diabetes mellitus is a common disease in dogs and cats occurring in about 1:30 to 1:40 pets. The most common form of diabetes in dogs resembles type 1 diabetes in humans, sometimes referred to as insulin dependent.

Detailed explanation-3: -Type I occurs when the pancreas does not make enough insulin, and type II occurs when the body can not respond normally to the amount of insulin made by the pancreas. Although diabetes in pets is sometimes classified as Type I or II, the difference between the types is less clear in pets than it is in humans.
