Pet Diabetic Glucose Tracker

Online Pet Diabetic Glucose Tracker

Our Pet Diabetes Tracker is free and easy to use. Simply enter each glucose reading along with the date and time, and the tracker will securely retain the information for ongoing reference.

You can turn the saved readings into a printable chart or generate a table containing all recorded results to share with your veterinarian. Reports can be viewed and printed for the past 30, 60, or 90 days, or you can select “All Readings” to see your pet’s complete history. Each report also displays the average glucose reading for the selected time period.

A free BellenPaws.com account is required so your pet’s glucose records can be saved and tracked over time. There is no limit to the number of pets you can add to a single account, making the tracker useful for both individual pet owners and rescue groups, shelters, or other pet organizations managing multiple animals.

Additional information and step-by-step instructions are available on the Diabetic Tracker Overview page.

Blank Pet Diabetic Glucose Tracking Forms

Use these free printable forms to record your diabetic pet’s blood glucose levels, insulin injections, meals, routine care, and full glucose curve results.

Select any form to open it as a PDF. From there, you can print it directly through your browser or save a copy to your computer, phone, or tablet for later use. The entire collection is also available as a single downloadable ZIP file.

When you are ready, the glucose readings documented on the forms can be transferred into our Pet Diabetes Tracker for ongoing digital recordkeeping.

Rope Calculator for Cat Scratching Posts

We created this rope calculator for anyone planning to build a homemade cat scratching post or cat tree.

The idea came from my own experience making all of our cat trees, along with a few for friends. One of the most frustrating parts of each project was trying to estimate how much rope I would need before I started wrapping. Buying a few rolls and discovering halfway through that you need several more can bring the entire project to a stop.

I had already been using a paper calculation to estimate the required rope, so I decided to turn that formula into a simple online calculator that anyone can use before purchasing supplies or beginning a build.

Senior Cat and Dog Calculators

Senior Cat Age Calculator Senior Dog Age Calculator

Knowing when your cat or dog has entered their senior years can help you better understand changing health, comfort, and care needs. Our free age calculators estimate your pet’s age in human years and indicate whether they may be considered a senior, giving you a familiar frame of reference for their stage of life.

The estimates are based on general scientific findings and size-related aging patterns rather than specific breeds. While senior pets may benefit from extra support, regular checkups, and a few added comforts, they still have plenty of love and companionship to give.

Petfinder for Senior Pets

Help a senior pet find a loving home by searching adoptable cats and dogs through Petfinder. Our senior pet search links open Petfinder with the age filter already set to “Senior” and your approximate location added whenever it can be detected, helping you quickly find older pets available near you.

Because location detection is based on your internet connection, the results may occasionally show a nearby city or region. Once on Petfinder, you can enter your ZIP code or city and adjust the search radius to narrow the results to your area.
