| honeymoon |
Not the wedding type, but used to refer to periods when your cat spontaneously begins producing insulin again, either for a short time or for years. As far as I know, cats are the only animals that do this. Obviously, if your cat is producing its own insulin, it won't need its injections.

Honey is a natural antibacterial substance, making it quite useful in the treatment of wounds. It contains Hydrogen Peroxide, which it releases slowly, killing any germs that are in the wound. It contains other properties that help generate tissue, possibly Vitamin C and amino acids.

| honeymoon |
A period where the diabetic enters a phase of either reduced insulin requirement, or requires no exogenous insulin. The "honeymoon" happens relatively soon after diagnosis (weeks to months) and is temporary. It may be related to irregular functioning of beta cells. "Honeymoon" occurs in dogs, cats, and humans. The term "honeymoon" is often used interchangeably with "transient diabetes" - but they have different meanings.
