Dear Jamie and the GPDD Family,

You are correct that diabetes can cause weight loss. Once again this is 
why I asked if the vet had done a simple dip stick urinalysis test to 
check for glucose in the urine. Also many cavies that have diabetes have 
developed it due to parasitic infection of the pancreas.They also drink 
lots of water over 90 ml/day if the diabetes is severe.

Cheers,
