This is super helpful, thank you <3 The variability of prognoses is part of what made that first day so overwhelming and scary. We are waiting on...
Thank you both so much! I assumed Lantus was dedicated to dosing, so I didn't post there, but I will do so tomorrow if you think it would help....
Great idea on the tuna water! The chart on Tanya's site suggests she's already in Stage 2 based on the SDMA levels. I do have the lab results right...
Hi all, It has been a while! My new job has been keeping me extremely busy, so I haven't been able to say hello as much as I would've liked. Lily...
I'm the lucky one :) It's all thanks to DCIN for sharing urgent cats who would otherwise be sentenced to death for an illness they can't help. Thank...
Hi everyone!! It has been a long time since I last posted. I wanted to say hello because I missed this wonderful community, and I have some happy...
Hi everyone! I was just looking at Amazon's Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals, and they have the PetSafe 5 meal feeder on a lightning deal for $25 for...
Way to go Emmy! And way to go Brittney for figuring out testing so quickly! "Normal" for a cat on a human meter will be anywhere from 50 to 120. 200s...
Hi Brittney! I'm sure this diagnosis is overwhelming--Winnie was already diabetic when I adopted her, and I felt overwhelmed by all the info with...
Yes! I've had great luck with this 5 meal feeder: https://www.amazon.com/PetSafe-5-Meal-Automatic-Pet-Feeder/dp/B000GEWHNS There's space for an ice...
It depends somewhat on which flavor you're feeding. Winnie is around 10-11 pounds and 2 cans of the classic chicken (~180 calories) per day maintains...
Wow, that's so high! Was he on steroids? Poor guy. Seriously, kudos to you for picking up testing so quickly. You likely saved his life by doing so.
I just read your other thread and am wondering what BG numbers your vet saw to diagnose Zuko, because he seems well within normal range in both of...
Thank you everyone for your help and company! She was at 359 preshot this morning and seemed annoyed that the delicious gravy didn't make a...
203 at 2 hours after the initial hypo test. I set down 1/4 more can of the FF gravy lovers and am ready to snooze.
And on the facebook group and DCIN too :( I'm more than happy for Winnie to be an example of why testing is so important... It was a struggle to...
Thanks everyone! I'll make sure I'm up and testing til +7, then. She's at 213 at 1.25 hours after high carb food. In a very content mood with all of...
+5.5 after shot. Her nadir seems to be around +5, so I'll feel safe going to bed a bit after +6, especially if she's over 200 and rising. I've...
185 at 45 minutes after initial hypo. Looks like I'll hold off on coffee :)
Well, we just had Winnie's first hypo. Tested before bed at +4.5: 37. Immediate retest, 34. Fed 1/2 can FF gravy lovers, 1/8 can FF chicken classic...
