We're going to try 3.5 units today. We have the syringes with the 1/2 units. Thank you!
Hi All, So, Petey's numbers seem to be all over the place. Our vet says that if he tests over 150 we should give him 4 units and if he is under,...
Thank you! We did get ahold of the vet who confirmed that we should skip the morning dose and test before giving the PM dose.
Hi All, I am trying to decide wether or not to give Petey any insulin this morning. I am hoping that maybe, just maybe he is going into remission....
Hi All, I am remotely helping my mom who has 2 cats, Petey and Charlie. Petey is the one that was diagnosed with diabetes back in July. She is...
Janet... I'm going to try the Dr. Elsey's and Young Again Zero Carb. Do you leave out a combination of both all day?
Sorry, I didn't see this response until now. Yeah, the issue was avoiding missing not one but two shots. In any case, we are 6 days later and Petey...
Indeed it does... Thank you for all of your support, Janet!
Done. Well, I was giving him his 2 units at 8am and 8pm. Last night I didn't give him his 2 units until 9pm (because I got home late). My plan...
I just put the 311 as this mornings reading. I only tested him twice yesterday. Are you seeing it on my spreadsheet? Btw, you might not see...
Going okay. Your cats sound a lot like ours. They are brothers and on the bigger side. Believe or not the one that doesn't have diabetes is more...
Hi All, My cat (Petey) has been on insulin for 2 weeks now. I just started home testing today. He was 430 this morning before I fed him and 355 6...
Janet... I notice you feed your cat Young Again Zero Carb. Are you pleased with it? We have 2 cats and they are alone for a good chunk of the day...
Thanks! I don't know if I pricked him too hard because he flinched and definitely felt it! A little more blood came out then I saw in your video...
Sorry, Janet! I just noticed your question from Monday. The BG reading was done at the vet approx 5 after his shot. I just did my first home test...
Thank you, JanetNJ! Went to vet today and his numbers were still in the 400s. She recommended we go up from 1 to 2 units. When I asked about home...
Thanks everyone. I've been feeding Petey more canned food and he seems a little more himself. Taking him to the vet later today and will likely...
Thanks for all of the feedback. Yes, we have dry food out because of our other cat. Petey doesn't really eat much of the dry food anyway, at least...
Is there any harm in giving him extra wet food if he is still hungry?
He seems to always be hungry. He drinks and pees fairly often. We are feeding him fancy feast classic. 1/2 can in the morning and 1/2 can at night....
