I made an appointment for tomorrow morning. I am so worried about her. She been sleeping most the day and hasn’t eaten except for a few treats....
Hi! My cat, Lulu, is 13, overweight, and been diabetic for about a year and a half. At one point, she went into remission for several months and...
My cat Lulu has been in remission for several months. However; I’ve noticed that she has been peeing a little more and drinking more lately. I...
Hi! Just checking in again to get some input. I've been checking Lulu consistently now for awhile and her numbers have mostly been in the low 100's...
Thanks!! That would be awesome if I didn't have to give her insulin anymore and just spot check her! I will continue to check her at least twice...
What is an OTJ trial? Whatever it is, I haven't been intentionally doing it. :-). I realize the numbers are good, but I thought with a diabetic...
Hi again everyone! I need some advice. I was out of town for a few days and had my cat sitter give Lulu 1/2 unit of insulin morning and night...
Thanks for the help. I will tell the cat sitter to do that! Thanks!
I am leaving tomorrow afternoon around 4pm. The cat sitter will be coming around 6:30pm and 6:30pm. All of the morning readings are pre-food. I...
Alrighty...I think I figured out the spreadsheet. I noticed that Lulu is kind of all over the place. It's only been a week since I have started to...
Morning! I tried to set up the spreadsheet using my iPad last night and had trouble. So I am going to bring home my laptop and try with that....

I don't know. I haven't had that happen yet.
Is that lower than expected?? She was 257 last night and I only gave her 1 unit. What should I have expected?
Yes. I am leaving a little later today so I can check her again. She hasn't eaten a lot yet though, which is weird for her. Normally she is in...
Thanks for or the advice! And the directions for the spreadsheet. I will work on that tonight. :-)
Thanks for all of the advice, especially about the food as well! If someone could send me a link to a blank spreadsheet, I will put it together as I...
I think the timing of everything is going to be what is difficult for me! Before, when I was automatically giving her 7 units like the vet...
I usually give her insulin about 30 mins after she has eaten which is typically around 7:00ish. However, she's not a huge night eater, so that's why...
I ended up giving her 3 units and I think she handled it fine. I got home at 5pm tonight and tested her right away. She was 117. That's pretty...
