Yesterday Squallie is full of beans today, lol. Busy day for mama

 

Squallie, your are just rocking this dance! Keep up the great work!

 

Beansy Squallie Gets no better than that !!

 

Thanks, Amanda!

 

You are so right!

 

What is going on this cat's BG???? His numbers are crazy, up and down all over the place! It looks to me like the lo-carb foods he usually eats are driving his BG up. He got 5% food this morning to buffer the insulin with that AM reading of 72, this is what I would normally do and it's never been a problem, but his BG went up a lot after breakfast today. Then at lunch he had his usual 2.75% food and still his BG went up after he ate. Scratching my head here, wondering what my next step - and his next meal - should be.

 

Lucy, the + 3 test with a - 20% variance is about 81 which is only 5 points from the AMPS . I do see that his +3 is usually lower. Was he sitting in a window today at +3 and saw a squirrel? So many things can influence their BGs. The good news is that his +5 was lower than yesterday's. These kitties are going to kill us, LOL

 

My advice with our senior kitties is to go with the flow! Those are excellent numbers.

 

I think they have off days every now and then like we do. Squallie is still looking good and the most important thing is that he feels good.

 

So agree, Ella , on going with the flow especially with our senior kitties . How Elmo is acting is as important as anything else .
