1/10 Belle, AMPS 408, +8 127, PMPS 213

yesterdays post http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/1-9-belle-amps-464-3-5-236-pmps-125.189387/

AMPS @ 1215pm, BG 408
1u + meal

 

I hope Belle heads back down for you and you get some poop soon.

 

his BG is always high @ AMPS whenever dry food is left out over night (even just limited amount)

 

We had a member that on removing dry completely from the household went from 5.5u to OTJ in a week, when Linda took all the cats off kibble (he was stealing a few pieces here and there) http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/1-10-belle-amps-408.189432/

Here's the link to the sshttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqyJS-ud54lgdHU2S2FwczByM3YwU2JjRFduOWJLUHc#gid=19
Look at Feb 18th

Another one is Spider, started transitioning of all dry diet from 6/4
By 6/8 he was on all wet
By 6/15 he was OTJ
Here's the SS in the remarks CG documents all the food given.

Have you or managed to find any low carb dry that he would eat?

Is there any reason you can't leave wet down for him in the garage over night? Maybe several portions in a timed feeder if he has a tendancy to wolf the wet down.

 

sometimes he might go low at night and there is no one around, having dry food available helps him in case he gets low in the middle of night.

 

i am thinking about going back to EVO.
unless if i hear other recommendations
(i know ppl recommended Young Again, but that is out of budget range)

i do hv some wet food out at night, but he never finish the wet food overnight.

 

dinner 630pm

+ 8 @ 8pm, BG 127

 

PMPS @ 12am, BG 213
1u + left over + snack

(no dry food overnight)

no poop

 

Helena, if you looked at the SS I linked above, you can see that the insulin needs can reduced dramatically and very quickly,when the dry (high carb food) was take out of the picture. (5u to nothing in a week)

Please be cautious when removing the dry, it is advisable to do it slowly. We don't want Belle's BG to bottom out suddenly.
