She's a happy cat today - I woke up the second time to find both she and Regan had jumped up on the bed and were purring away happily. I don't remember her choosing to sleep on the bed with us since I moved here at the end of 2013 so it was a really nice surprise to wake up to her curled up there like she used to when she was younger. The not sleeping on the bed had nothing to do with the diabetes - we know she didn't have that in September 2014 - so I've no idea why she decided it would be a good place again today but I hope she does it more often! And now we're up she's feeling playful too - she found a piece of hard plastic and has been chasing that around the room!
That's my good girl - she's so much better behaved on my days off. She must have heard I want to go out for a bit this afternoon so she's given me a number I'm happy leaving her at!
She went completely crazy for it - unfortunately it smells really, really bad so she'd better eat whatever we give her! I'd really been looking for freeze-dried tuna because I know she loves that, but I couldn't find any in our local Petco so I figured the shrimp would have to do instead. Apparently it's a good enough substitute at least for now.
Hopefully she'll just surf with no drama tonight - I'd really like a fairly quiet evening for once. We were out most of the afternoon so I missed a few tests but we decided the 130 was a safe number to leave her at for a few hours. We're going to have Michael try and test her with the new treats in a few minutes to see how he gets on. We thought it was best to try it with me in the house so that if she starts to get too stressed he can just stop and have me take over - I'm thinking she got stressed once or twice and then decided she didn't want him testing her at all so we have to take the stress factor out of it for her (and for him too if possible)!!
I'll have to take a look at one of those then - she'd really like those I think.
Failed experiment with having Michael doing the testing - she got really stressed again immediately. I don't know what to do next - her numbers are often too messed up in the mornings for me to leave her all day without testing
And now we're up she's feeling playful too - she found a piece of hard plastic and has been chasing that around the room! 
I guess maybe she was just getting bored with chicken
