? 4/11/19 || Ben and Darwin update - dosing Q

[Tasha & Darwin]

Hello everyone!

So sorry it's been so long since posting! We've been so busy with our home-buying, and packing here! We closed today - woohoo! All three of the kitties are handling the packing remarkably well - it's such a surprise. Darwin and our civvie, Maddie, have even been playing in/on the moving boxes

I'm also super happy that Darwin just took immediately to his new food! I had put him back on FF Classics after RadCat went away because he wasn't really doing as well on Answers, and I couldn't find a good alternative. He's now eating Nature's Variety Instinct GF pate, and he loves it! He took to it right away! He's put on 1 lb, so he's not loving the stricter diet he's been on, but his BGs are remaining well within normal limits, which is GREAT!

Ben seems to be doing really well, too! He feels well enough, and his numbers continue to do great. He hadn't "earned" a reduction the typical way, so I went ahead and followed the reduction protocol if numbers were normal for 7 days, and he is handling the reductions really well. Would love if someone could look at his SS, and see if they would recommend to reduce again? I'm just not sure where to go from here...though I am thrilled with his numbers!

Sending out vines, and kitty nudges!

Congrats on closing on your house. How exciting. I'm glad the kitties are doing well with the packing. My kitties would be playing in the boxes too. I'm glad Darwin is still doing well. Ben's SS looks so pretty. I would try a reduction for Ben and see how it goes. If his numbers start creeping back up you can always increase. Execept for th 134 on the morning of April 5, he has been under 120 for seven days.

Numbers for Ben look great! Have you had to intervene with food to keep him above 50?

Congratulations on your new house. How exciting

Ben's numbers look great! I'd keep doing what you've been doing.
