    Yesterday

    Yes:D lots of green! We are not enjoying it as much as we should or normally would! The gabapentin helped a bunch; I've only given him the one 50mg capsule yesterday. It knocked him out to the point where he couldn't move much so I won't give it until he obviously needs it. He is up this morning to the water bowl and LB. And to play/pick fights with Campa and Ray. He is still hoarse, maybe a little less. Still having some noise/problem when swallowing. Able to eat. He purred for me pre test. So overall pretty good I guess!

    We are so grateful for the help and support here!
    Didn't take new pics yesterday, but got a little video of how I spend a lot of my time now that Ray has taken over our lives LOL! Can't get it to post because it says it has the wrong extension...anyone know what to do there?

    Wow. That's quite a drop at +2. Think he might need a little MC?

    Nope he is eating fine again! He is a little cranky but mostly recovered. Even getting his voice back.

    I do have some baby food on hand that I bought for Ray. She and Campa LOVE it. I'm sure Tiger would too. I think it is 3% carb.
    I would love to feed her all the different foods there are here!!! We surely could find some she would like!

    DH says he will watch for the package lol

    I was trying to keep him above 50. it's better for him to stay on the dose right?

    Not necessarily. If whatever was causing the high numbers (ear infection/mites) is resolved plus the steroid is leaving his body, he should come down the dosing ladder.

    Switch to LC from the next test. If he wants that reduction, let him have it.

    Looks like it! Don't feed and test in an hour. That would be 2 hours after the last meal.
    Though I think he should be headed up now.

    Are you giving Bandit regular insulin also now?
