I've been wanting to try potato flakes instead of honey to carb Felix up (since he'll eat only the one kind of wet food, so we can't do MC and HC), but when he's gone low, I've felt better sticking with what we know. Last night, when he was down to 54 at +2, seemed like a good time to try it, so I gave 1/8 tsp potato flakes in a bit of food. He licked his bowl clean! It seemed to give a smaller but more sustained bump up than honey does. The next time he goes below 50, I think I'll try 1/4 tsp.
He woke me up at +8 meowing and running up and down the hallway, so I tested in case his BG was making him agitated, but he was at a nondescript 189. We've had some cool weather come in, so maybe he was just invigorated. It feels so good to wear something with sleeves.
