    I am continuing to follow TR with Boots. I was happy with numbers yesterday in the yellow. Today’s were a bit higher. Should I increase her to 8u tomorrow or stay at 7.5u?

    And could the % of carbs in her food cause this? Yesterday she had mostly FF which is 3% carbs whereas she sometimes gets Friskies Pate which is about 6% carbs. Thoughts?

    Unless you see blue tonight I would increase to your 8.0 in the morning per TR.

    Elise has given solid advice on dosing. Something that is slightly higher LC but still LC shouldn't make a huge difference. Depending on how carb sensitive your cat is. I suspect she's bouncing from yesterday's yellows.

    Wendy or anyone,
    Can you explain the bounce? I do not understand what is happening when they bounce. Thanks

    I found the definition for a “bounce”. I understand it now. Thanks anyway
