    So Mauer ate dry diabetes food. It's a mistake I haven't taken it away and I'll do so right away.
    But her BG was 292 at +6

    I've ordered porta21 witch she's had before, catz finefood canned and ferringa with I used pre-diabetes. And then I've bought some MUSH Vaisto a month or so ago, got new supplies today. Mush is barf prepared and in small balls of 25g. She gets 5-6 small balls a day about 125-150g. Morning, midt day and night usually before her shots.
    Mostly because I'm scared she won't eat and then we have an emergency.
    She always have canned food available day and night. Dry is also available at all times, but she eats nearly nothing dry. It's only there to ensure food is always available. I have her brother Miver too, so in case something runs out they won't starve.
    I'm planning on doing what I've been doing, mainly barf and canned and only dry for insurance.
    Plan is getting Miver on board he's just not crazy about barf at all not even with parmesan cheese. Dry food is in their own surefeeder so Mauer can't get to Mivers and vice versa.
    Treats are sticks with 92-95% meat, or Orijen dry, or purizon dry and treats besides the sticks are maybe once a week.

    Is my plan diabetes friendly?
    They thrive on free access to food, so I prefer not to have planned feeding.
    I assume the rise in BG is due to the crappy diabetes food.

    It could be just the dry. I hate to say it because I understand totally why you are leaving it out. But your kitty could be very sensitive to it.

    Just had a chat with my sister, who almost laughed her butt off.
    When I said barf, did you think barf - vomit?
    I just now realized barf might not be what you call raw. :banghead:

    It has me laughing so hard I was crying and had to run to the bathroom. Everytime I thought about little barf balls I would chuckle the rest of the night. Made work bearable.
