There are a number of spreadsheets depending on which type of meter you use (human or pet), and the glucose scale used locally, pick the one you use and follow the instructions for set up and add the link to your signature together with other information, type of insulin used, food, date of diagnosis, cats name, your name - whatever else you feel is relevant. If you don't have a google account you will have to set one up. If you do log in then follow the instructions.
If you have problems with set up then someone will be able to help.

Understanding the spreadsheet/grid:
The colored headings at the top are the ranges of glucose values. They are color-coded to clue you in as to meaning.
Each day is 1 row. Each column stores different data for the day.
From left to right, you enter
the Date in the first column
the AMPS (morning, pre-shot, test) in the 2nd column
the Units given (turquoise column)
Then, there are 11 columns labeled +1 through +11
If you test at +5 (5 hours after the shot), you enter the test number in the +5 column
If you test at +7 (7 hours after the shot), you enter the test number in the +7 column
and so on.
Halfway across the page is the column for PMPS (evening, pre-shot, test)
To the right is another turquoise column for Units given at the evening shot.
There is second set of columns labeled +1 through +11
If you snag a before bed test at +3, you enter the test number in the +3 column.
We separate day and night numbers like that because many cats go lower at night.
The nadir is the lowest glucose between shots. There is a general period when it will happen which is specific to the insulin being used and testing then helps make sure your cat doesn't go too low.
It is merely a grid for storing the info; no math required.

If you go to sheets.google.com, it should bring you to your sheets on Google drive. When you click on his chart, you can just bookmark that page where you edit everything. That's what I did and then it's very easy access
