I think I would try some LC to slow her a bit. The +2 number of 225 is a nice safe number and she is not in any danger at all. You just want to slow her down from dropping too fast to help with bouncing.
 
How does she react to high carb? Does it give her a great bump and slow her down a good bit? If yes, it might be too heavy handed. It really depends on the cat. It was a decent drop, I would slow her up a tad, but what food does that is something you need to figure out, maybe low carb or even medium carb would do it? Whatever you decide to try, note it for future reference so you can establish which foods do what for her.

Good call with the increase, it looks like she needed a little nudge in the right direction. Bella is doing really great, I hope she’s feeling a lot better too! :cat:

She ate more than 2 ounces of regular food couldn’t get her eat the high carb. She was full

Could someone please do it?

Janet, keep your SS up to date today so we can have ease of seeing what is going on and don't have to scroll back through the thread to find the number information.
 
She might want to eat a bit in a while. Like I said, she is not in any danger so please don't be concerned.

How much do you feed her at the AM and PM feeding? And when does she eat again?

She ate 2 plus ounces of chunky turkey fancy feast 6% carbs. Ate so fast she was dry heaving afterwards. No vomiting
She usually eats anywhere from 2 Tbs to 2 ounces every 3-4 hours
Refused high carb food ( full)
I try again in an hour or so.

Actually, this is yesterday's link that you continued on this AM. No worries, you'll learn as you go along. Tomorrow, start a new one. My head was spinning when I first arrived here. I had to learn about Feline Diabetes AND how to navigate a message board both of which I was new too. And throw sleep deprivation into the mix :rolleyes: ah yi yi!

We will help you as you go along. :cat:

If I’m reading your notes correctly, she ate 2oz of 6% (LC) at +3. So you essentially fed that +3 number. If that’s the case, grab a +4 to see what effect the meal may have had on the BG. That is important data to gather in your most important mission which is to “Know thy cat”.

She’s 242 @+4
 
Does anyone have any idea if the fancy feast treats mentioned previously are ok to give her???
I am using that treat since my cat diagnosed and it does not affect her BG. I gave her 1 pack everyday.

I think even the normal treat if you gave it in small amount like one piece it is ok.
