Just a quick update on Kitty since I don't post every day anymore. Still jumping up into the blues sometimes, usually in the mornings, but she's doing well.

The reason I'm posting today is because I noticed her behavior was slightly unusual when I got home from work today. Her food dish and her automatic feeder were moved around the floor out of their usual positions which usually only happens when she tries to lick up every last tiny morsel of food and ends up pushing the bowls around the floor. She hasn't done this since before she became regulated and was starving all the time trying to get every tiny bit of food she could. Not sure if I'm just being too observant or what, it just seemed like she had more of an appetite when I got home from work today, she was vocal around feeding time which she usually is not vocal about food anymore.

Then again, she was all hyped up too because a fly had found its way into the house while I was away at work and my cats instantly turn into killing machines anytime they see a flying insect of any sort.

Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well.

Did she finish all the food in the slots? I don't quite see her having gone that low today. But I can definitely envision the cats flying around the house knocking into everything to get the fly lol

I don't think she went that low today either. I just thought it was unusual behavior for her. Also, she didn't finish all the food in the slots, it looked like she had a nibble from the +8 snack but didn't finish it before it closed at +10 because most of it was left in there when I opened it to clean it.

She might have gotten into the 50’s though making her hungrier. She’s looking really good. She’s been in mostly green numbers for more than 7 days. I would try a reduction.

I would try a reduction.

Are you sure? I just worry because she's still been as high as 114 recently. I know that under 120 is normal range for a non-diabetic cat, but it just seems like the people I see here doing reductions are either hitting light greens or they are staying in the green more frequently. In the past week Kitty's AMPS has been blue more times than green.

It’s just the amps that’s blue and only one at 114. One way to earn reductions is a week in mostly green. The other is to go under 50. You dint have to try it. Give the 1.0 a little longer if you want and see if the green amps continue.
