Good morning

We had a pretty crappy day of mostly pink yesterday, but I suppose that was to be expected! We are starting out pretty low today, so we'll see how it goes. I'm just thankful Coops is all better now and no more vomiting.

As for the rest of you—humans and kitties alike—I hope it's a great Thursday!

Yesterday's pinks were to be expected after a skip but he's recovered well.
Expecting big things from you today Cooper!

 

[Mikanmama (Mikan GA)]

So glad to hear that Cooper's doing better!
And good start!
Surf safely and kindly today!

 

[Staci & Ivy]

So glad Cooper is feeling better. Paws crossed for a great day! Safe surfing, Cooper

Preshot is 129! I am stalling and will test again in 20 minutes, but I may need assistance after that if anyone is around.

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

I just woke up so will be around. He’s been pretty flat for most of the am cycle so might not rise much.
As long as you have high carb food and honey or karo and can monitor closely this cycle, you will be ok to shoot. But wait for the stall to see what he does.

Does maple syrup also work? I do have honey, but it's down toward the bottom of the bottle so quite thick. I'm sure it'd still work. I also have HC food still.

I'm supposed to leave out to dinner soon, but shouldn't be gone for more than 2 hours (likely less). Think I would be safe to do that?

I'll retest in a few minutes and see!

 

[Gabrielle17]

Okay, 141 now. What's the verdict?

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

Yes shoot.
And both the honey and maple syrup are ok to use if needed.
You should be ok to go out to dinner. Give him a good meal now.
I have to go out in 2 hours for an hour but will otherwise be around all day if needed. test as soon as you come home. He might bounce from the lower Preshot… or he might not. He’s a cat!
Good boy Cooper! and enjoy dinner!

 

[Gabrielle17]

Great, thank you! We shall see what mood he's in lol!

 

[Staci & Ivy]

Great, thank you! We shall see what mood he's in lol!

Good luck, Gabrielle! Paws crossed. Be good Cooper!

 

[Mikanmama (Mikan GA)]

Hope all goes well - I'm sure Cooper will do well. Enjoy your dinner!

 

[Gabrielle17]

Good luck, Gabrielle! Paws crossed. Be good Cooper!

Hope all goes well - I'm sure Cooper will do well. Enjoy your dinner!

Thank you both! He has been kind of stagnant today, but hey, at least it's blue!

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

Woo Hoo...I see green at +4.

 

[Gabrielle17]

Looks like he's going for it tonight!! Also looks like I'm staying up for a bit!

 

[Gabrielle17]

Well that green was short-lived LOL.

Should I get one more test in before going to bed though? Since it's still in the low 100's?

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

Sorry just seeing this. Are you still up?
I’d get another test if you are…if it’s still on the way up, leave some out and go to bed.

 

[Gabrielle17]

Looks like he's going up! I put some food into his feeder and set it for about an hour from now. I hope that was what you meant lol! Of course, I let him lick the spoon because he got very excited to eat lol.

I'm off to bed. Enjoy your day!

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

He is having a great cycle. No bounce so far and still staying fairly flat.
Always celebrate a diabetic cat who likes to eat!
