Thanks Marje :cat:
It's funny I did a searched on our site and put in sub fluids/and insulin and I came across you had said one time
It’s best to try and give fluids as the BG is headed up, often at the end of the cycle. I didn't want to post this for Z so that's why I tagged you lol

Late in the cycle so if you are home by +8 or +9 in the a.m. cycle, you could give it then. It’s best not to give it from onset to nadir.

Darn, I get home right at +12. I think we’ll be okay with the SubQ fluids only on the weekends then. I’ve been adding bone broth to her meals so hopefully that will be enough during the week.

Is it possible to give at +11? I could try to wake up earlier in the AM to get that in if so.

Not every cat sees a drop in BG with fluids but it’s more common than not. If you give it at +11 and shoot at +12, you might be faced with the BG bring too low to shoot. I don’t think +11 is ideal.

Why don’t you try it once in the evening at +3 and see if it affects her? Maybe do it on the weekend so if she does go low, you won’t have to worry about being exhausted at work the next day?
