Miss Polly's droopy tail again. Moving slowly. And scared of me. Sometimes. I'm herding her into the t/f/s place with lots of twists and turns as she tries to escape the oncoming looming beast, but she'll jump up on her counter, let me love on her there, and if I sit on the floor in there, she'll come for scritches. But out in the main house, if I'm around, she isn't. Just came home from walking the dog, she was in the living room window. Immediately got down and went to the bedroom, under the bed. Will go out into the enclosure if I go in the cat room, back into the cat room if I go out in the enclosure. Yet last night she slept on the bed and even nested on my chest for a bit during the early-dark morning. Just weird.
It's almost like the scaredy Polly of three years ago.
Eating, drinking, peeing and pooping just fine. No fever. Pink. Good respiration and capillary recall. Here we go again.
Last droopy tail lasted 4 or so days. Hope this fades more quickly!
If we're still droopy after a few days, I'll email CSU. But they'll tell me to take her to my vet for bloodwork, a curve, and to consider lowering her dose 'cuz she's probably getting close to hypoglycemia. That's what they said last time.
So, some light for the girl.
The good news. I'm liking that this dose is doing well.

It occurs to me that I have read, Lantus is acidic and I have read of other cats who did better on Lev for that reason. I have asked our vet and she is agreeable, but at our last visit, I decided to give Lantus a little while longer to see if we can get Tiger regulated. Just wondering if you had any input?
