What’s it called when all the treats are gone? A cat-astrophe.

G'morning everyone! I hope you're all sunning at the beach. We're doing just fine over here. Mom is doing much better too. Looks like we will go back tomorrow Monday 12/28. Unless something changes.

I'm wondering how do we adjust the dose when we go back -- when and how and how much? Thanks everyone and have a great day.

 

Glad to hear that your mom is doing much better. I am sure it must be a relief to be able to spend time with her without having to worry about Squeaky going low.

I guess you would go back to your last dose of 3.75U, right @tiffmaxee ?

 

Yes. It was a good dose for him.

 

I'm glad your mom is doing better. Yes you go back to the last good dose.

 

Glad your mom is better and you got to visit.

Safe travels tomorrow.

 

Thanks everyone. Guess what. Squeaky was 86 at 7.5 today. Yet he ate well all day today. I will feed him some high carb so I can go back to be with my mom. Do you think any chance of him going lower right now since he is past nadir?

Do you think 2 units is too much for tomorrow's trip? i guess I should see what his numbers are and then decide if I should skip tomorrow or not. Or tonight.....

4:23 pm 86
8:44 am 256
2:55 am 296
8:58 pm 307

 

So much for worry free! Cute Squeaky! See what the PMPS is. I would get ve smething rather than skip.

 

There is also the possibility he might bounce and be perfectly safe.

I would test in a couple hours. Some cats will nadir later when they are breaking a bounce.

 

So he is bouncing now, 440 at +9. We'll be on the road, I'll test again and looks like a full shot, don't you think? Unless it is down. If down it'll be 2. If same or up, perhaps full shot 3.75?

Hope everyone is having a good day.

 

Stick to 2U till you get home. When do you get home? Tonight?

 

Safe travels!

 

Safe travels. I agree with Bhooma. You don’t want to need to test while on the road

 

Sending safe travel prayers.

 

Thanks everyone!

Whoops well he tested at PS at 9:50 at 450. So I gave him 3.75.

Good thing this isn't an exact science huh? He peed in the box, I cleaned it up, gave him a break, tested and shot. Now I;m using Mc Donald's wifi. Will be home in about 6 hours or so. Oh my. I need a bigger car to travel with my cat......

 

With the bounce he should be just fine. I just didn’t want you to test during your drive. You can just give him mc or hc food as needed to minimize test s and he drop.
