Wesson is doing well. Still mostly in the 50's to the 70's most of the day with a touch of an 80 or 90 here and there.

The Libre will end in 20 hours and life will look a little different. What are we doing now? Weekly testing?

Yup. Weekly initially and then monthly.

Were OTJ instructions shared? Here's an extract:
"Once he is through the trial successfully, you enter a new phase. Your cat is still diabetic but has now become diet-controlled. Continue feeding low carb food in the manner successful for your kitty. If you decide to change his feeding schedule, let your meter be your guide to the best times to feed. Avoid medications with sugar in them and steroid medications unless they are medically essential. Continue testing blood glucose weekly for the first month and then monthly forever. It's a good idea to weigh him monthly. Weight should remain stable. If he seems "off" or sick, or is showing signs of diabetes (excessive drinking, eating, urinating, weight loss), test his blood glucose right away. Keep the teeth and gums clean and healthy; dental issues can bring a cat out of remission. If you see rising blood glucose numbers, it's time for a visit to the vet!"
