Happy Caturday!

Johnny has had a fabulous day of sleeping in forts and getting some sun. Last night, he seemed to be feeling amazing. The boy played his little heart out with nary a hiss at his siblings who stopped by to see the show. He may have taken a few cat naps that I didn't see, but he was on the "go" from shot until +3. I love seeing a happy Johnny Cat.

Johnny the Steelers fan (I grew up outside of Pittsburgh) wants to know if there are any Green Bay kitties he can exchange some light-hearted trash talk with. I said I'd check. :lol:

On Thursday night, we opened a new vial of insulin. By his numbers, it looked like his shed must have been filling (or exchanging for the good stuff) the first day or so. He saw a nice 77 last night, but then today was flat yellows. So, we're thinking an increase is in order. He typically responds quickly to fresh insulin and this 0.1u doesn't seem to be enough.

Since we're at 0.1u right now, should be just bump up to .25u and see how that goes? Or maybe a fat .25u? We're home to monitor today and tomorrow and back to the grind (AMPS/PMPS/night spot checks on Mon).

Shot is due at 7:30 central time. I can check in a PMPS if that is needed for determining dose.

IMHO, given Johnny's history of being very sensitive to dose, I'd increase to 0.25u. It's more than doubling his current dose. I would also monitor carefully this evening if you increase. I'm going to bet that you may see an dropping number at PMPS.

Great point, Sienne. I didn't think of .25u already being more than double. Thanks---I hope you and your busy kitty crew are staying warm!

Hi Janice! Hi Johnny! Sorry, no Packers kitties here (I'm a former Minnesotan).

I agree with the increase and with the monitoring. It would be nice if Johnny would just flatten out a little lower instead of plunging. Did you hear that, Johnny?

Hi Libby! I'm looking forward to your milestone post coming up. :)

We shot the .25u tonight. He's 72 at +3, which is a definite dive, but I hope he hangs on and stays on his surf board! His PMPS was likely a little influenced by food. There wasn't much out, but I got in the shower and when I came out Johnny was taking a full-on grooming bath (who doesn't like to spread the scent of their meals all over them....anyone?) :lol:
 
Re: 2/5 Johnny PMPS 326 +3 (72) dose increase tonight

Good luck with the new dose!

I'm not saying anything against the Steelers, but... regulated BG is GREEN, GREEN Bay Packers wear GREEN. Coincidence??? I think not! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Seriously, have fun tomorrow!
 
Re: 2/5 Johnny PMPS 326 +3 (72) dose increase tonight

LOL Kathy! Maybe Johnny is taking the Steelers love a little too far with his flat yellows today. I didn't think of that.

Tomorrow, any kitties going between green and yellow will be Super Bowl predicting. :-D
