Re: 3/11: Cedric AMPS 255
Not too shabby of a start to the day. Hopefully he will do as well on that dose as he did the other day.

Betcha he surfed the blues again today while you were away. As that is just about textbook perfect for that kind of a cycle to have happened...Don't you wish they made a collar we could put on them that would take their BGs all day and we could just read a print out at night to see how they did while we were away?

Just tested him again after getting off the phone with cjleo...302.
I have been having a terrible time with bubbles in the syringe this week. I'd like to try that trick you mentioned, but it seems like I haven't pulled any insulin out of the pen! It looks as full as the day I got it! Since it is expired, I will sometimes draw more than I need and squirt it out into the sink to get rid of the bubble. What a hassle!
Cedric seems to like his new scratching post. I keep telling him to show Dallas how to use it. Right now Cedric is rolling around in my work shirt from yesterday. I also just tried to give Dallas a bite of food (mr you know who eats most of what's out...). Picture this: they each have their own set of double bowls in an iron feeder holder (raises the bowls up). One bowl of water and one for food. The food bowl is on the left. Dallas was eating and Cedric was trying to approach on the right. Instead of trying to nuzzle Dallas out of the way, Cedric was trying to get to the food by reaching over the water bowl. In doing so, he was holding his bent left front paw over the water dish, effectively putting his paw IN the water bowl....

My 3 eat the same food out of 3 separate dishes, yet they will go to each others dish. Have no idea why they think someone else's is better, it came out of the same can! :lol: They play musical plates here.
Mel, it is so very weird that you said that about a monitoring collar, I was thinking the exact same thing today!
Some scientist needs to develop that. We would know what they were doing when we aren't testing. It's a brilliant idea, wish someone would do it!
Once that is accomplished, it's only a matter of time before there's an app for it and your phone would alert you to emergency.

I was telling Sheila about the watches people wear that alerts a person that they are low or high. It reads the sweat.
We just couldn't figure out how to get it on a cat- do we shave the neck? Do cats sweat? Could it be a tummy band worn on curve days? How about a patch? Would that work?
Then we need to figure out how to get the cat to wear it all day long... or at least all cycle long...

I dunno about a tummy band......if you tie a small scarf around a cat's middle, they will usually fall over. :lol: Apparently, they think they can't walk, or most of them anyway.
I don't think cats sweat, dogs don't, isn't that why they pant?
Seriously, there has got to be a way, like with sweat, to monitor. Wish I knew an inventor.
You know, someone will come up with this in a couple years and we'll all be ohmygod_smile ohmygod_smile ohmygod_smile thinking WE should have patented the idea. :lol:

Unfortunately cats like dogs don't sweat..they pant when hot...now on a diabetic horse that would work, They sweat...lol
But even if we could figure out how to get one to work on a cat the million dollar question would be how to get the cat to wear it. I can't get any of mine to leave a collar on, and if they will someone else removes it for them...lol

They are also doing a tattoo now- How would DH like that Mel?
It changes color depending on BG levels.

You did know we are both tattooed didn't you? I actually have more than DH mine are just easier to hide...lol
But you know that would work great if we could figure out how to get a reading over time..
And it is another cat that removes collars..

Yes, I think I remember that.

articles for the nano ink tattoo.
The problem might be keeping the area shaved enough for the device to read the tattoo... And taking the cat in every 6 months to re-tattoo...
