Still many reds/blacks/big swings. I would switch to depot insulin if you can, if you need to order another ProZinc vial it's not the end of the world though

Ok, would I need to check her more often with the depot insulin?
 
You would need at least one nighttime test each night, but no it'll be mostly the same as you're doing now. That obviously can change if she gets lower numbers, same as you've seen so far

Lantus or it's biosimilar semglee. Levemir is also ok but usually a bit pricier and used for higher dose cats (but you can certainly use it at lower doses)
 
If your vet gives the ok for lantus, it's expensive in the US

A lot if members use semglee
Here is a coupon below
Just call any pharmacy to see if they have the 5 pens, they will last you a year or more
Type in where you live and you will see where you can buy it
Lantus is expensive if you live in the US

Semglee, it is a generic Lantus, and was approved by the FDA last June. The cost is compatible with Lantus from Canada.
Some pharmacy's don't carry it so you would have to call

Some have their vet write the prescription as insulin glargine

You would need to get U-100 syringes for these with half unit markings if you switch
