DC seems to be feeling a little better today.
I'm still having a really hard time getting him to eat any wet food.
I don't know if it's because I've been syringe feeding him or he's associating it with the pukus.
He ate about 1/8 cup of EVO kibble this morning after his shot. His numbers aren't too bad considering.
I'd really like to increase his insulin to bring the numbers down a bit, but I don't think it's a good idea until he is eating more.
I did syringe feed him about 5cc this morning, but then he ran and hid.
He had his Cerenia injection @ AM +4.5
He finally ate about 1/8 can of LC around AM +10. Although I can't get him to eat anymore.
I gave him 40ml of SubQ fluids this morning and 50ml a little while ago. He is also drinking water on his own.
He doesn't seem to be dehydrated. He's using the litterbox.
He actually laid in the sun for a while today and even played a bit.

Get well soon DC!
It's good that he starts to eat on his own, he must be feeling a bit better.

Yay for play - sending many scritches for him and appetite/anti nausea vines.

These are not DC numbers though and you may want to start testing for ketones if not doing so already.

I'd rather he was eating his wet food instead of the EVO kibble, but I guess that's better than him not eating.
At least it's only 8% carbs, but I don't like him eating the dry.

He's negative for ketones. I do check for them regularly.
