Lovey had a lower preshot than usual. I reduced the dose by .25 and shot. I just fed her a few tsp. HC since I need to go to work. I will call in and say I will be a little late and leave some food in the feeder. I fed almost a whole small can of HC.

Do you think if I leave Lc in the feeder to open every hour? I will be Ok to leave after another test where the number is raised?

Looks like Lovey was surfing. When did you feed that much HC? I'd expect her numbers to shoot up at some point.

Sending safe surfing vines. I hope you get a good number when you get home.

Nice cycle but why does it happen when we can't let it run its course and have to intervene? I hope you made it to work okay.

Thanks Tricia and Elise for the responding. I feed her a few tsps at a time for about 2 hours. I ended up giving syrup too since I had to leave for work. If I was home, I would not have done so much, but I was afraid. Her preshot is now 202 but she will probably bounce this cycle.

I hate it when they give us numbers like that when we need to go to work. I'm glad Lovey surfed safely today. Hopefully she'll come back down soon.

Catherine noticed that when I travel I reduce Gabby's dose because Gabby doesn't allow anyone but me to test. In other words, my petsitter shoots blind.

I don't necessarily reduce by a standard amount. Gabby's dose before I left was a skinny 1.0u. I suggested that my petsitter shoot between 0.5 and 0.75u. Given that Lovey's dose is 1.25u, a lot depends on whether Loevy is prone to diving. Gabby likes to dive so I consider that fact since where won't be any testing going on (and even if my petsitter could get a pre-shot test, she won't be around to get other tests). If it were me, I'd probably reduce Lovey to 0.75u. But, you know your cat.
 
Thanks Sienne for the help. I don't want her to get used to high numbers but staying safe is most important. If lovey gets a lower preshot, she has a tendency to go too low without a food spike and an early onset. Thanks again.
 
What a great day for Lovey! Good thing you were able to be there to catch those early numbers. Cats get back on track fast enough if you have to reduce for a vacation. As you said, safety comes first.
