8/5 Papaya AMPS=480 +6=159

Yesterday

Last night's preshot was already green, and although Papaya didn't dip any lower than 67 (as far as I know) she seemed to be headed up pretty quickly after that reading at +4. It seems Mr. Liver was not pleased with all the green and has given us a bounce again. These quick bounces don't worry me too much because Papaya is still feeling fine - purry and wanting tummy rubs. Plus they seem to clear pretty quickly. Papaya was making me nervous staring at me yesterday evening - the "I'm going to eat you" stare, but it turned out she was just very interested in the loose leaf mint tea I was drinking. I fished out a couple leaves for her which she ate with gusto - maybe she was concerned about her wet-catfood-breath!

Akilo, I'm SO glad you stopped by Papaya's condo yesterday! I was really worried about Dumdum since I knew he was having trouble with ketones and then his spreadsheet just stopped. Phew, glad he is OK and that the change in insulin is working for him. With Papaya feeding her food with a little bit higher carbs (9%) is really helping to level out the cycles. Every cat is different!

I love Papaya! :lol:
So cute she was interested in your mint tea and kept staring at you.
For some reason, this hit my funny spot. :lol:
It's interesting she likes to eat mint leafs :shock:
I thought cats hated minty smell!

Thanks for the visits, Devon, Mariko and Kat! Papaya is a bit bouncy again lately but not nearly as bad as she was, and keeps earning reductions so we're making progress!

Mariko - Papaya looooooves mint and basil, but is not so excited about catnip. Weird. Also my mom spilled some poultry seasoning on the floor once and I thought Papaya was going to turn herself inside out, rolling in it. Not sure what the attraction was there - sage? - but she does love her herbs :lol:
