Versus?

Start Low, Go Slow (both are explained in the Sticky at the top of the forum)

SLGS only increases the dose every 7 days at the earliest

There's a lot more to them but with Alice having the recent DKA, the last thing we'd want to do is leave her on a dose that's not helping her any longer than absolutely necessary for safety

Oh the edit helped on your comment!

Get some sleep!!!

If you happen to wake up later on, grab a test, but I think you can safely call it a night.

You might want to add "FS?" to the U column for tonight for "possible furshot"

Really? Just... chill? What? Haha. Had a ketone test earlier today that looked trace at worst, but is there any more concern since BGL is high tonight?

 

[Chris & China (GA)]

If you happen to get a chance to get another ketone test, great.....but right now, I think it's more important for you to get a good night's sleep

@Chris & China (GA) thank you for taking your time with me today. My family member would like me more if I got some rest I think, too, so I'll let go a little tonight with Miss Meowliss. Her belly is so full right now anyway. Goodnight!

Sleep well! You deserve it

+5 is 477..... so she's hanging out there. 2% FF and rehydrated freeze dried chicken with bonito. Yummmm.

Fecal score is not as great the past few days. But it's been worse.

@CassandraCatface - Wellness in the 3oz cans is expensive. However, if you buy the really big cans (12oz??), it's less expensive per ounce than Fancy Feast. They have a chicken flavor. If you go back to Dr. Lisa's food chart, she has all of the Wellness flavors listed. Her list also contains calorie info if you want to do some comparisons.

Just a note/question on the Wellness in case anyone knows....they did change their formulations, and the phosphorus levels are way up now as opposed to the great numbers on Dr. Lisa's chart, so no longer good for crf (kidney failure) kitties, but I don't know if the formulation altered the carb content to any extent? Flavorwise Willow did love it Side note: @CassandraCatface , you're doing an awesome job!

Thanks that's helpful! Dr. Lisa's list was one of the first resources I found online and it changed everything.
