Cat gagging, white foam - should I give insulin

[Helgaursula]

Toby, my sugar baby, had his insulin this morning (3 U), but then sat outside and would not come in. At lunch-time he ate some kitten food, rejected everything else. He was able to pass urine and feces. Tonight about five I noticed noisy breathing and gagging. He refused any food, but was drinking (he had no Ketones). Should I give him insulin? I contacted Vet today, but was told to keep eye on him. He deteriorated after, when I could no longer reach Vet today.

Have you read the 2 dosing methods for lantus/glargine
https://felinediabetes.com/FDMB/forums/lantus-levemir-biosimilars.9/

Do you have the syringes to draw the insulin out of the pen
We adjust does by 0.25 units , not whole units
You can buy them online here:

Your spreadsheet only goes up to 3-24. Have you been testing after that?
Can you please update your spreadsheet

Looks like she has been increasing by whole units and hasn't picked a dosing method
