Albert needs a furever home; check out his blog at http://fdmb-cin.blogspot.com/2012/04/albert.html
Last night I gave him .5u of ProZinc with a low 300s PS. He had a lovely tuna dinner which he happily devoured, but other than that I haven't been able to get him to eat much canned food. His BG today has been around 130. He didn't eat his b-fast, but I got him to eat some dinner by mixing tuna juice in with some FF. I ordered some FortiFlora from Amazon which I've read on here is helpful in transitioning cats to eat wet food. His numbers are great when he doesn't have anything carb-y. I still would like to see his numbers a little lower, though. He's settling in well and has met civvies Spirit and Bingley (they barged in after me on different occasions) and Spirit seems to like him. Little Bingley is jealous of him though. Albert really isn't ready for introductions yet so I booted them out.
Albert is able to get up and down from the bed, but he prefers to sleep on a pet bed on the floor. He seems to be walking a little better each day. He is such a sweetheart. He puts up with all my poking and he purrs for me afterwards! And when he settles down in his pet bed he likes to knead.
I'm not sure if he was an only cat before, but I think he would do alright with other cats. He's very, very mellow, and if Spirit thinks he's ok, then that's a wonderful sign!
I'll post more updates soon.
