Found a vet that supports home testing!!

I just had to share my excitement, because I was really struggling to find one. So in two weeks when I can afford another vet appt we will be at a clinic that specializes in cats and can't wait to meet Boots Which is awesome, because his numbers have been completely crazy the last few days and I don't really know why. AND I'll be able to get him off the humulin and onto lantus.

Oh Jade! That's wonderful news!

It can be so hard to find a vet that follows the AAHA Guidelines. Maybe give her a copy to keep?
AAHA Diabetes Management Guidelines for Dogs and Cats

So she can help the next person that comes to the practice and point that next, scared diabetic pet owner to these guidelines.

You know part of it - the wrong kind of insulin for your cat!

I will definitely print a copy of that Deb, thank you. And I know part of it is the insulin, but the numbers have been a lot more weird in the past few days. And not coming down as far. I have the entire weekend off (I'm sure that will never happen again lol) so Im going to work on his spreadsheet with Gabe's help and get it all updated.

So whens the vet visit? When can you get started on the new insulin??

Sorry Wendy, I didn't see you had responded! I can't make the appt til I know what my days off next week are, but as soon as I make it I will let you know! I should be in by the middle of the week.
