My kitty got a new sensor put on June 2. Since that time her numbers have been high and I increased her dose slightly and it still read like 300-350. I finally realized it is broken and for about a week I have been shooting without really knowing how she's doing or low. I have made an appointment tomorrow morning to have it changed. I called Abbott and they told defective sensor. If you ever call them for guidance FYI they are not permitted to give guidance for use with pets or animals.
This has been scary. I should have trusted myself.
 
Have you been keeping a spreadsheet? It would be a good idea. You could get help here with dosing and more. Sorry about your Libre.
 
I've heard Abbott is pretty good at sending out replacement sensors when they just randomly fail or do weird things. Just don't mention it's on a pet (apparently they won't ask either).

Even a working Libre throws out weird numbers sometimes, so it definitely pays to be prepared to test with a regular meter if you see anything out of place.
