party_cat Happy Birthday Loki.
Hard to tell what is happening at night. I know you have experimented with food overnight, but I wonder if a snack at +6 might help a lower number if that is what is causing the higher amps. (can't remember if you have a automatic feeder). The other thing to try might be a tiny bit less insulin at night. (you are giving the same dose for a low 200 as a high 300). I know we wanted to try a consistent dose, but we are getting big fluctuations.
Maybe this weekend, plan a night curve?

Happy Birthday, Loki! Another April baby! I think Sue is right, when Simba was first on insulin we did a higher day / lower night shot. Not really sure why the vet opted for that, unless it's due to the night activity driving the BG down a little more than the all day sleep fest.

Gave his 1.6 unit. Going for a conference with his vet on Thurs in the morning. The vet called me a few weeks ago and wanted to discuss changing Loki diabetes protocol but wanted to do more research first. Will see what he is thinking and let you guys know.
