Can heat make them higher? It's a heatwave here in the UK and we are frying.

My Dad was looking after him yesterday and we are not sure if he did a fur shot or not for that high reading - very odd!!
The lack of daytime tests depresses me but I haven't been working from home for weeks now

Hope everyone else in LL is doing OK

Hi Jax - I just wanted to stop by and say hi. I read Harry's profile and am glad you were able to get him on Lantus! I have had my own difficulty with vets, so I understand the frustration. I don't have any advice for his high numbers but I'm sure someone will be along to help you out. I'm in Florida so I can also relate to your "frying"! I have my air cranked down to 70 degrees and I hibernate during the summer!

I guess any stress can increase blood glucose level but usually when it's hot here my cats just sleep and relax so if anything it would be lower!

I am thinking its a bounce, wonder if he dropped low yesterday. And he is coming back down again now too..

Thanks Wendy, Yup, I was thinking bounce although when Dad rang with his AMPS reading I did tell him to shoot but give lots of food - not sure if Mr Harrycat stuffed his chops a bit too much!! lol Poor parents tried every 2 hrs to get him to come in for a test but he was having none of it!! He only likes to come home for mummy.. @-)

Hi there Lkldcatlady I wish we had aircon!!! :lol: No point here though when we so rarely get anywhere near 30 deg heat. That's why we go stupid when it does get hot!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Harry likes sleeping in the tree peony that I have on the front drive in a raised bed. Yesterday he also slept for a while in mothers' catmint bush. :mrgreen:
