help with bg numbers and dosage

[dd & savannah]

Hi,
Since we've been home from the incident this weekend (wobbly legs, small seizures- not diabetes related) Savannah's numbers have been high.
I've been having a hard time giving her the right amount even the week leading up to her seizures. I have been giving her between .25 and .5 units depending on her numbers. 250 and above she received .5; 200-249 .25; and anything below 200 was nothing. As you can imagine it's pretty difficult to see .25 on the syringe so I am always second-guessing my self when I give her .25. By the way she is on Humulin N. In the past, she gets a very slow curve from N and this is why we have not changed.
Yesterday I did a curve and this is what I got...
7/5
ps am 339 .25 units, no insulin was given the previous night as directed by the vet
+2 362
+4 302
+6 272
+8 323
+10.5 330 I gave her between .25 and .5 here b/c I didn't want it to get any higher.
-because I was awake I checked her 7 hours later (around 1:30 am) and she was 229

7/6
ps am 414 .25- .5 units
+9.5 she is already at 410 so I decided to give her the shot at .5 and will read her sugar for this evening.

Since this summer, I can't tell if she is one of those cats that needs her insulin every 10 hours but in a smaller amount. Or, maybe she needs one shot per day b/c there were several times earlier last week when I gave her .5 in the am and she was only 189 by her pm shot.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Dianne and Savannah

Maybe if you could put the type of insulin in your subject line, you can catch the eye of others using N.
