Hi there! Boy have I been busy but wanted to say hi! Been working like crazy (my weekday job) and I am trying to start my own business so I've been busy busy busy. Abigail is doing well. She is my little stinker. Last night she was down in the 90s- so no shot. Then after a few hours back in the 200s. This morning it was 286. I couldn't get away to test her but I will when I get home today. She was being a pill this morning and wouldn't eat her food so I isolated her in my bedroom. One of my civies is a fatty and will eat EVERYTHING in sight! For whatever reason Abigail s food is like the best thing ever to her. SO I have to keep Abigail's food away from Miss Kitty because I don't need her gaining any more weight. I actually think she has lost weight due to the only wet food diet she is on now. Her collar is a little looser!

Wow I guess you are busy!!!! Good luck on the new business!!! Whatcha starting?
Oh do I know about those piggy civies...lol I have two that have to be crated at meal-time because they think they are on a seafood diet, if they see food they eat it. :lol: And I think it is an unwritten rule of cats that food always tastes better off someone else's plate. :roll:
If Mz Abigail keeps giving you an unshootable number at preshot you may want to reduce her dose a little bit, maybe knock it down by .25u. When you get a moment to breathe and have a day off if you could run a curve on her it would help alot to figure out if she truly needs a dose reduction or if you just need to invest in a pair of BOS and start shooting low to stay low.

I used to have that problem with one of mine - fortunately he couldn't jump as well as the others, so I used to put their food up high where he couldn't get to it....and I figured if he did lose enough weight to be able to get up that high - it was good exercise for him
. He wasn't named Pumpkin just because of his color.I am making jewlery, French memo boards, light switch plates, home accessories lol . So I've been doing a lot of festivals and working to get enough to sell at the festivals. I also refinish furniture too. My mom and I hope to have our own store one day. But I am going to be home this weekend so I will try a curve throughout the day.
On another note I have now a confirmed second diabetic kitty. Azrael is on a super low dose because his sugar is not scary high. In fact it came down a lot after he switched food. I have a new vet at the facility where I go and she is really impressed. I free caught his urine so they could test it. I'm doing home blood glucose tests. She said people really don't do that. I told her once you learn a little it's amazing what you can do. I am trying to do it mainly to save money. It was $50 just for them to get the urinalysis. I didn't even have to take him in!

Of course! You can PM me any time. I do a little more "artistic" type thing. For example. One of the tables I scored was this sad looking table but with a cool kidney bean shape. It is laminate so you can't strip it and restain. So what I am doing is decoupaging wine labels on the entire thing. Then making the top out of used wine cork. Then on the bottom shelf I found a great wine rack which I am attaching. So there will be a shelf holding the wine and then I am attaching a wine glass holder to the underside of the top shelf. It will look awesome.
