Good Morning!

Kitty is still liking food! Until her crash, I never left food out-- her feeding regiment was very strict and she only got food with insulin. But, that wasn't so bad-- she got a can every 8 hours. But, since she has been sick and appears to be losing weight daily, I leave food out all of the time. I know this is skewing her BGs, but at this point.....I don't care! But, she woke me up twice last night licking the bowl and wanting more! So, for now...she is eating! I skipped the appetite stimulant last night on advice from the vet, but I will give it to her at the first sign of inappetance. It really is day to day with her, yesterday I thought she had a good day. Today, even though she is eating, she doesn't seem as alert and active. Hopefully, as the day progresses she will feel better. Her BGs are much better the last few days, this morning's amps was 301-- I shot 2.5. I am happy that her BGs are lowering-- maybe, a sign that she is not in as much pain. She has gone downhill so much in the last 6 weeks, it is hard to believe. Hopefully, if the Ptitis resolves, she will gain some weight and feel better. That is my hope.

Chewy is ruling the house! He checked in this morning at 67-- only the second reading in the 60s that I have recorded. At the present time, Kitty and He are on the sunporch.....wondering where the Sun Is!

My to do list today includes looking for the Aloe Vera juice. I hope I can find it!

Wishing Everyone A Great Day from Diabetic Alley......
 
Glad to hear Kitty is hungry and holding pretty steady for you. And that Chewy is a love.
Continued good vibes comin' to the Alley from here in the heart of the Dutch Ghetto :lol:
 
Good morning my extra sweet family!

KittyGirl, oh you make me so happy this morning! Right now, it's OK if you eat Mama out of 'house and home'....you'll still make us smile.

Sir Chewy - just a beautiful boy you are! I'm so glad you finally came home....

Sweet Sally, big neck hug for you too....Harley got an extra treat in your honor today! He said THANKS but can he have more...???

Big hug Kim - have a wonderful day! Hope you find the juice...
 
Good Evening!

Kitty has had a pretty good day! She still is being a Pig! She is not due her PM test and shoot for another hour and a half, and she just insisted on eating more food after her 8:30 meds. I had NO luck finding the Aloe Vera juice, but I will find it this week. I am very interested in trying it and seeing what, if any effect it will have on her. I intended on going to Raleigh to get the juice today, but decided to stay home and catch up on my chores instead...uggggg! Kitty is very weak in her legs, but overall her attitue seems better. The birds have found "her" feeder and she has layed on the porch and stalked them all day.....while I worked in the yard-- somethings never change!

Hopefully her PMPS will not be too high after the half of can of food she just inhaled! :-D

Wishing Everyone a Great Evening......
 
Hi,
I'm pretty interested in your Aloe Vera conversation. Did you find any? What brand name? I want to try it too but don't see anything about how or when to give it. I am seeing that you start off at 1cc and work up. Highest I saw was 3 cc. Have you seen anything different?

Thanks for information on this. I'm interested in the results too.
