Just wondering if someone can advise when the best time to test BG levels is?

I need to start being more consistant with when I test Eppie's blood, as I think I've been a bit erractic, so not really building up a true picture of what's happening.

She has been in remission for about 4 yrs & the only reason I have started testing again is due to a steroid injection she had about a week ago. So, I need to know the best time to test when a cat isn't on insulin.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi there, Eppie's person,

I think it's a great idea to be vigilant now after the steroids. I would spread out my tests. One test a day, or every other day. At various times. Let's face it....if Eppie is going to become insulin dependent again the numbers will reveal themselves whenever you test right?
Also be away of p/u p/d and general weight and behavior (lazy, weak)
I'm sure you will be right on top of it if she starts showing pancreatic problems.
