Meter to check ketones

[bgenick]

Hi, my cat has had ketoacidosis twice. Much investigation for underlying cause but not found so far. I would like a meter that can test for ketones. Anyone have one they like? Am looking at Precision Xtra but test strips are $4 each.

Another is the Nova Max Plus.
Also see my signature link Secondary Monitoring Tools for some other assessments which may be helpful - dehydration checks, water and food intake, thirst and hunger levels.
Lack of food + infection + insufficient insulin -> fat breakdown for energy -> ketones -> DKA
