Good morning!

In 2 days I have to go back to work . I work in 12 h shifts that means I can't test between AMPS and PMPS some days ( 12 cicles a month) and I am a little scared. I need a plan to keep Pufi safe but I also want for him better numbers.
I have a automatic feeder which serves 3 programed meals plus one in the open box.
Any thoughts?

Have you read this stickie? http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/...ion-possible-with-a-full-time-job-yes.129378/

Hope there's some helpful information in there for you.

I have a PetSafe auto feeder for when I'm gone for a long time - it has 5 slots. They're available on Amazon. You may need to get another feeder for another part of the day.

You'll want to test at night (unfortunately) so you can determine when Pufi's nadir is - as you will want to be sure she has food available during those times.

I will test at night before my vacantion is over . I've red the information in the link you mentioned ( so kind, thank you) but my situation is different. I test around 7 am/ pm than feed and shoot around 7:30 . I have to be at work at 8 , and then when I come back I test feed shot no later than 8 . So, I cannot stall, I cannot take +2,+3 readings if a preshot level is low therefore I have to think of something to make things work and keep him safe. I was thinking to live him LC 4 meals if the PS is 200 or higher and MC if the PS is 150-200.
I have Trixie 6 which has 5 slots also but only 3 meals can be programed plus one in the open slot . I can add another one . Amazon is not on option the delivery is in 3-4 weeks.
First I have to shoot full dose under 200 PS when I am home to monitor and see what is going to hapend
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
