Hi! I can’t figure out how to change my name, I didn’t see the suggestion to have kitty’s name with mine until after registration. [Edit: Got this fixed! Thanks Diane.]
My diabetic boy is Loki, an 11 year old Maine Coon cross. He’s done a total 180 since starting insulin 8 months ago!
I test his BSL at home, and he just recently got bumped up to 3 IU twice a day.
I have his diet controlled. He tends to eat smaller amounts more frequently so I portion his dry food (Crave) daily to ensure I don’t overfeed. He also gets wet (Weruva canned) in the evening.
He’s bulking back up nicely. He spent a long time overweight, then got pretty skinny and stayed there until diagnosed. Now I’m wondering what healthy weight might be for him. I don’t think we’ve reached it yet but we’re close. I’ll check in with his vet on Monday but I look forward to hearing what y’all say!
I wish I’d known about this forum months ago. What a wonderful thing.

click on your username in the upper right (next to Inbox and Alerts), then go to Personal Details. At the very bottom on the left, under Advanced Options, is the option to Change Username. It only lets you do this once every 90 days. Hope this helps! :)
