My 11 1/2 year old male was diagnosed last week with Diabetes. I need some advise on food and feeding schedules. I have been given him 1 U of PZI once a day. The results of 12 hour testing is below. I am using the AlphaTrak meter. I give him ~1/2 can of Science Diet M/D at 5am after testing, he eats about a 1/4 and I leave the rest. Sometimes it is gone by the time I get home and sometimes not. He then gets the rest of the can at ~5pm. He will eat about 1/8 at 5pm and the rest throughout the night. I have been awakened the last couple of nights with him playing and eating about 2am. Should I remove the food early? I think it might be playing havoc with his #'s. Last night he ate and then woke us about 2am with a vomit. I am not sure if this was due to the FF Classic Beef or if something else was going on. I cleaned it up and he purred with us in the bed. He then ate some more and vomited again. Because I figured he was hungry I left him a small amount of dry w/d. He ate some of this and didn't vomit again. I tested his BG at 4:45am as usual and it was 507. Was this stress or the dry W/d?
