I picked up a second foster cat, Oliver, with diabetes today. He was diagnosed a few weeks ago and put on a starting dose of 3 units of Prozinc 2x/day. Dose was determined by an in office curve. At the same time he started insulin the owner removed his dry food and started feeding him the classic seafood varieties of Fancy Feast. He was feeding him 1 can with his morning dose and 1 with his evening dose.
I will start home testing tonight. His dose makes me nervous but I'm inclined to keep it the same tonight for the sake of consistency. I also prefer feeding 4 times a day.
Thoughts on what you'd do are welcome. Oliver had a 6 hour car ride today and is now in a new home so it's been a stressful day for him. Luckily, he is seeking attention. We'll see what happens after I start poking his ear
(Please note, I'm maintaining 1 spreadsheet with a worksheet per foster cat.)
