Yesterday

Oooh he's getting grumpy with me today. Tried to get up and walk away just as I poked the needle into his skin. I had to fuss a bit, which is unusual. I think he's tired of it all, but I told him he's not done yet. He's got a bit of time before he's ready to even try but if he keeps giving us these pretty numbers he'll be there soon. Not sure he believed me, but I'm not sure if the meow he let out was "Sure mom, whatever you say" or "Whateverrrrrrrrrrrrr" ;-)

I got up right at +10 and took the food away as I got the testing basket. Tugger was not a happy boy then either. He slapped my hand when I reached for the food bowl in front of him! I think most nights he sleeps till I get up and then he races for the foods and tries to gobble it before I take it away but this is the first time he's whapped at me for taking it!! He's been pouting, but he's not stalking me. Everyone followed me around for about 15 minutes, then I think they realized I was not giving up the food so they all went to nap (except Echo who has been getting into stuff and BB whose story follows) I am hopeful they have finally figured out the two-hours-of-no-food thing.

So BB's adventure this morning. Miss Thing was on the dining room table, yelling at her Boy (part of her morning routine, she yells at him before he leaves for school and she sticks her head in his mouth to check his teefs) so he went to her and gave her some skritches and let her check his teefs then he went on about his business. Next thing I know, all heck has broken out behind me. BB'd stuck her head into a candle holder stand thingy on the table and got caught. Then she freaked of course. Off the table she goes,(the standthingy is metal) banging her large awkward necklace on the table, the china cabinet, the chair, finally getting to the floor and trying to hide under another chair behind some paint cans. I'm trying to get to her so I can un-stuck her but she darts out and bangs into a wall and a paint can before dislodging her necklace and then racing behind the couch. Where she is still hiding. It was about a minute and a half of commotion, I'm surprised hubby didn't wake up. There was a lot of noise. Tugger sat on the couch watching the whole thing just as calm as could be. Everyone else flipped out, but Tugger just chilled on the couch and watched. I think I heard a giggle or two from that direction :lol:
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77

I went outside with Boomer and when I came back in Tugger was in my desk chair. I think he was reading or posting while I was outside. I am cuurently typing this with one butt cheek perched on about 1/4 inch of chair and he's steadily pushing with his feet to try to get me OFF.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77

He was emailing Shadow....tell him it went through ok even though he was interrupted. Quite a commotion at your place this morning, eh? That'll wake ya up! Wow!! :lol:
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77

:lol: :lol: :lol: Sounds like you had a fun morning! And I'm with D--Max started giving me a hard time with the tests when we got to the micro doses. Several mornings he wouldn't settle for the test, and he's trying to buck it now too. He keeps giving me dirty looks like "don't you know this isn't necessary anymore?!?" :mrgreen:
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77

What an exciting start your your morning. They say that laughter is the best medicine. Do you suppose Tugger arranged the show ?
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77 +2 89

Good morning, Marvie and Tugger!! Looking Grrrrreat this morning! +2 is just a food spike.. No worries there, lil man will be right back on track I bet by +4 or 6!! Have a wonderful Wednesday!! ;-)
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77 +2 89 +4 97

And we're rising still... Maybe I furshot when he walked away? I'm pretty sure I shot stuff into him but he was being a brat so who knows?

I'm heading out for the rest of the day, not sure when I'll be back but should be before shot time. Hubby and son will test but probably won't update ss.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77 +2 89 +4 97

No, I don't think it was a fur shot doing this. I think Tugger wants off the juice.
There's a part (the heart part) of me that thinks, he is in and has been, in remission and any juice is going to push numbers up and down.
But the sensible part of me says "stay the course."
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger AMPS 77 +2 89 +4 97

Hey guys, FINALLY getting on the internet today! Tugger stop being sooo grumpy with mama!!!!! Scrabble has been pretty mad about his tests too must be that they know they are getting close!!! I have been trying not to poke as much lately! Hope you have a great night, I am off to tbp soon!!!
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

Do not freak out. 148 is food. Hubby was in charge tonight and I thought I'd explained about the numbers on the can tops... he says I never did. He fed counter food on the floor, Tugger apparently mowed an entire can of gravy food.... no idea if the shot dose was accurate either. I'm pretty confident that he got that right though. I think.

So, I guess we'll see how well Tugger can handle this and what it'll do =)
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

Kinda po'd because he could have called if he didn't understand what the writing on top of the cans meant. He didn't think vacuuming would bump numbers so why should I think he'd pay the slightest bit of attention to the fact that EVERY single can of cat food in this house has numbers or a B on it and that maybe, JUST MAYBE there might be some reason for that?

But... this tells me I have to get out the petsitter instructions for him because he doesn't hear what I say when I speak words and form sentences verbally. Maybe text will do the trick.

OR a cast iron skillet.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

I wish I could remember who it was who's kitty was in the middle of an OTJ trial and ate a cupcake. It didn't disrupt the trial -- other than the 'fowl' language that I'm sure ensued -- but that kitty is OTJ. Tugger will be fine.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

Marvie, maybe a text message would do the trick. He is tech savvy. :-D
I thought I was the only one with numbers on the cans. Those food spike numbers can be alarming at first sight.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

Well, let's see...will be waiting. You getting a +2, +3? tap, tap, tap





PS: read PM.

Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

well, I'm relieved to read your condo because I opened the spreadsheet first, and "WHAT???? 148????" Whew, glad to know it's just because of food. Let's see what Tugger can do.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

awwwwww....... be thankful you have a husband, willing to feed food to Tugger. Things happen.. they just do.... no worries.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148

He did apologize. I'm just having a hard time accepting it because COME ON, the diabetes talk has been 95% of every conversation we have. Everything revolves around Tugger right now. I've been telling him this via emails while he was still over in Japan, I've given him access to the ss but he hasn't cared enough to look at it once, and he's been watching me live my life around Tugger's schedule since he's been home. It's NOT like he DIDN'T KNOW. I didn't marry an idiot who can't think to himself "Hmm what are these numbers? She didn't explain them to me, maybe I should pick up the phone she bought me YESTERDAY and call her up and find out before I do something wrong?"

I wasn't in an important meeting, I was hanging out with a new friend who was hit by a car two weeks ago and is housebound and stuck in a bed with no one for company but her kids and hubby and furkids. I could have taken a call.

I updated ss with the food note so if someone else opens it they can stop the heart attack. Mine just kind of went *thud....* when I saw that number. I was prepared for it, I already knew he'd fed gravy food but it still made my heart stop.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148 +3 138

Tugger knows how to get down off gravy. He's well trained in that after all his crazy lows. He'll probably be in the 40's in no time. :mrgreen: is his middle name.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148 +3 138

He couldn't be bothered to get off the bed at +2 to come for a treat, but at +3 he came to the kitchen... slowly and was the last to get there, but he came.
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148 +3 138 +4 95

Unless someone thinks there's reason to worry about a weird low... I'm off to bed. :mrgreen:
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148 +3 138 +4 95

:mrgreen: attaboy!!


better now?? :smile:

THAT's the real story here. Now you know what his pancreas CAN do and in such a short time! Before he was only getting gravy on super low numbers. I have no IDEA really with Hank. He's rather flat. I don't think I ever caught the lowest lows..or he just doesn't have them. And so far OTJ, I haven't CAUGHT him above 100..but that doesn't mean he hasn't been. But, we run higher overall than alot of the low dose or OTJ kitties. He is mostly in the high 80's low 90's. I don't see the 50's, 60's like the others.
Max threw randi a 48 on trial! And did you see tonight, Baby went to 42!


So Yay...Tugger passed the test. You now have new information about what he can do. Has to make you feel good and proud!
And all that on barely a teensie drop!

Way To GO!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148 +3 138 +4 95

I do feel loads better =) Hubby says "you're welcome?" very hesitantly. Then he got distracted because Echo poo'd and it's pretty nasty stinky :lol: Oooh yeah. It is. Hubby ran for his man-cave and closed the door :lol:

I think I'm going to go take a hot bath and relax a bit. I'll test and post once more before I go to bed!
 
Re: 4/21 Tugger PMPS 89 +2 148 +3 138 +4 95 +5 80

Got an 80... usually I'd feel safe sleeping right now, but not sure what to expect tonight. Any thoughts?
