I changed Zhoom's food about a week ago to a lower carb food (Royal canin select protein rabbit 13% - Nature's Variety original rabbit 6%) and was hoping to see better numbers this curve, but it is not the case. He does not seem to be feeling that great today either. Sleeping most of the day. I did a urine test for ketones and it was negative, thank goodness. It seems that I should increase his dose to 1.5 U tonight. Does that seem right? His numbers tend to seem so flatline to me, sometimes with the lowest number being at the AM preshot. It makes little sense to me.
He is 2 weeks in on his month trial course of metronidazole for IBD. He often is hunched with elbows up, like he is uncomfortable. His stools are darker than normal and he seems to struggle a bit in the litter pan but the volume and frequency of stools seems fine. I can't remember exactly when the hunched position started. I think it had begun before the food change, but seems to be happening more often. I am worried that the new food might not be good for him (it does have pork in it, which his old food only had rabbit) or that it could be something with the metronidazole. Not sure what to do.
