This morning the kitties had finished what little bit of dry food I left from the day before. Today is going to be our first day to attempt 100% wet food!
Woke up at 8am (Happy New Year) and opened two cans of wet food. All but one decided to dig in. By 1pm the picky one had decided he was hungry enough to eat some and I realized that the plates were empty. I may need to open 3 cans in the mornings if by 1pm it was all gone. I have a feeling this is going to be trial and error for a while. I decided to open one more can at 1pm and the picky one must have been hungry because he went right for it (good news!!!).
Let's see how long that can lasts.
Yesterday Webber's random blood glucose of 250. That is VERY good and the lowest I have gotten since I started testing at home. Maybe by eliminating the dry completely he will continue to drop? We can only hope. I determined that the prescription dry food that the vet sold me is 18% carbohydrates. They recommend that you give <10% carbohydrates to diabetic cats. So.....eliminating that dry food may make a difference. Time will only tell.....
There are many cans of cat food out there with <10% carbs.
Present: This blog will be a combination of feline health posts, pictures etc. The Past: This is my blog of Webber's journey with feline diabetes. We hope that this journey for my sugarbaby will not last long. We hope that with diet and a short bout of strict insulin injections he will conquer it all!
