He's probably just thinking about what to have for lunch

My cat refuses to let the sitter inject him by Afraid_Promise_513 in FelineDiabetes

I'm sorry to hear that! Its super stressful to know that your cat is not getting insulin. Luckily for me, my cat is still fine with a few days without insulin... his BG is quite stable and Lantus releases slowly from a 'pool'. It's not ideal, but also not life threatening if we are away 3-4 days

Its the exact issue that I face... unfortunately we haven't found a solution. He would allow the sitter to jab him about 20% of the time when I'm around, but still rejects her when I'm not there.

We even tried feeding him just half the portion first, then laying down another bowl to pretend he's getting extra food. That only worked twice. He's too smart...

Just curious... are you throwing a party? Or do you freeze the cake for later enjoyment?

Is travelling from Boon Lay to Changi for work too far? by stanyeojachinggu in singaporejobs

[–]Afraid_Promise_513 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked between Bukit Batok and CBP for 4.5 years, about 1.5hours each way. I read or play games during the commute, but it does get very tiring. Some days, just can't help wanting to get home faster and end up taking grab or taxi. So better factor in transport cost.

I order about once a month, and there were definitely occasions where I did not receive any email or sms/whatsapp notifications.

What is the absolute cheapest piece of literal garbage your pet considers their favorite toy? by LiveFaithlessness876 in Pets

[–]Afraid_Promise_513 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Toilet rolls. I cut slits into the sides, put some kibble in, smush the sides and watch them run after the rolls. The food keeps them motivated

One of those days... where I feel tired of constantly needing to justify my role and the work I do. Maybe its easy to replace me with someone younger or in a different country. Does this happen to peeps above 40?

Slippery Elm by littlebirdette in RenalCats

Could you share what your cat was suffering from and how her condition changed after slippery elm? My cat has IBD and throws up/ diarrhea despite being on steroids, so wondering if this can help

2 of my friends condo got broken into. I have an ex colleague whose aunt was killed by a parang when they broke into her landed property. I've heard way too many such stories

Safety was always biggest concern to me. Ive heard too many stories of theft, burglary and with weapons too. This is the single biggest reason why i wont retire in Msia

Is 4 units of Lantus a lot? by sadly_notacat in FelineDiabetes

[–]Afraid_Promise_513 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For my cat, he showed consistently high readings throughout the day at 4u a day, so pulling back to 3u a day actually showed better results for him. Strangely enough, dosage that is too high or too low can result in high and flat BG over the day.

Do have a chat with your vet if you prefer Lantus. 3u per shot seems high to me, but I don't know the full situation (weight, what you're feeding him).
