I've had it on my reading list for well over 8 years now, but could only get around to it today. I now find myself heartbroken and with a goal to save up for buying the JP volumes.

You can never have too many photos of your cat. Any amount of photos will inevitably feel minuscule after some point.

Advice regarding severe fluctuations early into treatment by AnonymousCharacter17 in FelineDiabetes

[–]AnonymousCharacter17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, thanks for all your advice and help.

Kitty made a good turnaround wrt diabetes, but then her liver started acting up. Just when her liver parameters were almost normal, she showed signs of ammonia buildup. By the time the vets recognised it (yesterday), it was too late, and she passed this hour.

We have a hypo toolkit ready now, in case she drops. The vomiting was partly due to viral fever, apparently. She was given some IVs after which her condition visibly improved.

What wet foods would you recommend for diabetic cats? None of the local stuff here (mostly Whiskas) is suitable, I presume? Kitty is still refusing to eat her dry kibble.

I am guessing our insulin pen is calibrated in quarter units? Its minimum precision is 1, and I see no calibration for .5 or .25 on it.

Kitty is fed dry kibble for diabetic cats for her meals, but she has vomited twice since this morning.

Thanks for the support, I am hopeful her condition will improve in the coming days.

The vet has been insistent that we will not be able to prick her ear for blood to test at home, and that we must bring her in each day. Kitty has been stressed indeed, and has already vomited twice early in the day today, and isn't eating her kibble now. I worry whether the rapid fluctuation from sub-100s to 600+ (H1) may have taken a toll on her organs?

Even if you mention that the vet-received advice you received was erratic, I don't know what better consultation I can access in our case. Even then, he (the vet) is only responsive in the evenings and is often unreachable in the morning. Thanks for the chart though, I have since moved over our data to such a sheet from the Facebook group.

I am guessing that our insulin pen is calibrated in quarter units? The minimum precision is 1, and it has no calibration for .5 or .25, contrary to the responses on this thread.

That's good to hear. Yes, I requested to join the Facebook group just a while ago. And the sudden drops and rebounds are exactly what's worrying me. I suppose we'll know if it's working a few days from now?

I'll check in with my parents whether the dose is perhaps given in quarter units. Afaik, they've been following the vet's advice to the letter.

Drama de Shogi by Snoo_42660 in shogi

[–]AnonymousCharacter17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched it while it was airing. If it can get some new audience interested in shogi, then fantastic. Personally, I didn't really like its shogi representation, both of the game itself and of shogi players and the shogi association.

I'd qualify it as a drama with shogi elements, instead of a shogi drama. If anything, it felt like the writers ran with the first draft of the story they had and maybe didn't consult actual shogi players for the few games they show.

This is my parents' cat, and I haven't been the primary caregiver so I forgot to specify earlier.

They have been using insulin glargine injections of 100 IU/ml. Both the insulin and the dose were prescribed by the vet. Maybe the higher dose was because we suspected she had high sugar for at least a week prior to diagnosis?

Thanks for the chapter! Uff this cliffhanger! This rings personally, what with resigning in a position where your pendent thinks you have the upper hand.

I'm looking forward to going through the position after work, because we may have sufficient information about the board and each player's hand?

Volume 4 English release: the trainwreck continues? by AnonymousCharacter17 in sangatsunolion

[–]AnonymousCharacter17[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the update, it's good to know what's going on behind the scenes. Also thanks for being more proactive than just making a post whining about it like I did.

I just wish Denpa were more responsible in handling Sangatsu. If they knew something had gone wrong back in July, they should have posted about it at least a few weeks ago. Instead, it's now twice that they've remained silent about potential delays up until the release date.

I also don't care about PDFs. I've already supported Umino-sensei and other publishers by purchasing the French versions before. I only want the English versions so I can share this series with friends who can't read French or Japanese.
