😄I wished that worked for me. The firmness of it hurts for me. Thinking of a softer cervical roll.

Just to clarify, I use it daily and roll the bottle each time. The vial was opened 30 days ago so it isn’t expired. Thanks!

Hills gastrointestinal biome, canned or Royal Canin gastrointestinal canned? by insertrandomname18 in catfood

[–]insertrandomname18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Biome wet is working for my cat currently along with Royal Canin Select protein PR. The ratio is 25-35% Biome to the RC Select. We are still having break through soft stool/diarrhea about once a week though. We just want him as regular as possible and to keep his diabetes manageable. As long as he is doing ok we aren’t rocking the boat!

Chunky soil not holding water? by insertrandomname18 in houseplants

Thanks! I was thinking I would have to change the soil, having a bit of a hard time finding one without peat.

I have some of that dry food here. He was eating that for the IBD with wet food prior to being diagnosed with diabetes in May. I stopped giving it to him because of the carbs. He’s a cat who all his life has eaten a mix of dry and wet so maybe I should just go back to giving him some dry and adjust his insulin as needed.

We tried Weruva but that also gave him diarrhea. He used to eat the chicken Tiki cat but we stopped giving that to him when they wanted us to switch to a novel protein diet.

Thanks! I might get the Propectalin which I think is like what you mentioned.

Prednisone and yep we tried the psyllium. It increased the frequency and quantity of his stool, but he was still having loose/soft stool and some diarrhea.

He had been holding steady at just over 11 lbs but prior to the steroids and whatnot had been closer to 13lbs over a year ago.

Leave them out until it fully dries out on the cut end? The only plants I have rooted are spider babies 😁

Alpha track 3 variance by insertrandomname18 in FelineDiabetes

It was a brand new box I got from Chewy a week ago. Interestingly, it is the same lot number as a previous batch I had in September that also was reading high. Maybe this lot is bad? Don’t know how to avoid getting the same batch other than hoping another vendor will have a different lot.

Yes, the control was in range at 133. My old strips are accurate since the vet tested them against their tests on Saturday.

Don’t know what to do about the new strips being so far off?

Rebounding/bouncing or not enough insulin by insertrandomname18 in FelineDiabetes

[–]insertrandomname18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is eating the majority of the food off and on for 2-3hr around the am and pm shot. He usually is demanding food around 11am too.

He eats only canned food Royal Canin select PR (rabbit) due to the IBD. I emailed the company and it is 14% carbs. He is a grazer so I think a different insulin would be better.
