I have to watch Sullivan (one of our cats) very closely whenever there’s food around (meats particularly)! He’s extremely stealthy when he wants to be. A few times I’ve gotten up to get a drink or whatever only to come back and find my sandwich or breakfast strewn across the plate and the stuffing’s gone! At the table, he gets up on the chairs and grabs what he wants if you’re not looking! Though he doesn’t seem to like peanut butter, lettuce or condiments!

Sully just wants to test your alertness and you probably don’t need to eat that- he’s taking one for the team.
Now we had a beautiful all black guy who loved peanut butter
and jelly, he’d eat the bit of bread, too,
BTW my labs were good. HbA1c 5.5% while Dexcom Clarity sill showing a GMI of 6.3%, TIR 94%, coefficient of variation 24.4.
Doc will say, “You’re doing really great.” Me, “What about these postprandial spikes requiring correction?” Him, “Don’t worry about that.”

Yeah, but with Sullivan it’s “his” team and “he” makes the decisions, definitely not a group or committee decision! 
He’s interesting, when you say “No!”, you can tell he understands you’re intent and judges whether to run awasy or he’ll freeze, not even look up, until he thinks you’re not looking and he can proceed to take over your lap or grab “his” food!
Glad you recent labs were good! My lab A1c’s are always below my GMI (90 day version) by .2 to .5; don’t think I’ve ever had one equal or above GMI. I figure it’s due to one being from blood, the other from interstitial fluid, equipment difference, and timing. Like you, I look at TIR, TITR, and COV; Trio and LoopFollow make it easy by calculating and displaying them. I don’t know if O5, T’:slim, or other do that on the fly. I think Dexcom Clarity includes them in some reports.

That’s awesome! Sounds like my recent appointments too. 
I wish it was easy for me to not worry!

I’m a Canadian snowbird and am blessed with the odd visit from the neighborhood “feral” cats at my lodgings in Grenada. Yes, I packed Party Mix treats in my suitcase.

Beauty - she’s got a look of Mog from the kids books by Judith Kerr! Does she like a boiled egg like Mog too?

Sheelah steals my chair when I get a cup of coffee or whatever. I thought I get me a swivel chair a couple of weeks ago. Guess what?

Winston is slowly making himself at home, though he and Mighty Mouse need to be separated at all times.

Your addition to the family appears fully grown; adopted? One of the wife’s and my friends foster’s cats and has several at a time!
We had one of the gray rings in your pic, but our two cats (Gilbert & Sullivan) played/slept in it like three times in a year vs their favorite…used package boxes (usually too small for their girth) preferring them head over heals more! Given the boxes are “included”/paid for and replacement readily available (usually after the old box is chewed on), the boxes are a winner! We donated our ring for others to use, though I’m sure the Salvation Army is asking, “What the heck is this thing?”! Their absolute fav toy growing up was a 4’ long 6” cardboard cement form tube from HD with holes cut into it so they could reach and “touch someone!”

No, this is a kitten. My son and his girlfriend adopted him from a local shelter. He’s not a baby but also not an adult yet. He’s about 1/2 the size of an adult currently. Kitties are so adorable. I’ve always believed they aid in human mental health.

Stopped by our vet’s office to see a friend. This sweet ginger was enjoying the nice weather outside. I’ve not seen him before. The 2 cats inside are tripods )missing a front leg. One is Lt Dan and he owns the clinic.
I thought about Gilbert and Sullivan.
Oh he loves pets.
