Saturday evening the vet said she was doing fine, "very grumpy"

She's had reactions before - her not eating or not willing to eat. Nothing
like this however. We had been monitoring her and adjusting her insulin as
required. I guess I missed this one entirely. We have Karo Syrup for her as
well. As for how she's doing, she was quite po'd at us - I assume for
leaving her at the emergency clinic. She was po'd at everything to say the
least, if any of the ferrets came within a few feet of her, she would swat
at them. At one point I think she was actually stalking the smallest one.

Sunday she was back to normal - she actually sat downstairs with us by the
fireplace while we were watching some DVD's.
