Tools for Daily Care

Last updated: 12 October 2026

Simple tools for converting readings, planning costs and preparing for vet visits. None of them give dosing or treatment advice — your vet does that.

Glucose Unit Converter

Convert between mmol/L (used in the UK) and mg/dL (used in the US). Both measure the same thing — just on different scales.

mmol/L (millimoles per litre)

Used in the UK and most other countries

mg/dL (milligrams per decilitre)

Used in the United States

Note: Your vet sets your pet's target range and tells you which readings should make you call them.

Cost of Care Planner

Add up your own monthly costs for insulin, supplies, food and insurance. It only adds the numbers you enter.

ABOUT THIS REPORT

This report summarises owner-recorded information for discussion with a veterinary professional. It does not interpret treatment suitability or recommend changes.

Example report layout • None of these are real readings

Mello's report lists the entries themselves — times, amounts, who recorded them, and which were written up later from memory — alongside the glucose figures and a chart. Your vet reads what happened, not just a percentage.

Mello is a tracking tool, not a substitute for veterinary advice. Always follow your vet's instructions for insulin timing and dosing.
