My cat's glucose is 70. Is this normal for a cat in remission?

Hi how are you? My cat’s name is Dimples and he is in diabetes rememission. He is 18 years old. He is off of insulin and doing well. I checked his sugar last night right after he ate and it was 70. I am just wondering what the normal glucose levels are supposed to be. I believe 70 is low. But I just wanted to to make sure, that I didn’t have to take him back to the vet for a checkup! I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you, Kaylee

Hello. The normal range of glucose for cats is 70-110, so you are on the low end of normal. This is OK & I would not be concerned about this as it is only one reading & as long as he is eating well & there is no excessive urination or water intake, Dimples is in excellent shape.
