Yesterday

Good morning!

Buddy had great numbers yesterday and I am sure he snuck out last night to take a little dip but I slept through my alarm and missed it.

I am considering a dose increase, What do you think?

I also have a hard time getting him to eat 1/4 can in 1 sitting, He will eat about half of it and then I have to chase him down with the bowl and sit with him so he will eat the rest. Would just splitting it up even more like 1/8 can ever other hour or so be ok to do? (of course there are those odd times when he will devour 1/4 can and ask for more.)

ETA: I have 4 other cats. I am working on switching them all over, but even after that, I also have a dog, so no food can be left out.

 

I can’t answer re: the dosecrease but I don’t think you have to worry if Buddy doesn’t eat right away, if you leave the 1/4 can out will he come back to it later? As long as he’s eating through the day it should be alright

 

I guess I should add that I have 4 other cats. I am working on switching them all over, but even after that, I also have a dog, so no food can be left out.

 

I am thinking about this Microchip Auto Feeder
But it is a bit expensive. :/

 

92 at +2 woo! early green start!

So now my first reaction is to NOT feed him, He got his meal at AMPS 1/4 can, but if I feed him now it will knock him out of green. Maybe just see if he is lower at +3 then feed. UGH! IDK!

 

That is a nice drop and @+2 could indicate an active cycle. I would have just given him a tsp of LC to slow him down and help him to surf a bit.

 

Yeah its a struggle, Haha, don't want him to drop to fast but don't want to send him back to the blues either. :/

 

Wish he would surf just a little bit longer!

 

Wow! Nice long stretch!

 

Often a small bit of LC when they first hit green can actually help them surf the nice green numbers.

I think Buddy made his position known on the idea of an increase. Not much room for an increase with nadirs in the 60’s.

 

Yep that is what I was thinking too! Hope he keeps this up!

 

I want one too! (But why? Lol As Ming is the king of this house and has all of us eating out of his paws.)

I think it would be a good investment. Meanwhile, maybe Buddy needs some alone time in another room away from the rest of the crew if leaving out food is the only option.

 

Wow Sandra and Buddy!! Very nice!

 

Nice surfing today.
