7/21 Perry AMPS 484, +6 294, +8 170 | PMPS 199, +3.67 139 (pic w auto feeder)

Hopefully today is our last day wondering how much the meat popsicle influenced Perry's AMPS. Amazon says the automatic feeder arrives today! Getting out for a trail run now. Gorgeous cool morning here, the heat wave has moved on.

Hope all the kitties and humans have a good one today

 

Oh Perry, red just isn't a good colour for an orange kitty! How about some blue today?

 

Hope he comes down a little today and you have a nice trail run!

 

I suspect he'll at least come down into the yellows. He's been hanging out in lower numbers mid-cycle lately.

 

Perry, please get off the trampoline and tell Phoebe Squeak to come with you. Hope you all enjoy your day. Glad the heat wave moved on. Ours is supposed to leave tomorrow.

 

Perry is staying high in solidarity with PS, I think. We're in the yellow now at 294 at +6. I'd love to see both our kitties drop lower!

 

Took a while, but Perry finally made it to the blues!

 

Way to go Perry!

 

Nice nadir for Jerry today - not all nadirs have to be a perfect 80.

"heat wave" in Austin, TX is:
typical July = 95-100 = we are hot and baking
heat wave = 100-105 = we are still hot and baking

 

I’m glad Perry had a nice slide today

I hope that he does well with the feeder, Let us know how it goes

 

Nom nom nom nom so far, @AmandaE

 

He’s a natural!! What a smart boy!! So handsome too

 

Mr. Perry says thank you!

 

Hi Perry!
How long did it take since diagnosis to make it to the blues???

 

A while, because we had food issues that led to digestion issues. He went on Purina DM savory (which is 10% carb, so really too high) on June 12 just to get him eating the same food really consistently AND pooping consistently. Meanwhile, we were learning to dose consistently and had some fur shots sending him sky high. It was all kind of awful and scary. But we have been weaning him off the DM and onto a 6% ProPlan. I think that's what finally brought us to where we are now -- hopefully starting to get him fine tuned in safe numbers and eating a proper LC food that he digests easily without GI problems. Really, fingers crossed here, because everything feels extremely day to day with this disease, and as they say, every cat is different.
