    Macka is doing much better. He's almost completely back to health, hungry again, vocal and more energetic. I am so relieved. He eats a lot and rests a lot. Good cat. Many thanks to all of you who sent good vibes our way <3
    S. Boulardii most likely helped a lot too!

    He has had 2 cycles with blues during the last week (maybe more but I did not catch them). His water intake is overall decreasing.
    It looks like the 3u dose has some effect on him. He hasn't had any blues for weeks before so I wonder if I should still increase tomorrow or if I should wait longer to let his body get used to nicer numbers. I would like to avoid bigger bounces and go slow. What do you think?

    Thank you!!

    I'm so glad Macka is doing better. I think now that he is eating again you should increase the dose. The way to get him used to normal numbers is to get him to spend more time in them. That means increasing the dose.
