Happy Sunday!
Yesterday: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=129181
After a nice evening yesterday, our RB decided to bounce. He seems to be clearing it quickly today, though, so that's good. He still refuses to eat the 8% carb food, so he's getting only 3% kitty crack.
The saga of the timed feeder continues. Last night, I didn't try it, because I felt really unsettled and was watching him closely. This morning after the usual routine, I filled it and set it for +2, then went back to bed. After I finally fell asleep around +1, he decided the join me. The feeder popped open on schedule, but he didn't have a clue! Slept through the whole thing. So before leaving for church, I filled it again.(by fill I mean a quarter of a can of FF) and set it for two hours later, making sure Mikey saw the whole thing. He camped out by the feeder, but apparently once I left, he gave up and went to bed. I came home to an open feeder and a sleeping cat. Stink'ear. The question now is, do I need to confine him to the spare bedroom with the feeder so he'll eat tomorrow? I hate to keep the guys away from each other all day, but what will happen if he doesn't eat the food? We're trying to find a way to attach a bell that would ring when it opens, but that will take some figuring and then some training, and I'm still not sure he'll wake up.
I hope everyone is having a great day today. I'm glad your mom is improving Marje. I'm heading up the attic to get a few decorations out. Not too much though, because I know what I put out I'll have to clean up.

Hope Mikey is doing well.
