Morning ~O) ~O) and thanks for the visits after I couldn't stay awake last night! Michelle, Anne & Zener (thanks for the adorable pic of the kitty dreaming of poo :-D ), Helen, Dale (we sure miss you and Max), Lisa & Leo (Maggie's bro) and Wendy (Neko).

Maggie sure surprised me yesterday at the PM +2.5 with the 72! She has never been a diver, so I thought it might be partly the fluids, but I'm not sure as she's dropped at the +2 this morning, and she rarely moves until the +5!

Major good news for Detective Poo's report -- Mags just delivered a huge poo deposit finally. It's become a pattern that she now skips two days rather than the every other day poo! I guess that's okay, but I'll check with her Vet. There's no strain and it's a good consistency, not hard and not too soft! I notice though with the Lactulose, she sometimes coughs a little. I give her a little water, as the Lactulose is a sticky, syrupy liquid, so I'll check on that also with the Vet.
Her food yesterday was mostly Special Diet Friskies T&G plus some Wellness Turkey mixed in just to make sure no pukus. She did have a small pukus this morning though right before I tested her. She was wanting more food, so thus the reason for the +2!
Have a nice day everyone! It's to be high 90's here today in my area, but slightly cooler than yesterday.
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155

yay for poo!! That is great news. Every third day now? As long as she isn't straining and it is a good one when she does I guess there are no issues. Wow on the 72 yesterday. I missed that one. That is very unlike her. Just when you think you have them figured out...

Have a great day Ann!!

I hope Maggie will keep up a blue surf.

Thanks Melissa. I thnk, too, it is probably okay with the poo for the third day. She starts feeling lethargic on the 2nd day (like yesterday). On the poo day she's back to her Maggie self, even playing with her mouse pole toy!

Hi guys .. wow, what a nice little drop for maggie! Looks like she's surfing pretty well now .. yay for a nice LB deposit! Hope you guys aren't too uncomfortable in that heat wave .. have a great day guys!
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151

Morning Ann ~O) ~O) ~O) , and just in case Mannie made this special brew, just for you. --->

What a great day for Maggie last night - all that green. Interesting too on the drops you are now seeing. Maybe just Maggie getting herself back to the numbers she knows she should be at. Sure was nice to see those greens. and nice that Maggie told you too.

WOO HOO on the prezzies! And on the good appy this morning. All is well in MaggieVille. :-D

Have a great day Ann! A walk maybe, before it gets too hot? Sch good weather you are having. We are starting to get cool here, no more 80/90 days for us!
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151

Yay for Poo! Here we all are, vicariously hovered around Maggie's LB, waiting for prezzies. Poor girl needs a little privacy! :-D
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151

Yay for poo and a beautiful blue surf!!!!

I think I'm going to get some of the Friskies, too...I want to have an assortment of stuff on hand, both to try, and to spread things out so that if one fuds ever does have an issue (such as a recall, etc), the kitties won't be overexposed to it, and it'll make transitioning to another fuds easier.

Have a great day!!!

Still surfing the blues!

Hi Devon and thanks on Maggie and checking on her. It was a nice drop. The weather is a bit uncomfortable, but today it's a few temperatures below so a little better.

Thanks Michelle on the special Mannie brew ~O) ~O) ~O) just what I needed! It was so good to see her in the greens and not expecting it. I was spoiled with her nice even surf. I should get out for a walk today, but for some reason I can't get myself put together! :lol: Maybe some more Mannie brew! ~O) ~O)

Lisa & Leo, on the "hovered around Maggie's LB, waiting for prezzies. Poor girl needs a little privacy!" :lol: I know, you guys are so great being so supportive of Maggie's poo issues! I really am grateful.

Hi Amy, I used the Friskies in the past and not sure why I stopped. Sometimes Maggie's numbers would spike and I wasn't sure if it was a particular food. I also bought a couple cans of Merrick chicken to mix in. She wasn't crazy about it as a whole entree!
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151; +5 147

HI Ann

Maggie's having a nice day, it seems. Nice blue numbers and good elimination, add up to feelin' good!! :-D

You have a good day too :-D

Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151; +5 147

Yay for blue and poo!! At least she is consistently going every 3rd day. That seems like a good sign.

Interesting that you are giving Maggie the Friskies T&G. I started buying it again because it turns out that it is the only brand that Cleo will eat anymore. I know it is probably not the best for her since she has CKD, but eating is the most important thing. If all she wants is Friskies, then Friskies it is! I seem to remember that Simon also used to spike, like Maggie, with the Friskies, but I gave him some recently and he didn't. So crazy, isn't it!

I tried to do a btd, but Mags decided I should be up and around! I do need to get busy, so good thing she doesn't want me lounging around.

Hi Barb & Checkers, thanks, I'm beginning to see that the numbers go hand in hand with her bm issues. She's kept a blue surf so far.

Hi Georgia, the SD Friskies T&G is okay on the phosphorus and under 1% on Dr. Lisa's list. I was surprised to see it there. And five (5) carbs so not too bad.

Thanks Anne & Muffin. It's not as hot today as yesterday here in my area. How is your weather? I
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151; +5 147; +7 142

what a night and beautiful day for Miss Maggie! And what a nice surf today! I like the LB report too. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I think all the different things we are trying takes a little time to settle in,, like the every third day poo. it could be the change in fuds too and she may go back to every other day. She is a cat after all. ;-)

Tess liked the Special Diet Friskies too, but it did spike her numbers. Now that I know that her regular foods were so much lower than I thought I can see why.
I also bought a couple cans of Merrick chicken to mix in. She wasn't crazy about it as a whole entree!
I'd get the BG Turkey, it has half the phosphorus. I don't know of any cats that want to eat the Merrick BG fuds straight. That's what I do w/ the Avoderm though, mix it w/ something really LC. To get the carbs for the mix add the numbers from both foods and divide by 2. Do the same thing w/ the phos. it isn't exact unless they both have the same kcal/oz, but pretty close. Individual batche of food can vary anyway.
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie AMPS 241; +2 155; +4 151; +5 147; +7 142

Thanks Ann on that with the BG Turkey and also the mixing of the two fuds. I was going to venture out today and oick up more food, but I just took a short walk to the recycling bin, and it is so hot. My car sits outside, and the door handles were even hot to the touch. I think I'll wait til tomorrow morning.

ETA: Ann & Tess, I did buy the Merrick Turkey, just checked, as it was the one on the list, thanks.

PMPS 196
We managed to stay under the blue barely.

Anne & Zener, little Maggie is thrilled to hear she has won the "Golden Poo Award!" :-D
I love the pic :lol: :lol: it is hilarious! So fitting for the occasion! That pic has to take some kind of award, too! :lol:

Thanks Leslie & Jasper so much for stopping by and congratulating Maggie. How is Jasper liking the Falls?
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie PMPS 196

Hi Ann!

I just stopped by to see how Maggie was doing. I see she won an award! Well congratulation, Maggie! Anne, that's quite a handsome award! Inspector Pooh outdid himself!

I wish I had your beautiful sunshine, Ann. We have fall already. It makes me sad because winter is around the corner.

Hugs,
Melanie & Racci
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie PMPS 196

AND THE POO OSCAR GOES TO MAGGIE!!!!WHOO HOOO!!!From Inspector Poo Too!!!
Glad she is doing so much better! I never tried the Avoderm, but Moonie does like proplan liver & chicken.lc,
and FF--She's so stuffy Moonie!!!
Hope all is well & she keeps it up --Hugs & much Love from us!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Re: 10/2 Maggie PMPS 196

Trix doesn't like the Merrick chicken by itself, either. I used to be able to mix it with Fancy Feast, but she finally refused it.

Tonight, I tried Friskies T&G with Wellness Turkey (Wellness IS getting phased out, but I want to transition her), and she LOVED it. We'll see what it does to her BG, though. So, I'm thinking maybe ust the Friskies T&G as a "flavor" enhancer for lower carb fuds, just like Ann was saying.

I hope a nice surf tonight.

Thanks Melanie. The summer did fly by so fast. The Poo Award is very unique! :-D

Hi Roni & Moonie, I have not tried the PropPlan line but did see it on the list. Moonie, stuffy, never! :-D She's a sweetie!

Amy, so glad Trixie likes the SD Friskies T&G. It's a nice consistency. I'm also still transitioning the Wellness. I also bought some Merrick Turkey, not the chicken as I thought.

Hi Lisa & Leo :-D that was clever from Georgia on the "yay for poo and blue".
