Me & Chnoudi wish you a very Merry Christmas !!!! Love, happiness and healthy kitties!!!

I have a problem...I have to leave for Christmas lunch for 4 hours and her numbers are really strange today... Do you think t's safe to leave her??
Maybe if I gave her some mc food?? I don't know what to do, she usually nadirs at +6 but today she is still droping...
Thank you so much

 

Merry Christmas to you! When are you leaving for the luncheon?

Those numbers look pretty flat to me...

 

I have to add, Luci always has other ideas when I make plans to go somewhere - many times I've gotten all ready to go, up to and including just before walking out the door - getting that last test and finding Luci way way down...visiting the sharks! I'd take off my shoes, put down my purse...and cancel my plans

They have a way of knowing...let's see what's happening now...

 

Ohh my God! This is exactly what happened to me now. I was ready to leave and took a last test to be sure she's rising up...and tan taaan ..115. I will stay a little more to test her +7.5... yes, she's flat indeed.

 

She is pretty flat and at or near her nadir. If you give her some LC food to keep her surfing, she should be fine.
She might dip at PMPS!

 

+7.5 114....
Pff...this thing is so stressful... It's the only day I decided to leave the house...

 

121 and I' m leaving!! I gave also a tsp of lc just to be sure. Thank you so much @Sue and Luci and @Bandit's Mom, sending love and my best wishes!

 

Merry Christmas. I hope you enjoy your lunch. Thanks to Chnoudi for not dipping too low!

 

Yess!! Merry Christmas @tiffmaxee
I've just returned and to my surprise PMPS is 93! Strange things happen..

 

She’s doing so well! Bhooma predicted the lower number upon your return.

 

Yeees indeed!!!

 

Total fluke. If only I had a crystal ball to predict Bandit's numbers!

 

Hahaha! Maybe I should try to predict Bandit's numbers, as a solution

 

Please do!!!

 

+2 46

 

I didn't test +1 because she was eating at that time. She has poor appetite and I focused on that..
I just gave a tsp of 27% but she has only eaten the 1/2 of the amount of her lc food that she should have eaten after PMPS

 

@+2.5 61 I gave mc 14%.
Now @+3 54 what should I give?

 

At +2.5, +3 and +3.5 I gave a tsp of mc (14%)
Should I reduce the dose tomorrow??
I ask because we are close to the last reduction and the depot may still be in play. Thank youuuu

 

Look how beautiful that spreadsheet is getting

It is a close call because depot may still be in play but given this is the fourth cycle at the reduced dose, the dose isn’t very high (so depot is smaller), the blue cycle this morning (which makes it look to me like the depot action was probably over) and that she held the numbers nice and low rather than coming straight back with a little HC I would go ahead and take the reduction. You can always jump back up again if it doesn’t hold. If you decide not to reduce, keep a very close eye - although lol what am I saying you will clearly do that anyway

 

Thank you so much for your advice!! I will reduct and be on alert, I am not a close-eye specialist for nothing .haha
Merry Christmas!

 

You’re welcome and good luck. Keep up the good work Chnoudi

 

Hi Melita, sorry no one was around for the 2-3 hours that Chnoudi was low. Guess everyone was busy with Christmas and it was the middle of the night for me. Next time, just tag a few people like @Bron and Sheba (GA) @tiffmaxee, @Butters & Lyla., @thebigfuzz, @JaxBenji

Congrats on the reduction!

 

Sorry I didn’t notice what was going on with Chnoudi. I was working and kind of bleary eyed from my own pj party last night. You steered her well. It looks like you are getting more comfortable with feeding her through low numbers!

 

I’ve been checking off and on but missed you. Sorry about that. I agree that I would try the reduction. Congrats.

 

Merry Christmas! Good luck on the reduction

 

Chnoudi sure is keeping you busy! Look at the beautiful cycle today Hope you had a wonderful holiday

 

I didn't want to bother anyone because it was a special day

 

Yes I feel more confident and I've learned how she reacts to food. Thank youuu!!!

 

Thank you sooo much!!!

 

Merry Christmas!! thank you!!

 

Hahaha she's my sweetest trouble!
