Amazing isn't it how we can be so happy one day, and so down in the dumps the next... :roll: :roll: Sunday was so great, yesterday the pits.... I had really hoped that the amps from yesterday would carry forward, but alas... it was not meant to be. The Nanner King decided that the stratosphere need some serious exploring, so off he went.. wayyyyyyyyyy upppppppppppp thereeeeeeeeeeeee..... Hello? Earth to Mannie! Anybody there? :roll: Mannie is definitely going to have to enroll in remedial LTS... well, it's just a few numbers in a sea of thousands, so today we start anew, hope for good things. Right Mannie? Lubs ya big guy cat_pet_icon

All is well in MannieLand. Oddly enough, we are still whackless in the mornings. :shock: What is up with that? I kinda miss all the whacking! :lol: :razz: Kitty choir made their appearance though - phew! another morning where I did not hear the alarm. Thank you BJ for all those bellows in my ear that got me up. We had a great test feed shoot this morning: lots of purrs and head rubs from the Nanner King! Still the kneads too. :razz: Breffis was consumed with gusto, clean plate club status maintained, the auto feeder continues to be used:I still have to run interception though - as Elsa heard the feeder too, and thought maybe she could sneak in a chomp or two without Mannie noticing. as if... :roll: Sheshhhh -I may have to get her her own feeder. :lol: :lol: We are a chilly 37 here this morning, rains looming yet again. Funny how the furkids always know, and have retreated to their beds. Mannie's is, of course, the nanner pile. After he fixed the though. Today's arrangement? a circle, with him in the middle. Normalcy in MannieLand.

Have a great day everyone!! I am off later today to Seattle, to have coffee with a friend. YAY!!!! A trip to the "Big City". It should be fun.

Hey everybody!! WOW!!!!! What a party for Rusty! That was so fun!! I lubs that winder sports stuff so so cool. and the fuds!! **SWOON**..... What'd'ya guys wanna do today? I am ready for anything! Road trip? beach? sun? let me know!! ~ Mannie

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350

I had hoped to add photos from yesterday's hike on Mannie's condo, but I can't seem to get them to upload. Sheshhhhh.... it took me 30 minutes alone just to get the board to accept/post Mannie's condo. Anybody else having issues this morning?

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350

no whacks in the morning? hmm I still say they're plotting something, be careful! :lol:
Hope Mannie comes down. Come now Mannie you know you can do it!

Have a wonderful day

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350

morning Iorwen - I hope you are right... I do so hate pink... and affirmative on the no whacking - I had better watch them closely... :lol: :lol:

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350

Hi Mannie & Michelle,
Mannie, it's time now! Come on down to better numbers and make your mamabean happy.

Michelle, have a lovely day in the city and a nice lunch with your friend. I guess it's raining in Seattle, too!!!!

I thought the board was slightly slower this morning, but I'm not having trouble posting. I'll be looking forward to seeing your pics from yesterday's hike.

Thanks again for visiting Rusty's anniversary condo.
Ella

Yo Mannie, That sure was a fun party! Thanks for bringing all my favorite foods! Are there any leftovers? We can munch on them today while we chillax. I'm ready for a sunny beach. See ya soon,
Rusty

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317

317 @ +2. well, at least he is coming down...

Morning Ella - so agreed on the numbers... where or where did that steady eddy blue and green kitty go that used to live here.... :roll: and yep, we are due for mroe rains this afternoon. Maybe they will miss us. :lol: OK on the board... i had such problems this morning - still can't get the photos to post. oh well, maybe tomorrow on that.

Hey Rusty! I know!! What a good time! and yupp - lots of leftovers. I made bunches so we could have same. let's find beach then and just hangout today. See you soon!! ~~ Mannie

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317

Every day is a new day! The ups and downs with FD are a little tiring though, especially for those of us with kitties who are anything but flat. :lol: I hope Mannie comes down gently into the yellows and blues for you today Michelle! Have a blast in the big city.

Hey Mannie - I'm up for whatever. Last night was so fun at Rusty's and I'm still kind of full but the beach sounds good. - Tarragon

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317

I think th kitties have figured out the higher the number the fewer the pokies! I wonder if Tess was messing up my meter! Have fun today w/ friends in the city.

Mannie, we have sun! No more fog! Come on over! I'll make pumpkin bread, fresh out of the oven! -- Tess

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317

Hi Michelle, it looks like Mannie is coming down there at the +2, so it can only get better today. Yes, I think Elsa wants her own feeder, but then I wouldn't be surprised if she still wants Mannie's, too! :lol: Enjoy your day in Seattle today. I'm going to try and do the same, only not in Seattle. I hope it warms up there today.

Sounds good Mannie with the beach at Tess' s today. I'll be waitin at the curb, Maggie

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317

What is up with Mannie? At least the +2 is a little better.

I'm glad to hear that other than the AMPS, there is normalcy in Mannieland. Now I can relax and know that things are going to be ok today! If Mannie is well, than we all should follow his lead and have a wonderful day, too.

Have fun in the city!

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270

Beware of plotting kitties!

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270

270 @ +4. well - YAY! we made yellow!

Hi Melissa - that it is. He has managed to find the yellow floor - so maybe? YAY!! Blues might be next. And thanks - it is always fun to head on into Seattle.

Hi Ann, and Miss Tess - oh :lol: :lol: on the fewer pokies theory - could be huh! hmmmmmmmmmmm...... hadn't thought of the meter theory. Mannie? dude? got anything you want to confess?

Hi Ann, and Miss Maggie - yep! down at +4 too, so getting better. I think so on Elsa... it is always greener on the other side - I would say that she would still want Mannie's - she always thinks he has better fuds. :lol: :lol: :roll: thanks on Seattle - it will be fun!

Hi Georgia - oh boy, and whoknows huh. But yes, the +2 and the +4 are better. Hoping he keeps on heading down. Right Mannie? and thanks! City will be good - it always is!

Hey Maggie - OK,k let's do it! See you at the curb. ~~ Mannie

Hey Tess - we are on our way. Sun would be sooooooooo good! we gots lots of clouds and some of them look like they have lots of that wet stuff in them.. i dunno... no point in waiting here to see - I am on my way! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Pumpkin bread???????????????????? I am SO THERE! ~~ Mannie

Hey Mr T! me too on the full thing... I ate too much... Looks like we are off to Tess's - she's got sun! we gots clouds.... See you there! ~~ Mannie

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270

Hi Linda - :lol: :lol: that was very good. I had better watch out - they do most of those things... :roll: :roll: :shock:

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270

UH OH!!! Moonie is gonna come after me!!!--Accordiung to the plotting chart!

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270, +6.5 224

224 @ 6.5. well - YAY! Still coming down. Go Mannie, but slowly...

Hi Roni - I know! according to that chart I am doomed! :lol: :lol: and yes, that we do: enjoy every day - it is all we have. And I think Mannie is getting with it! Paws crossed!

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270, +6.5 224

Re: 11/29 Mannie AMPS 350, +2 317, +4 270, +6.5 224, +11 201

201 @ +11. WOW!!! Look at that +11... omg, maybe we might get a great PM cycle. GO MANNIE!

Very good celi!! Loved that... that would be my boy!

Re: 11/29 Mannie PMPS 217 ~ BJ/E labs

217 @ PMPS, + a civvie food raid... an inattentive bean for a few seconds and in he went for the kill... sheshhhh! :roll: :roll: I have no clue how much he ate... guess the +2 will tell all. :lol: :?

and for those of you who asked: BJ's and Elsa's BW came back today. They renal values remain constant, so it looks like the diet change is sufficient for now, to keep the numerous in line. I will have BJ rechecked in three months to see if there is any significant difference.
Elsa: BUN 30 (39 3 months ago), Creatinine: 1.9 (1.5 3 months ago), B/CR Ratio: 16 (26 3 months ago)
BJ: BUN 50 (61 3 months ago), Creatinine: 2.8 (2.7 3 months ago), B/CR Ratio: 18 (23 3 months ago)

Re: 11/29 Mannie PMPS 217 ~ BJ/E labs

hooray for good labs!!

and I don't know how i missed linda's "plot chart"...hilarious!

Re: 11/29 Mannie PMPS 217 ~ BJ/E labs

Maybe Mannie and Zener want to be the first Catronauts on Mars? That could explain their sky-high numbers lately. :lol:

Come on down Mannie, you know Zener follows your lead! :roll:

Re: 11/29 Mannie PMPS 217 ~ BJ/E labs

I can attest to the kneading: Rusty always goes for the same spot on my abdominal muscles and it is really sore!! He's practicing for something!! Linda, that chart is hilarious!

Mannie, you can't eat contraband and expect to see blue!!

Good report on the girls' labs, Michelle.
How was your city lunch?

Enjoy the evening,

Ella & Rusty

Re: 11/29 Mannie PMPS 217 ~ BJ/E labs

Hi everyone!

Hi Ella - I know on the kneading - and they always seem to put out heir claws... OW! I wonder what Rusty is practicing for? :lol: and I know on the contraband - silly boy! lunch was great - she was delayed a little, but no matter - we still had a good time!

Hi Anne - Catronauts!!! :lol: that is too funny - good be! Mannie sure does like the high elevations. :lol: :lol: I hope he comes down too... +2 coming up here shortly....

Hi Celi - SO agreed on the labs - hooray, and what a relief.

Re: 11/29 Mannie PMPS 217, +2 213 ~ BJ/E labs

213 @ +2. not too bad, considering the contraband...

234 @ +4. flat and yellow and surfin'...

flat flat flat almost blue....perhaps he will come down into blue tonight and then tomorrow be green!!!! That would be awesome!!!

The girls bw looks great!! You are doing a superb job of keeping them nice and steady. Really great results!!

Nice yellow surf, remember what Sienne always says about that.

Nice that the girls numbers are coming down, what are you feeding?

Hi Marje - yep, flat and yep, almost blue... nice and steady. Paws crossed that he finds the blues... I'll take that for now. Thx on the BW for the girls - it was good to see that it hadn't changed to significantly and brought some levels down. YAY! Not too bad for BJ - a young 18 yrs.

Hi Ann - i know on the yellows, and I keep waiting.... :lol: :lol: come on Mannie! time to get it moving.... It was good on the numbers for the girls. Right now the main food is the Royal Canin Modified Renal LP (and thanks for the info on that the other day btw), with a little Hill's SD adult, small cans, a little Merrick BG. The bulk is the Royall Canin. I wanted to see if diet would help BJ, and it seems it will, before branching out with other foods. We tried the Hills KD and omg - that was a major turn up your nose no way will i eat that look - from both of them. I do appreciate you listing the phos levels in tess's condo - helps to know what other foods people are feeding.

that plotting pic failed to address the "run between the bean's feet while they are walking" tactic. it only LOOKS like they're excited, really, they're practicing their bean trip-up plan! :lol:

ok mannie, you've made your point. climb down off of the ceiling now! :mrgreen:
