3/18 Trixie AMPS 240 +3.75 117 +6 87 PMPS 107 +2 152

Yesterday

Thank you everyone, for visiting Mario's celebration yesterday! It was a tough day, for sure...I still miss him very much, every single day.

I was not thrilled with Trix's AMPS, but she's lookin' good with that +3.75! Today's breffis was EVO 95% chicken and turkey. It got so-so reviews from Trix. She ate about 90% of it, but wasn't touching the rest for nuthin'. She kept going back sniffing, digging, then walking away in disgust...until I busted out a little plop of her beloved Fancy Feast. I can't stand this fuds switch. I don't like her not being completely happy about what she eats.

But, I do think I can keep her interested by offering a whole lot of variety. At the same time, most of these lower phosphorous fuds are a bit higher in carbs than I like, even though they are still considered LC. We may have to compensate by raising her dose a bit...that'll have to be the compromise of keeping both the early CKD and diabetes in line at the same time. We'll see...we're just a few days into this, but for the most part, her numbers have been higher ever since we started the switch.

I'm off today....no errands or Trader Joe's, but lots of chores, and maybe even the taxes - woohoo!

Many prayers for Linda as she mourns the lose of her sweet little Weezer.

Have a great day, LL!

Morning Amy, little Trixie has come down nicely. Mags also has Evo Turkey and Chicken for two breffifs. She seemed okay with it this time, go figure! :? It's so true with the lower phosphorus being higher in carbs. I've had to adjust her dose to compensate. Which flavor FF does Trixie eat. Have a nice day with the catch up stuff.

Trix eats the Classic Chicken Pate...but the phosphorous is definitely too high for her. Still, I'm holding some cans in reserve as emergency back-up.

Morning Amy, Nice slide for Trixie! Sorry to hear that she is still not terribly pleased with her fuds, but the zoomies are great, and so are her numbers! Hope you enjoy your day off and Trix surfs the green for a bit.

Yeah Lagoon :RAHCAT Zoomies? That's hilarious Amy!!!

Friskies Special Diet T&G for din-dins, and a nice little fuds spike to match. I just had a gut feeling that EVO twice in one day would be pushing my luck...she CPCed the T&G.

Hi Amy - nice to see those greens today.

yupp the friskies does that to Mannie too: fuds spike in addition to his natural tendency to do that anywyas. It is so hard to know what to feed, that they will like and want to eat when one is dealing with multiple health issues. I struggle with this everyday. Variety and a change up everyday is helping Mannie. A hassle though.... I wish you much luck!

Have a great evening!

I can so relate to the food hunt and trying to find an acceptable variety.
i'm about ready to try making my own. ( of course she'll eat it for a few tries and then turn her nose up on that too)

Hope you can find some.
here's a new food ...
maybe something to look into if they would share info....
