This is the 6th cycle on this dose. Safe to assume the previous depot is not at play. If he dips below 50, you are good for another reduction!

now we gave him some honey, i doubt he will dip below 50 after thatThis is the 6th cycle on this dose. Safe to assume the previous depot is not at play. If he dips below 50, you are good for another reduction!
if he does he is definitely ready I am worried to reduce too quickly not to break his progress but i understand that holding artificially for too long to the dose can cause him to dip too low too quickly when he decides to
and this starts happening exactly when you get used to not having to take decisions every single day

You basically want him to dip on Denis' watch.now we gave him some honey, i doubt he will dip below 50 after that
When they are done with a dose, they are done!I am worried to reduce too quickly not to break his progress but i understand that holding artificially for too long to the dose can cause him to dip too low too quickly when he decides to

haha, i wouldn't want that on Denis ))
For now Chico is up to 65, do you think we have to measure in half an hour or 1 hour is enough? i am thinking he has honey high for half an hour so another hour should be fine, no?

Honey was at +2.5, right? Yes, you can wait for an hour to test. (+4)

Yes, the honey was @ +2.5, so we will let him rest and groom (
) until +4

Chico was never so perseverant with the 50s when he was on 2 units, he is really trying to get another reduction...

Back down at +4. Is he due for another meal now?
No harm in letting him take it. He is holding the reductions and it's not too soon.

yes, he got another 15g of food, no honey though... we will test in another 30 min
usually he is much more active at +2 +3 by +4 he is settled in his numbers...

the honey is probably causing his numbers to bob up and down.usually he is much more active at +2 +3 by +4 he is settled in his numbers...

Member Since 2021
it looks like it, usually after the honey wears off he stays in reasonable numbers
i guess he wants to challenge us on what reasonable is haha

i checked under dogs but i am afraid they wouldn't have the nutrients that cats need :-? i am too new at the raw thing to be able to judge if it is ok or not... but even for dogs they have only freeze dried snacksYou probably need to look under dogs
