Pumpkin's AMPS number was pretty consistent with yesterday's.

When I got home I realized I made a terrible mistake: I left Pumpkin's feeder up on the kitchen counter where she can't reach it. That means she didn't have anything to eat between her meal with her shot and +10. Her meals are spaced out a fair amount, so instead of her normal 160 calories between the AM and PM shot, she just got 64 calories.

I tested her along with her make-up meal (not the full 96 calories she missed out on, but something to tide her over until the PM shot) and she was at 376! It seems kind of surprising that after getting so much less food than normal she was still that high. But, it's not like she had nothing to eat this morning. Not sure if there's anything to read into that or not. (Other than the obvious, which is to double check the feeder before leaving!)
 
Adding her PMPS and +1 numbers, which were 361 and 338. After not eating for 10 hours she was at 376, then two hours after meal 361, then an hour after another meal (and a shot) she was at 338. Maybe this is all just random noise from the measurements, but it's just surprising to me that her numbers would trend down or at most be flat as she eats her first meals in almost half a day.
