07/08 Cooper AMPS 271 +2 269 +4 241 +6 237 +8 246 +10 298 PMPS 362

In answer to your question in yesterday’s thread about automatic feeders, a lot of people seem to Like the petsafe feeders that have I think 2 or 5 compartments. @Diane Tyler's Mom may be able to tell you more as she lives in the US.
It may not be bouncing. It could be lack of duration which will improve as you get closer to the best dose.
Let’s see how the curve goes.
 
Could just be a fluke or a "good day", but Cooper seems to be feeling good today. The past week he was back to visiting the water bowl a ton and seemed even more food obsessed than usual, which is how he acted right before diagnosis. Maybe the antibiotics for the UTI helped him feel a bit better because he seems very content today. Hopefully means we're getting closer ❤️
 
These numbers are very different from what I'm used to seeing. Is this a good sign that they are so consistent or is that strange? And I would assume I need to move to 1.75U at this point?
 
Okay, will do! Would you say at +1 and another at around +3?

Also, to be sure, about how much should a "snack" be? I was giving a quarter of the can, but is that too much? Too little?

I would give a snack at +1 +3 and +5 or 6 (both cycles)
It is best to feed all the cycles the same.
A snack is a teaspoon or two of normal low carb food.

Hi Gabrielle
I see a lot of members use this auto feeder comes with 2 ice packs for wet food
They also add some water to the food so it won't dry out

I ended up ordering this, it'll be here Tuesday! :joyful: I can't believe they make you order the stainless steel bowls separately lol! Just another way to get more money, of course. Thank you for your recommendation!

Tyler says thank you lol you couldn't have joined a better group, The experienced members here helped me get Tyler into remission with their advice.
It took me 2-1/2 years but we did it. He's been in remission since 1-24-21 diet controlled . :bighug::cat:

That's so awesome to hear!! So happy for you and Tyler :cat: I'm so glad I found this group because almost everyone in my life thinks I'm crazy and "making Cooper suffer" by doing all of this. They don't realize that with some patience and care, he will get better!
