Good morning,

Yesterday’s post:

I might have to be late tonight for PM shot. Worst case 2 hours late, but I really hope not.

In preparation for that, I’m assuming you would withhold food during the delay? Then I’ll follow the procedure for walking back over the next couple days.

Have a nice day! - Tim

The requirement of not feeding 2 hours before the shot is more for inexperienced caregivers who aren't used to shooting/ handling lower numbers.

Oh ok, so in theory I could keep the feed schedule the same. Thanks Bhooma!

I think if you are 2 hours late, it might be better to feed him at your regular shot time, if you use a feeder (I think you do), and then as you say, walk back to your normal time.
Or just skip and consider this as a fur shot.
And lastly, do not stress too much about that, it is not worth it

Thanks Cecile! I’m glad I asked. It feels so selfish to have to potentially disrupt his schedule. But I’ll try not to worry, I’ve seen it here, the cats bounce back.

If you can adjust your future shooting schedule, you could shoot late and work back to your usual shot time over the next few days. If not, like Cecile said, you can just skip. He will recover.

Working back is no problem. I am more concerned about if I keep the feed schedule, and shoot late, he’ll have food at different parts of the cycle than he’s used to. But I can monitor so we’ll get through it…

Haha, that’s too funny. I made it back on time! But definitely am going to save this thread for future reference.
