Xander 10/1 AMPS 162 +2 75 +3 78

Yesterday's post

Good morning! Xander had another higher AMPS this morning, but fell back quickly to his usual nadir. Those morning pre shots sure are stubborn.

Have a great surf everyone!
Hi Albert, I see you giving a small LC snack around +9
To help bring the preshots down a bit.
Maybe post a question in your title to see if anyone has any more ideas to get those numbers down.
Xander’s cycles are so good 💖🌊🏄

Aww thank you!

I'm currently only doing the +9 snack in the PM. I think it could help out with the AMPS as well, but it would be so early for me to wake up. I've thought about an automatic feeder but I feel like Xander has to be directed towards the food to eat it, especially before Flare gets there.

Well, I guess you won’t know if you don’t try 🤷‍♀️

I use a feeder to give Ivy a snack at +8 (2:30 am) and she eats it.
But she’s my only cat.
I got her used to the feeder in both cycles at +1, 2 and 3 (even if I’m home).
I wanted to get her used to getting those snacks from the feeder and not me.

Just a thought. I know you are doing as much as you can. 🥰
 
Yeah i think that is something i'll have to think about. When I was still newer to this and not feeding him on a regular schedule starting with his shot times, I would sometimes feed them some early in the morning if they started asking for it earlier. I noticed that he dropped a considerable amount from when I fed him to shot time (+10 on 8/17-8/18 or 8/21-8/22 for example).
