WCR: All is good with Blackie. With the help of Amy & Trixie (thank you, Amy!!!), I managed to create another SS by duplicating the first one, and doing a few tweaks so that Blackie has another tab at the bottom. I've also figured out how to move the 1 SS to the right so that the current one will be the first one that is seen. If that makes any sense. I'm not an Excel SS whiz by any means. In fact, I try and shy away from Excel at all, but I know that the SS isn't an Excel SS, but a Google Docs one.
With that being said, I've decided to continue doing what I'm doing with her, and let her tell me when/if she wants any more reductions in the future. This morning's # kind of threw me off, though, and with that kind of a #, it typically means that she threw up somewhere. I didn't see anything, though. Or, perhaps she found a contraband kibble bit, or something. Who knows. Or, and she's definitely not "normal" (covering Blackie's ears) in the sense of the word, she's throwing a very belated bounce tantrum due to the reduction quite a few days ago. There's no telling with this kitty anymore, I tell ya. :lol: All in all, though, she IS doing quite well, and is, for the most part, staying within the range, even if the PS #s are above 100 most of the time. All I can do is keep doing what I'm doing with her. If it ain't broke, don't fix.
Daisy Update: This is the 4th dose of the Doxy, and although she had a good eating day yesterday, this morning, she took to drinking more water after her meds instead of looking like she was hungry (she definitely needs her water). I had to make sure that she didn't over drink as I didn't want her throwing it back up. Medicating her seems to be getting easier with each dose, but I still hate doing it to her. Last night, she kind of struggled, but this morning, she took it in stride. Thankfully, it's only a very small amount. Then she groomed herself, and again, I had to watch her as the last time she groomed herself after her meds, she threw the whole thing up (hairball with food and meds, wasn't a pretty sight I tell you). So far today, she's eaten 15g of wet food total. I don't want to overfeed her and have her throw up, so I'll be feeding her small amounts throughout the day. She's lost a bit of weight because of this, but I'm hoping that the meds will help to make her feel better soon, and this will be the past.

MY WISH: For God to help heal the broken hearts of those who lost a beloved pet and/or human... For God to help those ailing make a full and speedy recovery... For everyone to have great #s... For everyone to be OTJ.
