Good morning!
AMPS 259 shooting an increase to 3.0u This is a really high dose for him and was too much last time he was on it (2018) so I will monitor closely; I also know that insulin needs change over time.

Boomer ate most of his overnight food, leaving about a tsp in 2 dishes. He called me briefly at 4:00; I didn't get up as I don't want him to get back in the habit of needing me to get up and stir his food. He called just a couple of times then came btb.

I'm at home this morning; it's DH's golf day so he'll be leaving in about an hour and will be gone until around noon. It's supposed to rain today until 2:00; right now it's foggy.

Today's photo was taken on the weekend and is a Grey Catbird. Prior to last spring I had never seen one of these birds, then a pair appeared in my yard for a few weeks! Now I see them all over the place and I do have a couple that are hanging out in my yard again. I started putting orange halves out hoping to attract Orioles and Hummingbirds; the Catbirds seem to enjoy them (so far no orioles or hummingbirds though).

Forgot to mention.....I picked up a few cans of Friskies yesterday. Currently trying "whitefish & tuna". Had the 2019 food chart with me but of course the Canadian brands are called something different than what's on the list so I did my best trying to choose 3 kinds for him but am testing only one kind at a time. He's had the whitefish & tuna twice now and has gobbled it up. (anti-jinx).

Yup Boomer does it in cycles lol but usually all I have to do is ignore his cries for help for a few nights and he learns to eat by himself. I've told him the story about the boy who cried wolf but I don't think he understood how to apply it to himself :woot::woot::woot::smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin::rolleyes:

Hahahaha! good idea... I'll have to have a story time with Mowgli tonight :smuggrin:
 
It will be nice to see Boomer in Green & blue again :)

There's times I don't want to get up when I hear my kitties call to me but I remember that they are nearly 17 years old & I never know how much longer I'll hear those little meows at night. I get up & pet them for a while & go back to sleep.
I keep telling myself to remember to be grateful for another day with them!
