I'm starting to see a pattern with her #s with this new feeding schedule. I'm liking this new pattern. :) Her PMPS #s are FINALLY below the 100 mark. :) :RAHCAT :mrgreen: Oh, happy day! :) And the AMPS #s are slowly, but surely, coming down, also. :) I'll be adding an additional 0.50 oz. of FF T&G to her last meal of the day to tide her over until morning. It's the longest stretch between meals, and she's been asking for more food. I can't deny her that. I'll be watching her little weight, too. :) If it makes a difference in her weight, then that will have to be removed, and she'll be back down to 7 oz./day of FF T&G and the 1.0 oz of steamed chicken like normal.

Hope everyone is having a good morning so far. :)

MY WISH: For God to help heal the broken hearts of those who have lost a beloved pet and/or human, and help those that have gone through disasters... For God to continue to help Sienne's sister overcome her ailment, and make a full and speedy recovery... For everyone to have great #s... For everyone to be OTJ.

Yay!!! Way to go Blackie! That is so nice to see.

I got a wake up call at 2 am this morning wanting more food. Like a good bean, I got up and made a mini meal for my master. :lol: :lol: :lol: That is a long stretch to go. Fortunately, Tarragon lost soooo much weight (went from 13 pounds to 8 pounds) that he is a long way from being overweight.

Hope you have a wonderful green day!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Angela, loved your prayer and wish for today.

Blackie is looking fabulous!! I give Simon a meal at the +7.5 mark during the middle of the night and it seems to have helped his AMPS numbers somewhat. I only give a teaspoon and that seems to do the trick. Have a wonderful day.
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126

I gave her the usual 1 oz. of food at +2, but she was really insistent that I give her more, so I gave the 0.50 oz. extra. That did the trick to make her quiet. LOL :) She did look at me as if to say, "Thank you". :) I'll be watching her weight. DH says that she's overweight, but she's not. Granted, she DOES have a mommy tummy due to the kittens being born and her being fixed, so he contributes that to being overweight. She has a waistline. On the scale, she looks to be about a 4. The mommy tummy doesn't count as being overweight, does it?

One thing I have noticed about her is that she's doing things that she used to do before being diagnosed. Like, looking out the front glass door when the main door is open... Jumping into my lap a bit more... Sitting between us on the couch a tad more (still not often, of course, as she never did that too often before). Little things like that. Definitely more 'tudy towards the others. LOL That'll never change. I'm not sure how much sleeping she does during the day, however, she appears to be a bit more awake than normal. Could be my perception of what's going on with her, who knows. LOL

Regardless of all that, I think I'm getting my Blackie back. :)

Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126

That is the best news... to hear a kitty is going back to their normal behavior due to feeling better. I love this!
Beautiful green SS for Blackie. You are doing a great job.

And your wish is lovely, just lovely.
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126

Blackie seems like she is feeling much better from your report of her behavior and patterns. That is so great to hear. Nice AMPS this morning, too. Have a nice day.
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126

Bandit used to be very obese, and now he has a permanent skin flap under his belly that droops a bit. When you feel it, you can tell it's skin and not fat. I bet Blackie has the same thing from her pregnancy and weight loss?
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126, +4 63

+4 63 - no food (despite the fact that she's bugging me again LOL... She'll simply have to wait.. Just 3 more hours).

Julia, that's exactly what she has. In fact, the other females have a tummy, too, after their hysterectomies. Shadow, outdoor kitty, not sure if she's ever had kittens as we adopted her from across the street 2 years ago. Aurora, don't think she's ever had kittens, and she's lean. The 2 female kittens of Blackie, I KNOW they've never had kittens as they got fixed before they could get to that point (thank goodness). LOL But they have a tiny tummy from their surgeries. Otherwise, they're not skinny, and they're not overweight. DH seems to think that Bubba's a bit overweight, however, he's a big boned kitty, and he eats the same time as everyone else. I just make sure that he doesn't eat too much as he tends to gorge, and then throw it back up. Both he and Aurora are the same in that aspect.
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126, +4 63, +5 57

+5 57 - no food (yet)

Ok, Miss Blackie is bugging me again for more food. What do I do? She's not due to have her midday snack (which is 1.0 oz. of steamed chicken) until +7. Only 2 hours away. As I sit here, watching tv in the office, she's come back to me, meowing. I reached out to pet her, only to have her turn away from me and start to walk in the direction of the kitchen. LOL Her lil miss shiny self is letting me know she's definitely hungry. And she's laying on the carpet between me and the door. *sigh* I just gave her an extra 0.50 oz. earlier this morning, which brings her FF total today to 7.5 oz. I wonder where she's putting it all? LOL
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126, +4 63, +5 57

do you mix water in with her food? I've found bandit will bug me less when I mix half water in . makes him think he's eating more!
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie AMPS 126, +4 63, +5 57

No, I don't, unfortunately. LOL I could add a tsp. of water to her PMPS meal. She's got 1.5 hours left of waiting until her chicken. LOL She's doing very well today. :) I'm pleased! Again, thank you! :)
 
Re: 06/08 Blackie PMPS 103

PMPS 103, 3.50u, 1.5 oz. FF T&G

Well, after being spoiled with 3 nights' worth of :mrgreen: , I was a smidgen surprised by this low blue. I wonder if I shouldn't have given her the 0.50 oz of extra FF earlier today...? Well, tomorrow's another day.

Hope everyone had a good day of #s today! :)
 
+4 75 - no food

I initiated a bit of exercise for her this evening. :) And she's sitting next to my desk meowing. Looking at me with those bright yellow eyes of hers. Feeding is done for the day. On to a new day. Night all.
