Our thoughts are with Amy and Mark today because we know they, as everyone in LL, are worried about Trixie. Lots of prayers and vines for Miss Trix today. Also sending them to Minka, Sasha, and Harvey; Skinky; and Mikey's mamabean, Mary.
It's been a bit of a busy morning here. Gracie scarfed/barfed her breffis which she hasn't done in some time now. It is possible that the mix of Merrick food and Honest Kitchen didn't go down well or she just wolfed her chicken treats but it was up in a heartbeat. I waited a few minutes and refed her and about 20 mins later, she tossed up just liquid....no food really. I gave her 1/8 of a cerenia and 1/4 ondansetron. Weird thing was she seemed to feel absolutely fine. She ate well both times and then played while I was waiting to let the meds take effect. She didn't act nauseous but I gave it as a reinforcement for the cerenia. She's done fine with all her other fuds this morning.....of which she's had a lot.
Well....looks like our record for dose holding is over! Of course, LBG can't just make the statement subtly. I have to speculate that this might also have to do with the vomiting this morning but, OTHO, when I tested her at +2, she was flat and you'd think if numbers were going to drop from less food, she would have done it earlier. She gave not one single hint that she was coming down. She was lying on her back in our room at +3 and I took her regular breffis in. She ate pretty much all of it but didn't act like she was starving. Then she hippity hopped into the library and acted like she wanted to go out on the catio and then came back and hopped on the counter like she wanted some FD chicken. I thought I should just check her....glad I did. Lil Stink'ear!!!!
When I got up to test her at +9, she was lying next to me on her side on the bed but she had her hip rolled open and one leg tossed out straight on Mike's pillow (so it was elevated) and her head turned upside down sound asleep. She did not move a hair the entire time I was up, getting testing stuff, told her I was going to poke, poked, kissed her fur. Of course, she is always so great with her tests but it just made me think of all those vets who think our kitties will hate us by home testing them. She couldn't give a flip less.
Have a wonderful day. Stay warm and dry!!

And Gracie - really no need to get so dramatic this morning!
